  • You didn't even give me a chance to finish writing it! I added SEVERAL unbiased reviews of the company and its launch. Why wouldn't you give me a chance to finish it, or even edit what was already there before you deleted it. Bad form. Chicagogirl09 (talk) 22:38, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • It was a fleshed out article, so I assumed it was already finished (although generally newly created articles should avoid any of the speedy deletion criteria, which doesn't require much by default). The articles were overall promotional, so I'm not sure where the unbiased reviews were (in external links?); they should meet WP:NPOV, which mostly consists of the removal of positive adjectives. Please feel free to recreate them in a subpage of your userspace (User:Chicagogirl09/Article etc.) where you can edit them undisturbed (if you'd like I can recover the articles and move them here) until they're ready to go back to the main article space. -- Mentifisto 18:08, 22 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes thank you, I'd be grateful if you could move them into my user space so I can fix them. I'm sorry I was a little short with you, I was just upest about the very small amount of time between when I published and when you deleted. I can see where you're coming from. The site reviews that I was referring to were external links. Should they be incorporated more within the article? Another problem I was running into was the lack of negative reviews of the site. Not all of the reviews were completely positive, but none of the reviews had hardly any negative things to say. However, I will try to conduct a more in depth study of the topic and see if anything else comes up. Thanks for your understanding! Chicagogirl09 (talk) 14:16, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
