Speedy deletion nomination of Igor Swingedau, Belgian painter
Igor Swingedau, Belgian painter has been tagged for speedy deletion, a process through which unacceptable articles are summarily removed. 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 as well as FAQ/Business for more information. 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), 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.

 * Before you start editing Wikipedia, there are some things you should know: first, the article was deleted (and not censored, as you put it) for being a promotional article, as said in the warning above. As the deletion happened many months ago, I just don't remember the content of it, so I cannot point specific issues of it. But you can always talk to the administrator who deleted the page. Furthermore, your declaration of the facts being true is invalid unless the information you collected was already released as a book, or in a magazine, newpaper, reliable website, etc. Wikipedia is not a place for original research, which means users should not post information they found themselves. All pages should be sourced with reliable websites, books, newspapers, etc. Note that Britney Spears' and Paris Hilton's articles have many sources linked, and they are not written in a promotional tone, although they give much space for their achievements, for notability asserting reasons. Do read the guidelines about promotional material, original research and  notability of people before you accuse me of being partial and of "censoring" material, because that's simply not true.
