Hi, I'm sorry if I have given the impression that this was commercial in any way. It was definitely not my intent. I'm just passionnated about the topic, and thought it deserve a wikipedia page. I'm new to see, and may have done too many copy pastes to create the page. I have now completely re-written it so that it's a neutral page, with more facts, and open for more information / commentary from anyone on here. I hope that you can remove the deletion, and get the page up there. I think it is now a totally legitimate topic and fair/neutral presentation. Many thanks.

Please do not add commercial material to Wikipedia. While objective prose about products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for advertising or promotion. —  iride scent   (talk to me!)  20:31, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:FeelDrink.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:FeelDrink.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Feeldrinks
Welcome to Wikipedia, and sorry if it looks like we're trying to get your article deleted. The only way this will be kept is if you can provide multiple, independent, non-trivial sources for independent coverage of the company. Wikipedia's a tertiary source, so it only covers material already covered elsewhere. A Google search on the name isn't promising as it seems to have no coverage at all online; however, you may know of sources for the information. —  iride scent   (talk to me!)  21:30, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your quick follow-up
Hi, waow, that was a super fast response, thanks! It's a new drink on a small market like belgium, which is probably the reason why you could find very little information in Google. The best I can give you is their website which is in 3 languages, and shows they are serious about it, and that all the facts I took from there are backed up. www.feeldrinks.com

I don't know if you have seen, but as soon as I saw the deletion, I have completely re-written it to give a totally neutral and much more factual tone to it. My personal interest in it comes from the fact that I have studies several drink business cases in marketing, and that I'm from Belgium.

Please feel free as well to write a note to the email on their website. I'm comfortable that they will back it up and happy to answer any question. Eg: they authorized me for example to use the logo for this wiki page. (but even there, I'm not sure if I did it properly - again sorry, I'm new here).

I would also be happy to do a picture of their drink in stores next time I'm in Belgium and send it over to you if it can help in anyway confirm that all this is totally correct.

Thanks a lot.


 * The problem is the independent part of reliable source - we can use material from the company to say what it is, but not to show why it's notable. If you can find mentions of the drinks in the French/Flemish press, that should be fine. —  iride scent   (talk to me!)  22:09, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:FeelDrink.JPG)
Thanks for uploading Image:FeelDrink.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 19:49, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
