Speedy deletion nomination of Japanese knotweed claims


A tag has been placed on Japanese knotweed claims, 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 "Click here to 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, you can place a request here. QuiteUnusual (talk) 15:02, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Japanese knotweed claims, a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Contest this speedy deletion and appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you.

If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Contest this speedy deletion, which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you.

 * To answer your question, the article is essentially a glossy brochure promoting the services of a specific organization. In order to have an article on such an organization, the organization itself (not knotweed, not the legalities behind it, that specific organization) must have been covered substantially and in depth by reliable sources unrelated to it. If that hasn't happened, we won't accept an article on that organization at all. If it has, the article should mirror what those sources have said, and the article should maintain a strictly neutral tone. 17:41, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
