non-notable company.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Speedy deletion nomination of Direct Care Group

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Direct Care Group, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 20:17, 26 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Thank you! This is an important issue to many of us, and I'm thankful that Wikipedia was an important part of encouraging so many to contact their representatives. This was a nice refresher that average people can have a voice in Washington.

Deletion of April Masini article

edit

Hey there Bromeliad39!

I would like to thank you for taking a look at my article on April Masini. I've been working on it for a while now. I'm not sure if your message was meant to be constructive or not but I would encourage you to point me in the right direction versus outright making wild assumptions about my editorial work. If you got a chance to read the article about Masini, it's written in an objective tone and is not a promotional piece (I've been coached by a handful of editors in the community about that point). Masini's career is quite extensive, and I've researched her work as an executive producer that reads impressively with resources to prove it. If there's more that you need referenced, I welcome your feedback and points in the right direction. Also, if you would like to help and contribute to the page you're welcome to especially since Wikipedia is a community that prides itself on collaboration (no one can do everything alone, right?). Thanks for your input! Hopefully the new objective article will be restored soon! GMHayes (talk) 21:55, 19 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
