Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but all Wikipedia articles must meet our criteria for inclusion (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Since it does not seem that Pullman Guangzhou Baiyun Airport meets these criteria, an editor has started a discussion about whether this article should be kept or deleted.

Your opinion on whether this article meets the inclusion criteria is welcome. Please contribute to the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pullman Guangzhou Baiyun Airport. Don't forget to add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of each of your comments to sign them.

Discussions such as these usually last seven days. In the meantime, you are free to edit the content of the article. Please do not remove the "articles for deletion" template (the box at the top). When the discussion has concluded, a neutral third party will consider all comments and decide whether or not to delete the article. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 02:40, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I see that you have posted a message on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pullman Guangzhou Baiyun Airport after the discussion was closed. The main point here is that Wikipedia cannot host text to which someone holds the copyright unless the copyright holder releases the content under a compatible license. Editors cannot simply copy and paste material found elsewhere to create an article; they have to write the article in their own words. Below is our standard message with regard to such article creations, the links in which will take you to pages that you should probably read. (The article also was primarily promotional—because its source was—and would have probably been deleted on that basis even if it weren't a copyright violation.)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but 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.

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 include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later, and under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribute Share-Alike."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question at the "Help Desk". You can also leave a message on my talk page.
