A tag has been placed on Nationalcycles.co.uk, 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 page 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. ArglebargleIV 21:48, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to ignore our policies by introducing inappropriate pages, such as Nationalcycles, to Wikipedia, you will be blocked. Waggers 13:01, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, as you did to Bicycle, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing anyone from linking to them from any site that uses the MediaWiki spam blacklist, which includes all of Wikimedia and Wikipedia.

AfD nomination of Nationalcycles
I've nominated Nationalcycles, an article you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that Nationalcycles satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion; I have explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Articles for deletion/Nationalcycles and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ). You are free to edit the content of Nationalcycles during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Stephenb (Talk) 20:15, 5 July 2007 (UTC) Appologies, my dad who runs nationalcycles has asked me to add the background of his store to Wikipedia. I'm so sorry.
