Speedy deletion nomination of Brandship


A tag has been placed on Brandship 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, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Status and Advice

 * As reviewing administrator, I deleted the article. On the now deleted talk p. you said : "This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because articles about comparable companies (in terms of size, relevance and industry) are available via Wikipedia (amongst others The_Naming_Group) and not nominated for deletion"

You are correct that there are several hundred thousand of articles in WP accepted in earlier years when the standards were lower that we need to either upgrade or remove. The least we can do is not add to them. The particular article you mentioned has been nominated for deletion.

It is possible that you have a Conflict of interest with respect to the article. If you do, you should be aware that the Wikipedia community strongly discourages articles written by individuals close to a subject because of the difficulty in writing objectively about your organization, yourself, your family, or your work, in line with Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline. The acceptable way to proceed is to declare on your user page that you have a conflict of interest with the subject, and then use  WP:Articles for Creation. There you can have your text evaluated and worked on by other editors to ensure it meets Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for inclusion. I also call your attention to our Terms of Use, particularly with respect to paid contributions without disclosure

If you do try to write the page, please note that you must show the notability of the company by substantial published articles about it in reliable sources that are not press releases or based on press releases, and you must describe the company, not say how good it is, nor give information primarily of use to  prospective customers. If you do not have adequate sources for the sort of article that one might expect to find in an encyclopedia, please do not try, as it will surely not be accepted.
