Speedy deletion nomination of Sport of Selling


A tag has been placed on Sport of Selling, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. bonadea contributions talk 18:54, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

 * I agree that now you have removed the promotional material this is no longer speedy-deletable, but I am afraid it still does not meet Wikipedia's requirements - see WP:Notability (books) - so I have proposed it for deletion, formal notice below. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 21:35, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Sport of Selling


The article Sport of Selling has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * there is no indication that this newly-publised book meets the notability standard of WP:Notability (books).

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

The other problem
{after the spam removal) is that the book is not with a mainline publisher. BQB might operate differently to Lulu and Authorhouse, but they are still a cash up front publisher and this casts doubts on the notability of what is published through them. Coupled with being a first time author who has no notability shown, this doesn't give much hope. Sorry. Peridon (talk) 21:37, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
