A tag has been placed on Project Engine, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.
If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of Project Engine and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Click23 (talk) 20:04, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the Project Engine article, 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."
You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question at the "Village pump".

[edit]You may be able to use text that you have written for other uses, but you would first need to confirm your identity as an authorized spokesperson for Project Engine through our Open-source Ticket Request System, so we could be sure that you aren't some other random person claiming to be the rights-holder for the purposes of violating copyright (a fairly common gambit, unfortunately). In any event, though, it would probably be hard for you to write an article on Project Engine without falling afoul of our policies on conflict of interest, so it might be better for you to leave that task to someone else, and work on an article on a different topic of interest to you. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 22:30, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
