Speedy deletion nomination of Grandbridge Real Estate Capital


A tag has been placed on Grandbridge Real Estate Capital 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 an organization or company, but it does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, 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 from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Using Wikipedia for promotion
I understand there have been several accounts in the past who have been acting as representatives of BB&T (See User:BBTMarketing and User:Bbtcorpcom for examples).

This needs to be stated clearly, and unequivocally. Wikipedia is NOT a means to promote your company. See WP:NOTPROMOTION. If you went to a dictionary, you would not expect to see entries in there written by companies talking about themselves. Neither would you expect to see that in an encyclopedia. We are an encyclopedia. Literally thousands of companies have tried and failed to promote themselves on this project. It is not tolerated.

If a company is truly notable, there will be reliable secondary sources attesting to its notability. While Wikipedia has more than 5 million articles, we have not yet gotten around to writing about every company that is notable. We will. We do not need representatives from companies to do this for us. In fact, this is a serious violation of our terms of use if such work is not disclosed to us.

I strongly encourage you to reconsider your actions in this light, and to encourage your colleagues not to engage in this sort of behavior. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 20:32, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

June 2016
Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy or request a change of username. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page. Thank you. WaggersTALK  14:33, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
