Speedy deletion nomination of The Australian Psychic Expo


A tag has been placed on The Australian Psychic Expo, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous advertising that 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 G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising,. Clicking that button 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 article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines. 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 independent 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. 99.175.158.134 (talk) 12:03, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

Contested deletion

This page should not be speedy deleted because... I am simply cutting and pasting from my own website at present, and have little valuable information contained within. However, over the next 24 hours I will be editing it in an endeavour to meet your criteria, for example by explaining the different types of readings one can have and how they are done, using various "tools" etc. Please note that I have already deleted all phone numbers, addresses, locations of expos (we run 29 events annually, and will continue to ensure the page is of more public interest, but I need 24 hours to achieve this. Thank you. John Gold


 * Mr. Gold - I am skeptical that you will be able to write this to our satisfaction. You have an inherent conflict of interest.  It is one of the little drawbacks to editing here, that we agree not to edit in areas where we are unlikely to be objective.  That said, I am going to restore the content to User:Johngoldexpo/Expo sandbox and let you work on the content there.  When you feel that it is ready to be published, you can reply on my page User talk:Syrthiss or you can place a  here (cut and paste just as it appears when you view the page, not the version you see when you edit that has a tlx in it) and explain that you wish to publish the page and the editor that responds can help you with that.
