Speedy deletion nomination of The Skills Center


A tag has been placed on The Skills Center requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent 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.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen (ComRelSPS) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this :
 * 1) It is possible that you have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization or adding links to its website.
 * 2) Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guidelines concerning editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. The article in question is Spokane Public Schools. Thank you. ''It's clear that you are working on behalf of the Spokane Public School system's Community Relations Department, which is not allowed according to Wikipedia policy.

Spokane Public Schools
I wanted to touch bases with you on the above referenced article. I have cleaned up the article in accordance with the Manual of Style, primarily focusing on formatting and removing embedded links. You can find more information about editing and enhancing articles about schools and school districts here. I would also recommend taking a look at the document from the district's website that presents the history and background of each school in the district over the past 100 years, and then use this material to enhance school articles. While we can't use the copyrighted information verbatim (content must be presented in your own words), the school district has the option to donate materials, which would greatly benefit both the district and Wikipedia. If you have questions about donating materials to Wikipedia, have questions, or need help in any capacity, please feel free to contact me anytime.

Your contributed article, NEWTECH Skills Center


Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, NEWTECH Skills Center. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Spokane Skills Center. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Spokane Skills Center - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent 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. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Best regards,  Cindy  ( talk to me ) 09:11, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I have taken pity on you and moved it to User:ComRelSPS/sandbox. When it is actually an article, move it to Newtech Skills Center (no shouting) and provide a redirect at Spokane Skills Center. &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:26, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
