A tag has been placed on AVerMedia, 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 which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which 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  on the top of the page 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. -SpuriousQ (talk) 07:48, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Please note that the username policy also forbids using a name that matches a company, unless you verifiably represent that company. I encourage you to request a username change, or alternatively, since you have few edits, simply create a new account to use instead. Thanks. -SpuriousQ (talk) 07:50, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles that you have created yourself. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please place  on the page (please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag) and make your case on the article's. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. -SpuriousQ (talk) 07:51, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Hey there
I've removed the speedy tag, because I don't like seeing content go and I'm hoping that the article can be made more encyclopedic - as it seems to meet notability guidelines... but for future reference, I would recommend reading WP:MOS and WP:NPOV. Thanks, EMP 07:19, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

AVerMedia
If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors,
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam);
 * and you must always:
 * 1) avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

For more details, please read the Conflict of Interest guideline. --Dirk Beetstra T C 07:57, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
