Speedy deletion nomination of Pickups N Panels
A tag has been placed on Pickups N Panels 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 a company or corporation, 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

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.

Pickups N Panels
Hi Dlbraly. Unfortunately I've just deleted your article. If this is your company or a company you work for or are otherwise associated with, please firstly take a look at the FAQ for businesses - WP:BFAQ and the conflict of interest guideline - WP:COI. Wikipedia strongly discourages people from writing about their own businesses and other subjects close to them because we are trying to write a neutral point-of-view encyclopedia and it is very difficult to write neutrally about subjects one feels strongly about. Please also take a look at the notabilty guideline and the notability quidelines for companies as we only host articles about subjects that meet a certain level of notability. Also note that we only report what has already been published in verifiable "reliable sources" - books, journals, newspapers, etc - and we don't engage in any original research or original writing. Thus, for your article to survive here you will need to explain in the article how and why this group is notable and you will need to be able to cite reliable, published sources which are independent from the subject. If you feel you can do this, I suggest you work on the article in your userspace where you draft it without being bothered by other users tagging your page for deletion. Once you have finished the page you can post it back in the main article space, or ask someone to help you if you aren't sure how to do so. But please first do take a look through the pages I've linked in this message, particularly in regard to notability and sourcing because these rules are considered cornerstone and they are enforced fairly tightly so if the subject really doesn't pass the policies and guidelines the article just won't survive here. If you wish to persevere with drafting an article, you can do so on this page - User talk:Dlbraly/Draft. Regards, Sarah 15:46, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
