Speedy deletion of Shopwindow
A tag has been placed on Shopwindow 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 or corporation, but it 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

 * Hi there, you need to have a look here to see what you need to establish for a website to be deemed notable. Only this will prevent it from being tagged again for deletion. If you like, you can draft an article at a page like User:Amarath/Shopwindow which will appear in your own userspace and not in the main encyclopaedia. Then you can slowly build and refine the article and get feedback from others. Just reply here below my comment if you would like any help with this.

Hi Kim thank you for that. Im not sure how to do this but yes I do believe this is an important page as ShopWindow has achieved an industry first in the affiliate marketing sector, that is by getting a major newspaper to utilise a CPA model platform. This has never been done before and has been significantly commented on by the press.

Couple more refences to back this up:

http://www.nma.co.uk/Articles/36294/2007%20Review.html?liArticleID=36294 - review of last years major occurances - including the News International Launch.

http://www.here.org.uk/2007/10/the-sun-launch-online-shopping-portal-based-on-affiliate-windows-shopwindow-technology.html - a blog from a leading affiliate marketer.

Does this help?

Thanks

 * I'm afraid neither of these are going to hold up. One leads to a subscription-only page, which is not of any use to casual browers, and the other is to a personal blog. Such sources are not much use - see the blue link for what is. Please do look at this guideline which will specify what kind of independent sources you need to find to establish the notability of this site. I'll be happy to comment on any other sources you find, and help you to cite them in the article. Kim Dent-Brown   (Talk)  22:08, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
