Offshore Dedicated Center[edit]

A tag has been placed on Offshore Dedicated Center, 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 or service and which 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. AecisBravado 19:40, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of MoveYourWeb[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article MoveYourWeb, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. -- Atamachat 17:35, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of MoveYourWeb[edit]

I have nominated MoveYourWeb, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/MoveYourWeb. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. -- Atamachat 22:14, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on MoveYourWeb, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

MoveYourWeb[edit]

Hello Billy. Since the last time the article was deleted I've become an administrator, and one of the tools I have now is the ability to view deleted content, which is lucky because I can see how the article looked before the last deletion.

I have to admit that there are some decent sources in there. Probably enough to satisfy notability requirements. The CNN Money review of Drunk Sniper in particular was the kind of coverage I tend to look for when establishing notability.

There's only one problem, however. Those references don't even mention MoveYourWeb at all. They do mention Apolon, which is the official developer of the games and the one that ends up in the press. An article featuring Apolon would be much easier to justify.

My suggestion is this... Don't recreate the MoveYourWeb article. Instead, create a new article at Apolon. One advantage of doing this is that you're no longer recreating a deleted article, you're creating a new article from scratch. You can certainly mention MoveYourWeb in the article, but the subject of the article must be Apolon, because that is what's notable.

Also, others have mentioned warnings about a conflict of interest. It does appear that you might be affiliated with MoveYourWeb. If that's the case, I very strongly suggest that you disclose that. Don't worry, Wikipedia doesn't have a rule that prevents you from editing articles for companies you're associated with. It only suggests that you be careful; don't turn the article into an ad for the company, don't try to own the article and prevent people from changing it in ways you don't like, and most importantly please try to keep an open mind if people have concerns about the article or your involvement with it. Whatever connection you have to MoveYourWeb or Apolon, it will help a lot if you disclose it on the talk page of the article if you create it.

Finally, be sure you include those references you used in the MoveYourWeb article the last time you tried to create it. Without proper references, any article you create is in danger of deletion. If you run into problems creating the article or with people trying to delete it just let me know. Thanks! -- Atama 18:45, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
