Speedy deletion nomination of Ikano Retail Centres


A tag has been placed on Ikano Retail Centres, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It 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 encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.
 * It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, 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. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, 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 from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. RA talkcontribs 16:53, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

Fire80, I have deleted the article. It did not indicate why the company is notable; it was written in very bad English, so that even comparing the Swedish Wikipedia article and looking at the company website, I could not understand what you meant, for example, by "passionate"; and it was clearly intended mainly as advertising. I suggest you try again through Articles for creation, which is a process that allows you to draft the article and receive feedback on how to improve it so that it can be included in the English-language Wikipedia. However, if you do so, the article will need to be written in clear English and to include several references to independent news or magazine articles or other coverage (TV news segments, coverage in books) about the company, or evidence of some other reason why it is notable, such as its having won a significant award. Here are our notability standards for companies. If you believe Ikano Retail meets this standard, please collect references and try Articles for Creation.
