Deletion of CarTrawler
The presence of other articles on Wikipedia that are similar does not mean that another article of the same type should also exist. Wikipedia is always in an imperfect state. If you are affiliated with CarTrawler, it is not a good idea for you yourself to write the article. If CarTrawler is indeed notable, somebody else not affiliated with the company will eventually get around to it. You may wish to see Notability (companies and corporations).

 * Newness is not a worry. Please don't presume that I find any fault with you because you're new. We were all new at one time or another.
 * Wikipedia is an imperfect beast. Due to its nature, there will always be what appear to be mixed standards. Even the standards themselves are in flux often enough that it leaves a picture that can seem to be difficult to follow. We also have time contributed to the project in volunteer fashion. It is frequently the case (and really the default case) that there is no concerted effort to tackle task X. A given article might be deleted for good reason, while articles on very similar subjects exist with no worries.
 * Suggestion; recreate the article in your userspace. I recommend User:Dolce12/CarTrawler. Develop the article into a more complete form. You may wish to read Guide_to_writing_better_articles and Guide to layout in support of this. Perhaps easier is to largely follow the lead provided by our Featured articles. For example, compare Auto Europe to Mass Rapid Transit (Singapore). The latter is quite obviously a more complete article. It is not uncommon for people to see an business article that is poorly formed and immediately conclude that it is spam. Often enough, it is. Writing a great article prevents that sort of knee-jerk reaction. So, create the subpage as I recommended above. While it exists in your userspace, nobody will delete it. Work on fleshing the article out. When you're ready to "go live" we can move the article to CarTrawler. For example, I began work User:Durin/Battle of Carentan some time ago. It'll take a lot of effort to pull it together. I haven't touched it in a while, but nobody will delete it while I work on it. As it turned out, someone created the article anyways while I was working on it. That happens sometimes. If you have questions about any of this, I'd be happy to help. --Durin 14:52, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Argus car hire 232x80 white2.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:Argus car hire 232x80 white2.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.
