This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly defined criteria, then it may 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, person, or point of view 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/Organizations for more information.
 * It appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, and/or activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals. Please note that Wikipedia is not a free Web hosting service. (See section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion.)

Contested deletion
This page should not be speedily deleted because (your reason here) --Flyingwordsproject (talk) 20:21, 13 June 2024 (UTC) Flying Words Project is an American Sign Language (ASL) performance poetry duo. We have been performing since 1984. Many people look for our videos and for information about us. We have seen that musicians have posts of their bands and music. We are simply trying to do the same thing with our poetry so people can learn about us and ASL poetry. This is the first time we have tried to appear on Wiki. We don't understand why you want to delete. Can you please explain it so we can fix it?


 * Hi there,

 * Also, you may be confused about your image deletion. You have uploaded the work to Wikimedia Commons, which can only hold pictures that do not have copyrighted content (in other words, Wikimedia Commons only hols hosts free works). The picture seemed to be copied from Flying Words Projects' official website.  My real namm  (💬pros · ✏️cons) 20:24, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

We have received a complaint from you stating that our picture is not copywrited. We performed at the 36th Poetry International festival in 2006 and they gave us the picture to use as we see fit. We have been using it ever since. Do we need to take it down?
