Speedy deletion nomination of Rochester Drug Cooperative, Inc
A tag has been placed on Rochester Drug Cooperative, Inc, 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 as well as FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Removing Speedy at Rochester Drug Cooperative, Inc
Hi there Hometownpulse! I saw that you added a hangon tag to a page which you created, Rochester Drug Cooperative, Inc. This is good, but in the process you removed the tag requesting deletion under CSD G11. Even though there is a hangon on the page, the deletion template should remain there. But don't worry, this doesn't mean that the page is going to get deleted. Make sure you edit the talk page of the page nominated for deletion, located at Talk:Rochester Drug Cooperative, Inc, administrators will look at your reason why the page should remain before they decide what to do. Thanks - SDPatrolBot (talk) 14:42, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself. Please use the template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion, and make your case on the page's. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 15:02, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

advice
(copied from the article talk page):

This is a non-notable company being blatantly promoted. A quick read demonstrates that this is an advert, which reads more like a corporate history page than an encyclopedia article. Wikipedia is not the place for this page. Nezzadar (talk) 14:50, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

How is this any different that these pages??

 * As reviewing administrator, I deleted the article. Regardless of anhy possible notability of the company, the article was hopelessly promotional,--and also appears to have been copied from some previously published item. The tone is totally wrong, being written in the first person. Wikipedia does not talk about "our" accomplishments.

If the company is notable, you can write a proper article. You will need to show notability with references providing substantial coverage from 3rd party independent published reliable sources, print or online, but not blogs or press releases, or material derived from press releases  You also need to write like an encyclopedia article, not a press release--don't praise yourself, say what you do. And, do not copy from a web site -- first it's a copyright violation, but, even if you give us permission according to WP:DCM, the tone with not be encyclopedic and the material will not be suitable. For further information see our FAQ about business, organisations, and articles like this.

The Kinray article did have some problems, but i removed the one sentence worth of promotion I saw--the rest seems factual. As for Drug Mart, I removed some similar & notified the ed. about notability problems.  DGG ( talk ) 21:11, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
