Speedy deletion nomination of Workhouse Publicity
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Workhouse Publicity, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous 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 the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. WuhWuzDat 18:21, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself. Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion, and make your case on the page's talk page. Thank you. WuhWuzDat 18:26, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
A comment you made suggested that this might be a shared account. If it is, I would like to draw your attention to the policy about shared accounts, which says "User accounts can only represent individuals. Sharing an account – or the password to an account – with others is not permitted, and doing so will result in the account being blocked." Please ensure that only one person is using this account. Thanks very much for your contributions! ErikHaugen (talk | contribs) 19:15, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
Please stop removing speedy deletion notices from pages that you have created yourself, as you did with Workhouse Publicity. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. ErikHaugen (talk | contribs) 19:18, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
This is your last warning; the next time you remove a speedy deletion notice from a page you have created yourself, as you did at Workhouse Publicity, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. ErikHaugen (talk | contribs) 19:23, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
Why deleted
[edit]Peter I deleted the Workhouse Publicity article. I understand that it can take some time for someone new to Wikipedia to learn how to use the functionality. However, you explicitly noted that you looked at 5WPR. You show no understanding of how section headings work, nor any idea regarding references. Again, when some new editor plunges ahead and misses those things, we try to politely point them out. However, you say you looked at others for models, but there's little evidence. The Workhouse Publicity is not close to acceptable. (As an aside, I'd say that 5WPR is skirting on the edges, and could use some improvement, but that article is in far better shape.)
If you would like to work from a model, you would be better off perusing Featured articles or Good articles for an article in the same industry.--SPhilbrickT 19:34, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
- Added point - consider starting a draft article in user space, which is easy to do using the Article Wizard. That will allow you to work on a draft with less concern for the deletionists, and post to Requests for feedback when you think it is ready.--SPhilbrickT 19:46, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Workhouse Publicity, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- It appears to be a clear copyright infringement. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. However, even if you use one of these processes to release copyrighted material to Wikipedia, it still needs to comply with the other policies and guidelines to be eligible for inclusion. If you would like any assistance with this, you can ask a question at the help desk.
- It is a rejected submission at Wikipedia:Articles for creation, and it has not been edited in over a year. (See section G13 of the criteria for speedy deletion.)
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. j⚛e deckertalk 23:58, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
