A tag has been placed on The Integer Group, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant 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 general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. gb (t, c) 21:20, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Can you tell me why it's okay for TBWA and Omnicom (our sister agencies) to have articles up but not Integer? It was not an advertisement. Friessj (talk) 23:40, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

I've added references that now hopefully qualify the article as notable. Friessj (talk) 22:46, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Got your message
Hi there, Friessj. Got your message. In order to write a good article that will stay in Wikipedia, you need to read some of our relevant policies. First, go read Your first article. Then, read our guidelines on notability, and especially about writing with a neutral point of view and writing with reliable sources. Also, I have a hunch that you are personally involved in this company, so I encourage you if that's the case, to read our conflict of interest guideline. After reading these guidelines, if you still feel that Integer group would be an appropriate article, please revisit my talkpage and tell me why. Include sources that talk about your subject, not just written by your subject. Wikipedia is neutral and only includes articles about notable, verificable subjects.
