Welcome!

Hello, Gwearbennen, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Speedy deletion nomination of Michael Collins Agricultural Consultant


A tag has been placed on Michael Collins Agricultural Consultant, 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". 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. VQuakr (talk) 22:12, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

This was not in any way a promotion, this man was the first pig breeder to bring the Duroc breed to the West Country. Surely a notable thing? Gwearbennen Gwearbennen (talk) 22:35, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Greetings! If you disagree with this article's deletion, the first step would be to talk to the deleting administrator at User talk:Athaenara; you can ask for a copy of the article to be moved into your user space (userfied) for development. You could also post a request at WP:REFUND for it to be undeleted or userfied. Please also have a look at WP:Your first article and WP:BIO for clearer idea of the inclusion criteria for biographical articles. Feel free to contact me if you have further questions. Thanks!

Please do not write an article about yourself, as you did at Michael Collins Agricultural Consultant. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged - see our guideline   Writing  autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you  have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according  to our policy for articles about  living  people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. (See Wikipedians with articles.) Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see Why  was my  page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you. &mdash; Finemann (talk) 22:13, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

I AM NOT writing about myself, for heaven's sake I am a woman who has nothing at all to do with the man I have written about. I think you act with far too much haste and are also obviously unsure of your 'role' as moderator on here. Gwearbennen Gwearbennen (talk) 22:33, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
