Proposed deletion of DuPont Fabros Technology Inc.
Hello, Moviegirl35. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, DuPont Fabros Technology Inc., for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:


 * 1) edit the page
 * 2) remove the text that looks like this:
 * 3) save the page

Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Lithopsian (talk) 17:13, 23 February 2016 (UTC)

Help me!
Please help me with making my page accepted. I'm told it's too much of a sales pitch. I thought I put information about the company and that it wasn't salesy, not sure the best approach to editing. Any advice would be greatly appreciated :-)Thank you

 * First of all, Wikipedia content should be based on reliable third-party sources. The only factoid in the article which cited a source was their "recycled water customer of the year" award (and I have doubts about that source's reliability, being published with a marketing company). All other claims of greatness - "leading owner of national wholesale data centers", "home to many of the world’s top brands" (which is flat-out wrong), "Tier I markets" (such as Piscataway, New Jersey? Seriously?), "reliable, concurrently maintainable and efficient" and so on were completely unreferenced. The article would have needed to be rewritten in its entirety to become a valid encyclopedia article. Information on the company, on the other hand, was very scarce. The only hard facts were the square footage, the power, and the recycled water award. I would have assumed that the really important parameters for a company of data centers are a little more data-related than floor space and electricity. For a company, especially a publicly-traded one, I'd also expect some financial data such as revenues, or maybe the number of employees. I'd advise you to use the Article Wizard to write a draft that summarizes what independent sources have reported about the company and to submit it for a review by an experienced editor.
