Speedy deletion nomination of Divineintro


A tag has been placed on Divineintro 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 web content, 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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". 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.

Thanks for best wishes, as it happens I had a few days birding in Singapore in January, en route to Australia. Nice birds.

I deleted your recent article because
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts or show that it meets the notability guidelines. There were in fact no references at all to support the text of the article, or show why it is notable. Incidentally, self-created sites like Linkedin are not acceptable sources
 * A 2011 date suggests that the company is unlikely to be notable yet
 * It was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples:
 * Organisation name repeated as extra header in large letters
 * url for spam page with no other content as opening text. There shouldn't be any external links in the article text, although you can link to the company under an "External" links heading
 * unsourced spammy claims without supporting in-line references eg the service is also becoming popular...
 * There is actually very little about the company, eg numbers of subscribers or employees, turnover. It's all about the product, which is pretty spammy, just using Wikipedia as a promotional platform.


 * Note that I'm not American, so even if I were inclined to do so, I'm unlikely to favour US sites. I'll look at the sited you mentioned tomorrow, but that doeasn't really help you

 * eharmony is a proper, well-referenced article. Christiancafe has much the same problems as yours, but it's been up too long for a speedy. If I remember, I'll tag it for WP:AFD  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  16:22, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
