Advanced Direct page
Hi,
This new page is intended to state facts about our company, not sell our services. If you have suggestions on how to make it less "ambiguously advertising" then I would appreciate the feedback. It is my goal to include Advanced Direct among Wikipedia listings, not sell our services.
Thank you, Keatonunc (talk) 21:37, 29 June 2011 (UTC)Keatonunc
- Basically, the problem is that the article has lots of positive verbiage, but doesn't really say much. Phrases like "ADI is a leading direct marketing solutions provider to regional and national firms across a broad spectrum of industries." are extremely promotional, but don't really tell the reader any encyclopedic information. It is also important to provide reliable sources to support the article. What you want to do is provide references to media coverage of the company, and try to limit what is in the article to things that have been covered by that media. Finally, be careful when it comes to conflicts of interest (link to policy) as it can be hard to right a neutral article about something your involved with. If your article is deleted, I would suggest submitting to WP:Articles for Creation next time, so that someone can review your article and point out any problems without it being subject to speedy deletion.

- Let me also mention that it can be tricky to make it clear why the company is important without being overly promotional, but the best way is to keep it to the bare facts, and then show that the company is notable WP:CORP by using reliable sources WP:RS as references for those facts.

Hoaxes
Yes, we were edit-conflicted on that stray HV reference! I enjoyed using Special:Nuke, don't get to do it often enough... </wicked grin> I've asked for a checkuser at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/LadyLashes to flush out any sleepers, but it's not the end of the world if the checkusers don't think it's warranted. The singer's name might be one to check for occasionally, though, to see whether it's being added to other articles. Thanks, BencherliteTalk 00:02, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
Hello!
Would you like the edit summary left by ED Drama removed from your page so non-admins can't see it?--5 albert square (talk) 00:20, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
- I don't really mind, nothing worth RevDeling. Monty845 00:21, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
- OK, let me know if you change your mind :)--5 albert square (talk) 00:23, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
Does the above need to have a seperate AfD request submitted or will it be dealt with once Xbox Wonder has been dealt with.--Skamecrazy123 (talk) 18:01, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
- Assuming you have no objection to my tacking it on to your AfD nomination, I think it can be dealt with as a bundled AfD nomination and deleted without a separate AfD. Monty845 18:02, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:AFD#How_to_list_multiple_related_pages_for_deletion doesn't technically say I'm allowed to add a bundled nomination to a nomination started by someone else, but again, if you have no objection, I don't see why not. Monty845 18:05, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
- So it would be best for me to submit a separate AfD then? For simplicitys sake? --Skamecrazy123 (talk) 18:10, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
- Well, if you would prefer to, go for it, (we can remove my bundle nomination and I'll just comment on the new one) but I don't think it is strictly necessary. Monty845 18:12, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
- I am more than happy to go with the bundle nomination (having re-read what you have put on the AfD) so long as it doesn't get you into trouble. --Skamecrazy123 (talk) 18:15, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
- Worst case, someone objects and we do the separate nomination, but I doubt anyone will. Monty845 18:19, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
- We will do that then :) --Skamecrazy123 (talk) 18:22, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
