Speedy deletion of People & Animal Welfare Society
A tag has been placed on People & Animal Welfare Society 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 a company or corporation, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

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 article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. mboverload @ 02:37, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of "People & Animal Welfare Society (PAWS)"
A page you created, People & Animal Welfare Society (PAWS), has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is obvious advertising or promotional material. i You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. «JavierMC» |  Talk  11:04, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but i dont understand how it is "obvious" advertising. PAWS is non-profit. If people donate, they donate, if not, they dont. all i want to say is that paws exists to provide the community with education on living a cruelty free life, minimising their carbon footprint and providing the with an alternative to the mainstream animal cruelty products. I dont understand how what i've wrtten is any different to the Coles supermarket entry which blatantly states their previous advertising slogans - how is this not classed as obvious advertising?

i believe this is reflected in what i have written. if you would be kind enough to point out where the content breaches the rules, i am happy to change it. the only reason i changed the name is because i left off the (paws) which meant you had to spell it out in full and because it had been deleted.

Thanks Ljac8092 (talk) 11:27, 22 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I removed my speedy delete notice to give a chance for the article to develop. I also made a couple of edits to it.  Try to write it in a more WP:NPOV and if you are personally involved with the organization there could be a WP:COI.  On second consideration, I noted that it has merit, but just needs to adhere more of Wikipedias article guidelines.  Cheers.--  «JavierMC»  |  Talk  12:14, 22 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Ljac8092 - i made a few minor cleanups, but you really need to overhaul this article pretty quickly otherwise someone will mark it for SD again. i will do my best to help you out, but you should read the info in the links provided on the tags that HaeB put on your page very carefully. also, keep in mind that speedy deletions are not necessarily requested because the article's subject isn't worthwhile. it's just that it needs to conform to wikipedia standards. keep at it, and please let me know if you have any questions. shirulashem (talk) 12:39, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the help. It's quite late here in sydney, but i will try and work on it more tomorrow night. Just so you know i am not personally involved with the organisation, but i believe their efforts are worth a mention. thanks again.Ljac8092 (talk) 13:08, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of People & Animal Welfare Society (PAWS)
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article People & Animal Welfare Society (PAWS), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process
 * As tagged, the article reads like an advertisement and there's no indication why it's a notable organisation (I'm sure they do good work, though). It appears in many directory listings, but I can find no discussion of the organization by secondary sources.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

 * I'm sorry but I have gone ahead and proposed it for deletion. It could easily be speedy deleted on sight, but this gives you five days to add any sources, independent of the organization itself, that would show it meets the notability guidelines at WP:ORG. I took a hard look myself and couldn't find any, maybe you can seek some out. THEN WHO WAS PHONE? (talk) 02:10, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
