The article Emitations.com has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki 12:38, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you're going to use Wikipedia articles as references for job interviews (which is pretty dodgy, given that anyone can edit them at any time), you should make sure your articles meet Wikipedia's fundamental guidelines of notability and verifiability. Yours didn't. Yours was an article on a nonnotable business which cited no independent sources. If we were to assume that we shouldn't delete any articles, even though they fail our guidelines and meet the standards for speedy deletion, because their author might be using them to impress a potential boss, we wouldn't have guidelines anymore and this would be MySpace.

If you wanted the text of the deleted article copied to your userspace, all you had to do was ask. No need to be snippy about it. Anyway, I've posted it at User:EricMichaelsPhd/Emitations.com. NawlinWiki 02:13, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
