Ls industries
A tag has been placed on Ls industries, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant 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 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of Ls industries and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. 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 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. Ecoleetage (talk) 20:05, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

Welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia. To find out how to make useful contributions, take a look at the welcome page. To stay in Wikipedia, an article has to be about something notable, that is, of general interest. Click on Notability for an explanation of what that means, and on Notability (organizations and companies) for more detail. Also, it must give independently verifiable sources. Articles that don't meet these requirements are likely to be deleted. Follow the links below to learn more: JohnCD (talk) 20:22, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
 * To find out more about creating articles, read the Introduction and the Guide to creating your first article.
 * You should not write articles about yourself, your band, your client, your business or your best friend - that's a conflict of interest.
 * Wikipedia is not an advertising service. Before writing about your own business, read Business' FAQ.

Notability of Ls industries
A tag has been placed on Ls industries requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, 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. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. JohnCD (talk) 20:22, 20 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Before recreating an article on LS Industries, please explain - preferably on this talk page - how the company meets the notability guidelines for companies and what sources demonstrate that notability. —C.Fred (talk) 21:09, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

It is notable for several reasons. LS Industries is a top manufacturer of Airless Blasters. Airless Blasters needs a reference on Wikipedia. LS's founder Philip Enegren is notable because of machine designs patented by Paul L Enegren his father at Parts and Equipment. LS Industries owners Phil and Linda Weir-Enegren are notable for their community work, Rainbows United, Roots & Wings, CASA and the privatization these organizations offered. These organizations all need references on Wikipedia. Citations relevant to all of these will be added when the page is complete.Lsindustries (talk) 21:39, 20 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Given that there aren't any sources for the parent company, why should any of the products have articles? None of that says that the company has received significant coverage in independent sources (books, magazines, newspapers). —C.Fred (talk) 23:17, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure how you determined this. Once again, I was not finished with the entry and citations and verifications had not been entered. Lsindustries (talk) 14:22, 24 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I went by what was in the article at the time. If you have additional sources, list them here on your talk page; I can evaluate them and decide if the article warrants restoring. —C.Fred (talk) 16:58, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
