Speedy deletion nomination of Ceramic knife sharpening


A tag has been placed on Ceramic knife sharpening, 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 encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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 "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, then please contact the deleting administrator. 331dot (talk) 13:39, 17 August 2016 (UTC)

Your new username is not much of an improvement, as it is still promotional in nature. Your username cannot be that of an organization or product, and it must identify you as an individual user. You don't have to use your real name, but your username must indicate that only you are using it. I would suggest you request a new username in the format suggested above, if you want to indicate your association with a business or website. 331dot (talk) 02:23, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
