Speedy deletion nomination of Lilac magazine


A tag has been placed on Lilac magazine, 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 the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent 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. AllyD (talk) 19:09, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

Lilac Magazine
There were several problems with your article: JohnCD (talk) 19:40, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Part of it was a copy of http://pt-br.facebook.com/pages/Lilac-Magazine/151946891544511?sk=info. Wikipedia cannot accept copies of published material unless a formal copyright release has been made as described in Donating copyrighted materials. See Copy-paste. Assertion of permission to use material is not enough.
 * It is not often worth making a copyright release, because material written for places like Facebook usually has a promotional tone unsuitable for an encyclopedia article. That was so in this case, the text ("Our mission... Our target audience... The purpose of our magazine... ") was clearly an announcement by the magazine, not an article about it. See User:JohnCD/Not a noticeboard.
 * Any subject for a Wikipedia article needs to have WP:Notability, which is not a matter of opinion but has to be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." The test is, have people independent of the subject thought it significant enough to write substantial comment about? If the magazine is new, that may not be possible, but in that case it is too soon for an article.
 * If you are connected with the magazine, you should read the guideline on Conflict of interest.
