Speedy deletion nomination of Dr Des Fernandes
A tag has been placed on Dr Des Fernandes, 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 an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Dr Des Fernandes
What made the article seem like an advertisement was the reference to him as "the founder of Environ skin care"... "Environ is now an international brand"; and also "world’s leading expert" which is what we call a peacock phrase. Wikipedia has a strong policy on verifiability - any statement, and particularly one like that, may be challenged with "who says so?" and removed unless a reliable independent source for it can be cited. If there is a independent reliable source that calls him that, then cite it; if not, don't say it. Generally, one of our key requirements is a neutral point of view.

Read WP:Your first article for general advice on how to write a Wikipedia article. Note in particular that in order to establish notability, a requirement to have a Wikipedia article, you will need to show "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Myspace, blogs, places where anyone can post anything; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and press releases. You can cite his own web-site as well, of course, but that doesn't count for notability.

If you are employed by, or connected with, Dr Fernandes, please read these guidelines:
