Speedy deletion nomination of Portmay press


A tag has been placed on Portmay press 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 an organization or company, but 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. 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 "Click here to 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, you can place a request here. Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 16:45, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

Size doesn't matter, but notability does
It's not because the company has only published one book so far. It's more that it doesn't seem to pass WP:CORP. Some small things do pass, and some big ones don't (including a company whose products are on millions of people's tables daily - they make own brand goods for chain stores, and outside their business connections and the Infernal Revenue, no-one's heard of them...). Most small things don't, but in time a publisher should get there. (A company writing only software for buggy whip makers isn't likely to... You never know, though.) As for now, with only 38 ghits (Google hits), and none of them looking like what we consider reliable independent sources WP:RS, it's too soon. As a writer, I wish both the company and its author good luck. I hope we'll have an article again before too long. Peridon (talk) 17:52, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
