Speedy deletion nomination of SocialFire


A tag has been placed on SocialFire, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate,. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent 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. Nat Gertler (talk) 14:03, 20 May 2012 (UTC)

The problem with SocialFire
Owen, the basic problem with the SocialFire page is that your future web project does not yet qualify for a Wikipedia page. I wish you luck with the launch; when the product is something that the press is talking about in significant ways, then it will meet the requirements of WP:NOTABILITY, and someone can post an article on it that will survive -- but it shouldn't be you, you have a clear conflict of interest. Put your effort into making a good web service, and once it's popular, someone is apt to create an article for it. Wikipedia is not like Facebook or MySpace; while anyone can edit Wikipedia, it's not here for anything and everything that folks may want to announce. --Nat Gertler (talk) 14:49, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
