Welcome!
Hello, Chaz4830, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

If you are editing as part of a school or university assignment...
[edit]...please look at these links:
and ask your instructor to look at them, and also at
Writing a Wikipedia article differs in some important respects from writing a normal student paper. One of Wikipedia's key content policies is that we do not publish original work - everything in a Wikipedia article needs to be verifiable from a reliable published source. Please read the policy WP:No original research carefully, in particular the section headed "Synthesis of published material that advances a position".
Also, no Wikipedia article is owned by its author - see WP:OWN - every article may be edited by anyone. You may prefer to create your article in a user sub-page (see WP:UP#Creating user subpages), and move it into the main encyclopedia when it is ready. But all articles must comply with Wikipedia's policies - in particular, subjects must be interesting and important enough to have an encyclopedia article - see the guideline Notability.
The links in the Welcome paragraph above will tell you more about contributing, and you can always ask advice at the WP:Help desk or by leaving a message on my talk page. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 13:56, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
- "Ventmob" has been deleted because it was clear that its subject was not notable in Wikipedia's sense. You may recreate it if you think that you can demonstrate notability, which would require showing that it has "received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject."

Speedy deletion nomination of Ventmob
[edit]A tag has been placed on Ventmob requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

conflict of interest
[edit]If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
- editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
- participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
- linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Thank you. 98.248.33.198 (talk) 23:22, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
Ventmob
[edit]Hello Chaz. As you requested, I restored the article. However, since the subject isn't "notable" (i.e., it doesn't satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for an encyclopedia article), I've moved it to User:Chaz4830/Ventmob.
When you're finished with the article and want to have it deleted, just type {{db-u1}} at the top of the article. Good luck with your project. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 21:01, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
