Speedy deletion nomination of APSDA


A tag has been placed on APSDA, 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. Insulam Simia (talk) 05:05, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of APSDA


A tag has been placed on APSDA requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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".

Moved APSDA
Hi! I moved APSDA to your userspace at User:Kenji Kondo/APSDA so you can continue to work on it since you showed an interest in trying to fix the article's issues. Offhand the biggest problem here is that the article lacks coverage in reliable sources (WP:RS) that shows notability. A reliable source would be something along the lines of coverage in a newspaper such as the New York Times or on a news show. Anything that has been released by the organization itself is seen as a WP:PRIMARY source and cannot show notability. For example, press releases are seen as primary sources regardless of where it's posted. You might also want to be careful about how you phrase things, as some of the sentences read a little promotional. For example, the sentence "APSDA is committed to serve for the well-being and the empowerment of Deaf people in Asia Pacific" reads like something you'd read off of a press release or company website to promote the company. It's better to rephrase this to sound a little more neutral. In any case, good luck! If you have any questions, I recommend looking to WP:ORG, a WikiProject that is set up to help work on company and organization related articles. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   08:27, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
