Deleting of Standard Register
Good evening. I was curious as to why you deleted my recently posted article on Standard Register? I am semi-retired from SR and dabble in communications. I attended a large public relations conference last week and learned much about social media and Wikipedia. I started exploring Wikipedia and found all of my previous employers -- except Standard Register. I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to start my Wikipedia presense.

I understand it was tagged for having advertising-like text. I actually pulled the text from the SR Web site (www.standardregister.com) and pasted it into my article. I went ahead and did some editting to take out the marketing garbage, but then it was deleted. Can you give me some guidance on how to get it back? I can certainly edit it further if that is the issue. SR is a great company -- in fact, it is a leading company in printing and document management, and it well reknown in the Dayton area (it is number 6 on this year's InformationWeek 500 list of technology innovators, and it was recently named a finalist for the Dayton Business Journal's Business of the Year). Just take a look at the awards page on their site. Quite impressive and a great addition to Wikipedia.

I look forward to hearing back from you and getting your insight.

 * The biggest problem is that you pulled the text from their website. That made the article a copyright violation, and had to be deleted. If you'd like to rewrite the article in your own words, please be sure to first check this link to make sure it meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines. Thanks, and have a great day. --Fang Aili talk 15:40, 1 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your insight. I'm going to go ahead and write what I know about the company for the article and keep from copying-and-pasting from the SR site. one question -- do I need to start my article from scratch with a new listing called Standard Register, or do you put my old site back up for me to edit? Sorry for the probably stupid questions -- please humor a newbie. Thanks again.

 * No problem -- You can start the article anew. If you would like to see the old article for your personal reference, I can email it to you. Let me know. --Fang Aili talk 21:44, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
