User:Phantomsteve/AfD advice


 * I would suggest that you add your comments at the AfD to explain why you feel that the article should be kept. It is not a vote, but a consensus, which determines the outcome. You might want to read the following policies, guidelines and essays which might help you:
 * General notability guidelines (why a subject should have an article on Wikipedia)
 * Independent sources
 * Identifying reliable sources
 * Conflict of interest guidelines - so you know exactly what Wikipedia expects of its editors who are closely connected to the subject, as you are
 * Deletion policy
 * How to discuss an AfD
 * Guide to deletion: General advice (you might want to read the rest of the Guide, as it explains the full process)
 * Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions (an essay, but with useful advice)
