Hari Mari

If you don't think that page was promotional then I think you are a bit too close to the subject to be writing about it. Take the first sentence: Hari Mari is the one and only Texas based flip flop company that specializes in bringing comfort and color to the premium flip flop market. That's the kind of language I would expect to find in a sales brochure. Wikipedia is a neutral encyclopedia and is not a platform for promotion. If you have some connection to this company (as the person who wrote the article obviously did) then I suggest you review our guidelines on conflict of interest.

There isn't anything stopping you from writing another article about the company as long as it isn't promotional and doesn't qualify for deletion for any other reason. You might want to try the articles for creation process to get feedback on whether your article is suitable. You may also want to review the notability guidelines for organisations, if the company doesn't meet those then any article is likely to be deleted at some point.

Speedy deletion nomination of Hari Mari

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 Hari Mari, 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, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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 "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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
