Talk:List of minor state highways in Utah (closed)

Mutoh Europe nv

Why was this page deleted? Nobody had a problem with this page and now there seems to be a problem.. I fail to see why.. .IT (talk) 16:24, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've fixed the headers so they point to the right article. The article was speedily deleted as a blatant advertisement by Tone (talk · contribs). Looking at the deleted article, I'd have to agree that was the case. Endorse Tony Fox (arf!) 20:27, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In what way is it any different from the articles published about Mimaki, HP, .. It's solely stating the companies history and the like. The all rights can be deleted, but I fail to see what else is a problem. .IT (talk) 07:18, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- How can it be deleted, if they are claiming the rights then they claim the rights, you can't just delete it, that would be a viloation of there copyrights. --81.104.39.44 (talk) 07:21, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  - - You're mistaken, keeping a text to which the company claims the rights violates their copyright. - Mgm|^(talk) 10:12, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  - I got in touch with the company because of this. After talking to one of their rep's, they don't mind the copyright to be removed as long it serves the purpose to be listed on Wikipedia. .IT (talk) 08:33, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    - Well you'd need to get them to send an appropriate release to the wikimedia foundation anyway, my or your word for it is not good enough... --81.104.39.44 (talk) 19:49, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
As the instructions on the deletion review page indicate, many issues can be resolved by asking the deleting/closing administrator for an explanation and/or to reconsider his/her decision. While not strictly mandatory, this should normally be done first. Did you try, and if not, was there some special reason? Stifle (talk) 09:19, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I deleted the article as a clear G11, besides, it has a copyright tag on. I stay at my position. If anything, the article can be rewritten but in that form it is unacceptable for WP. --Tone 09:35, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I recommend for deletion Mutoh Holdings Co. Ltd. because of the same issue. WP is not a register of companies. --Tone 09:37, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yet others are not attacked about it. Mimaki has a very similar page to Mutoh's and it has not been the subject of deletion. And I can mention others. Also it's a separate page, I didn't add Mutoh's name to other pages like I've seen HP bragging on the large format printer page. Where is there advertising on Mutoh's page, does it mention marketing terms, does it try to sell something? I only states the history of a company, one of the major companies in the Ostend area. I think it's not wrong to mention a major company that is active in Flanders. .IT (talk) 09:59, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- That one is pretty bad as well. --Tone 14:44, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is generally considered a poor argument in deletion discussions. Stifle (talk) 16:15, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
