Speedy deletion nomination of 16 million colours


A tag has been placed on 16 million colours requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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," which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). 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. Reaper Eternal (talk) 12:53, 20 June 2011 (UTC)

Deletion of 16 Million Colours
Hi there, thanks for your efforts to expand Wikipedia!

I've deleted your page due to its non-adherence to Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy under the G11 speedy deletion process. Essentially, what this means is that articles that serve solely to promote a product are forbidden.

The page was also unqualified in terms of Notability, and so would have been deleted under A7 speedy deletion criteria. If, in the future, 16 million colours becomes a notable company, and the article is written neutrally, we'll see about making another article for it.

If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know on my talk page.

Cheers, m.o.p  13:25, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
