Speedy deletion nomination of Civtech


A tag has been placed on Civtech requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally, and it does not 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.

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 removed 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.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Civtech, a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Contest this speedy deletion which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you.

Hi WikiDan61 thanks very much for message and guidance. I was on a bus and quickly added my first page whilst it occurred to me to put something up in a public place with a concept we've developed at the Scottish Government. I have lots more content to add but wanted to get something up with a view to adding more content in the next few weeks. What would you suggest? Can I keep that page in all its 2-sentence glory (having now removed my name)? Or will it be deleted? Many thanks and hopefully i've written this in the correct place for you to read it!

 * Since the concept is newly coined, you'll probably have to wait and see if it gains enough of a foothold to be considered notable. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 21:50, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
