Welcome!

Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

Speedy deletion of CINEC Maritime Campus
A tag has been placed on CINEC Maritime Campus, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page 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 the guidelines on spam as well as FAQ/Business 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 that has been nominated for deletion (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 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Deleted
I have deleted the article CINEC Maritime Campus because (as described above) it is just a promotional page and Wikipedia is not for advertising, and because it was copied and pasted directly from here without attribution, and thus is a violation of that site's copyright. It may be possible to write an real article about this, since schools generally meet Wikipedia's notability guideline, but you would have to write it on your own (not copying material from other websites) and write it as a neutral encyclopedia article. I recommend that you look at similar articles in Category:Schools in Sri Lanka to get an idea what a Wikipedia article should be like. Also, if you have not done so yet, take the brief Wikipedia Tutorial to learn more about editing. Best, r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 12:41, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
