Speedy deletion nomination of The Party People


A tag has been placed on The Party People, 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 unambiguous 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 and FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so 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 the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. PTJoshua (talk) 01:31, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of The Party People


A tag has been placed on The Party People 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 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.

Proposed deletion of The Party People


The article The Party People has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Unreferenced article about a party store in Australia. No evidence that this store is notable. Article is promotional.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

The Party People
Eddy, please stop blanking out the maintenance tags on the above article. If you continue blanking them without addressing the issues with this article, we will have to revoke your ability to edit the article. I understand that you started this article, however, it does not belong to you, and it must conform with our policies.

In addition, please review the FAQ for people attempting to edit about subjects relating to their employment and business interests, as well as the Conflict of Interest guideline. Wikipedia strongly discourages people from editing articles that relate to their employment and/or business interests, as well as other subjects with which they have a close association. Please also be aware that all the material in the article must be able to be sourced to reliable verifiable published secondary sources. The business's website, press releases, promotional material, etc is not sufficient. Any material which cannot be verified in this way, or which relies on personal knowledge, needs to be removed. If sufficient sources which comply with our verifiability policy and the reliable sources guideline cannot be produced, then the article will need to be reviewed for deletion. Appropriate sources include newspaper articles, books, etc. If the article is fully sourced to appropriate sources and brought in line with our policies and guidelines, we will then, and only then, be able to remove the tags. Thanks. Sarah 11:14, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Atttention: Wikipedia Editors
I recently tried to reference The Party People local council and the reference was removed. The reference to the council as a government body will confirm the building size and with research I am able to confirm that the store is the largest in Australia by viewing other council websites for other party stores. Could an editor please provide me with some assistance on how I am able to reference such research if the reference is being removed?

 * Can you please clarify what you mean by a "local council" reference? I had a quick look through the history of the page but could not figure out what you are referring to. The primary issue is that you have been trying to exert ownership over the article by repeatedly removing appropriate maintenance tags on an article which does not conform with Wikipedia policy. The reason you are running into trouble here is not for sourcing an article but for making pretty blatant COI edits and attempting to control the article. If you post here on this page the local council reference you are referring to, I will have a look at it for you. If it conforms with our verifiability and reliable sources rules, I will help you add it to the article myself. Sarah 15:13, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
