Hi. I have reverted all your links that your recently made for three reasons, the first is that Wikipedia is not a collection of links according to policy and second, a lot of the information contained on the institute website is not correct. Thirdly, it appears that it is self promotion since you only add the links to the SWF institute on this account and not edit or helpful in any other way. --PatrickFlaherty (talk) 10:24, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'd be much obliged if you could respond to this message. It seems a significant majority of your recent edits have been inserting links to this website; taking that in tandem with your lack of responsiveness, it appears you may have a conflict of interest. At any rate, it would be wonderful if this issue could be discussed. Please respond. – Luna Santin (talk) 01:15, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have contributed a lot of valid facts and citations from the Institute to the wikipedia community. PatrickFlaherty represents Amadan International, another research institution on sovereign wealth funds and competitor to the Institute, and is deleting relevant and critical information and important links on sovereign wealth funds to the detriment of the credibility they deserve for their contributions. The incentives behind his actions may be a conflict of interest. He subjectively claims that 'a lot of information from the Institute's website is not correct'; however, this is a vague and unexplored statement. His reasonings behind reversing my links and contributions to wikipedia are an excuse to hide his business objectives. MikeMaadogg (talk)

A tag has been placed on Sovereign Wealth Fund Institute requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on 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.
I strongly advise you to read WP:COI, and our our Business FAQ (which also applies to non-profit organisations) before continuing editing. Perhaps this group is notable, but if so, prove it properly according to our standards. After that, consdier wher links will be apprpriate on a very selective basis.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.
