Luminary: Rise of the Goonzu
A tag has been placed on Luminary: Rise of the Goonzu, 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 Luminary: Rise of the Goonzu 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. Calton | Talk 04:35, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Deletion clarification
To clarify, my deletion reason, if you check the deletion log, was that the article did not make any assertion that the game is notable. This may be demonstrated by citing multiple sources which are reliable and independent of the subject, and which have written about it. If little or no such sourcing exists, the subject is not an appropriate one for an article at this time. This aside, the tone of the article and download link in its body also made it advertising, so it could have just as easily been deleted under that. You need only be boosting or promoting something to write an ad (fans of a subject often do without any standing to gain personally), you don't have to stand to personally profit, and that article was boosterism.
