Speedy deletion nomination of Office of the Procurement Ombudsman
Hello Opo boa,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Office of the Procurement Ombudsman for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Kges1901 (talk) 18:36, 14 January 2015 (UTC)


 * as reviewing admin, I decided not to delete via speedy. However, the article is promotional, and might well be removed by community decision at AfD unless fixed. The first step is to make absolutely certain that none of it is copied from your web site or other previous publication. Such material is only usable here if released under a free license according to the formalities of WP:CTW, but I would not advise doing so, because the tone of such web pages is almost always not neutral enough for an encyclopedic article.  Try to avoid bureaucratic jargon such as "’s mandate applies to all federal entities listed in Schedules I, I.1 and II of the Financial Administration Act .";  try to  avoid the praise implied in such phrases as "available to help when issues arise that cannot be resolved between suppliers and federal organizations." ;  avoid telling people how to apply.

And, especially, there must be references providing substantial coverage from third-party independent reliable sources, not press releases or mere announcements. Newspaper or magazine articles are what's needed.  DGG ( talk ) 19:58, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
