Please can you advise why you deleted this listing? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Roadracer1977 (talk • contribs) 15:46, 18 January 2007 (UTC).
- Howdy. It was deleted because it read like an advertisement. Such articles can be speedy deleted without discussion. If you think the directory is notable, you can try again, but re-write the article in an encyclopedic manner. Also, be careful not to copy/paste information from other websites, as that is a copyright violation and not allowed on Wikipedia. Thanks, Fang Aili talk 15:50, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
Business Magnet Directory
[edit]The article Business Magnet Directory has been 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. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. -- Merope 16:07, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
