Speedy deletion nomination of Morphe Cosmetics
[edit]
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Morphe Cosmetics 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 a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. ZLEA T\C 23:51, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Morphe Cosmetics
[edit]Hello Vertyped,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Morphe Cosmetics for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Deletion of Morphe Cosmetics
[edit]Hello Vertyped,
I'm sorry to see your work on Morphe lost. However, you should be aware of article quality standards. What's important to Wikipedia is notability. We operate off of what we call the GNG -- the general notability guideline. This stipulates, essentially, that articles should be covered in an in-depth manner by reliable sources that are independent of the subject. As the page mostly just talked about the company's actions and products in a promotional manner, and used sources that were either published by the company itself or from non-reliable sources (Medium being a blogging website that anyone can write on), the company at this point was just not suitable for an article. Hope this helps. Etzedek24 (I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record) 22:22, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
Hey, Vertyped! I've restored and rewritten this article, as it's definitely now notable. I think it likely was back when you created the first version, too, but without any good sources, other editors couldn't see that. —valereee (talk) 16:22, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
