Speedy deletion of Usedeverywhere
A tag has been placed on Usedeverywhere, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant 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 our the guidelines on spam as well as the Business' FAQ for more information.

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 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.

Speedy deletion for UsedEverywhere
I was wondering why you deleted the UsedEverywhere page? Please forgive me if I'm not following standard content protocol. I'm still learning... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Canucks1000 (talk • contribs) 17:46, 4 April 2008 (UTC)


 * It looks like i tagged it for G11, Advertising, which means that the page in the one or other way seemed to serve no goal except the promotion of the product or company described on it. One of the core rules within wikipedia are that articles should not be advertising websites, products articles and the like, and should be written in a Neutral point of view. Most times articlesare tagged for G11 advertising if they either contain a whole lot of words that are not NPOV (Great article, Best in its market)), because the page makes unsourced (Biggest company in the world, Makt leader) or if it contains a whole lot of links to external sites.


 * A second possible issue you i want to warn you for in advance is A7 Notability, which states that an article should be Notable enough before it can stay on wikipedia. I estimate that abut 60-70% of all the pages get deleted are either of those reasons, so keep an eye on them when editing.


 * I hope that answers the question and if it didn't, just wander back in on my user page :)

Used Everywhere
Please don't recreate this page unless the article covers the two main issues:
 * 1) It's not used for promotion (that is, that the article is written not to promote the subject)
 * 2) The article's notability is asserted. A list of products (in this case, numerous websites with the "used" prefix) does not make a company notable.

Please note that you will be reported to admin should this continue - you've noticed the templates on your talk page, therefore I assume you know why the articles are being deleted.

Re: message on my talk page
After following the links you posted (I found a Google cache of the article here), it seems that the only relevant article that may be of worth adding to WP would be UsedCanada - the two links only really focus on this, and as notability is not inherited, the UsedEverywhere (or UsedAnywhere, for that matter) is not inherently notable. If the above article does pass WP:WEB, it would be very trivial (unless more sources are added). However, you may wish to look into a third opinion - although I've seen that you've had similar discussions with other editors.

One thing to remember is that Wikipedia does not seek to categorise everything, and even a large website with an established customer base does not automatically qualify for inclusion.

Thanks

 * On re-reading the cached article, I've noticed that one link was from the business's partner - this is not encouraged as will (in most cases) put a bias on the source. Also, the second link appears to be from a blog of some sort. Although I don't know the background behind this blog in particular, blogs are generally discouraged as an academic reference.  I suggest you read WP:CITE for guidelines on citing sources.  Booglamay (talk) 19:49, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
