Hello Fang Aili. I wanted to request a reason why you deleted my submission [colonies.com network]? I have provided factual information. Is there anything that I am missing that I need to add? Thanks for you help as I am new to Wikipedia.

- Another admin deleted that one--the reason given was that it does not assert notability. Wikipedia has certain guidelines for web content. You can read about them here. Cheers, Fang Aili talk 13:39, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Snowboard.com, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant 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 general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.
If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. ∴ here…♠ 02:05, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
I've requested that this page also be deleted, similar to Snowboard.com. Neither of these pages are appropriate for inclusion in the encyclopedia based on Wikipedia:Notability (web). Unfortunately, they also not appropriate for links from articles like Snowboard based on Wikipedia:External links, and will be removed shortly. Take a read of Wikipedia:Conflict of interest before further editing and consider whether you should be the one contributing this material.. and definitely feel free to drop any questions my way. Stick around and help contribute in ways other than promotion of colonies pages! ∴ here…♠ 02:11, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
