Speedy deletion nomination of SAE Chicago Section'


A tag has been placed on SAE Chicago Section', requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous advertising that 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 general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising,. Clicking that button 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 article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Valenciano (talk) 17:00, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

SAE Chicago Section'
I placed the following message on Talk:SAE Chicago Section' and am copying it here in case you don't see the message before the page is deleted:
 * An article already exists on SAE International. Wikipedia has a set of notability criteria for inclusion. In general, local chapters of large organizations such as this do not warrant their own separate article. However, if you can provide sources that demonstrate that this chapter of SAE has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable sources, it might merit its own article.
 * All that being said, Wikipedia is an enyclopedia; it is not a vehicle for promotion. Even if this chapter does meet the notability criteria, the article as it stands right now is unacceptable, because all it does is promote or "get the word out". Let me know if you have any further questions. &mdash; KuyaBriBri Talk 17:30, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
