Speedy deletion nomination of Malaysia global business forum
A tag has been placed on Malaysia global business forum 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 an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles 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 organizations and companies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 hangon 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

August 2010
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Malaysia global business forum has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://malaysiaglobalbusinessforum.blogspot.com, http://malaysiaglobalbusinessforum.blogspot.com. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest). If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 09:02, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

Nordin Abdullah biography
Hi, I've restored some information to the Nordin Abdullah page and wanted to let you know why. Wikipedia generally discourages people from editing their own biographies because they can't be objective and might be tempted to add information that doesn't belong or remove information that is important. But at the same time Wikipedia's policy is to be very careful with biographies of living people to make sure we don't say anything that isn't true.

Even though you've left KasehDia etc it's still true that you did work there, and there are a lot of articles talking about the work you did. So I've put some of this information back in, but I've made sure that it's focused on talking about you rather than promoting the companies.

If the information (and the links to the articles about it) is removed again, then other Wikipedia editors will see that the page has no references to external information sources about you. In that case they'll conclude that you aren't a "notable" subject for inclusion in Wikipedia and will nominate the page for deletion. ("Notable" has a particular meaning in Wikipedia - it's not about importance, it just means that there've been multiple reliable and independent sources writing specifically about you.) So this is another reason I've put the information back - to make sure that the page about you stays in Wikipedia.

I've made sure to include the information about your resignation, and also about the companies you're working with now. However someone else might try to remove this information because it isn't cited, so the best way to make sure it stays would be to cite it back to some external source - a press release might be okay but even better would be a newspaper or journal article written by an external reporter. Because Wikipedia discourages people from editing their own biographies you probably shouldn't add these yourself (besides, it can be a bit fiddly to cite things) but if you send any to me I'd be happy to put them up in the proper format.

If you've got any other questions feel free to ask. You can reply here or on my own Talk page - I'll see it either way. --Zeborah (talk) 22:58, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
