Speedy deletion nomination of Economic Development, City of Hamilton, Ontario


A tag has been placed on Economic Development, City of Hamilton, Ontario, 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 an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.

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; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 16:47, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

Clearly you don't understand
You have stated that you "understand the requirements better now", but clearly you don't because you have proceeded to add more text that is merely promoting the City of Hamilton as an economic destination. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 19:59, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Information.svg|25px]]I've deleted the article as the tone was blatantly promotional. Even if that concern were rectified this content would be more suited to a section of the main article on the Economy of Hamilton, Ontario. Beeblebrox (talk) 21:37, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
