Speedy deletion nomination of US Tour of Palestinian Activists


A tag has been placed on US Tour of Palestinian Activists, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

''(1) Besides copying parts heavily from other web sites, the first half of the article promotes a tour that's already finished. (2) The second half is about 'pinkwashing', which is a term used by the Breast Cancer Awareness groups, while providing no references. (3) It could be considered promotional except the tour is already over. http://www.bilerico.com/2011/01/queer_palestinian_activists_to_tour_united_states.php, http://pqbds.wordpress.com/2011/01/14/us-tour-palestinian-queers-talk-politics-5-1822011/''

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time.

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 hang-on 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. 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. UnicornTapestry (talk) 18:23, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

I wanted to give you a heads-up after debating with myself about the article. If you can change some of the issues mentioned above, I think the article is salvageable. Specifically, I think the first part should be stripped out and you need citations for the part about 'pinkwashing'. The last part is the most interesting.

Good luck! --UnicornTapestry (talk) 18:36, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
