Speedy deletion of Mega Cart

A tag has been placed on Mega Cart, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of 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 our the guidelines on spam as well as the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ for more information.

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 (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Adding bare URLs as sources

I notice you have been adding bare URLs as references, such as in this edit to Sega Mega Drive. While any source is better than nothing (and thank you for adding it!), you need to include certain additional information as described at WP:CITE both to make it easier for the reader to see what the reference is and to make it easier for someone to find an archived copy if the link goes dead. The template {{cite web}} is an easy way to do this, as for example this edit. Thanks! Anomie 11:47, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That is some good information you gave me there. Thank you, I will follow this guideline in the future. Zebbe (talk) 20:10, 13 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
