User:Phantomsteve/AfD advice
- I would suggest that you add your comments at the AfD to explain why you feel that the article should be kept. It is not a vote, but a consensus, which determines the outcome. You might want to read the following policies, guidelines and essays which might help you:
- General notability guidelines (why a subject should have an article on Wikipedia)
- Independent sources
- Identifying reliable sources
- Conflict of interest guidelines - so you know exactly what Wikipedia expects of its editors who are closely connected to the subject, as you are
- Deletion policy
- How to discuss an AfD
- Guide to deletion: General advice (you might want to read the rest of the Guide, as it explains the full process)
- Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions (an essay, but with useful advice)
- If you have any other questions, please feel to contact me. Regards,
