Speedy deletion nomination of Mountaintop University


A tag has been placed on Mountaintop University 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.

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. Theroadislong (talk) 21:09, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Rough welcome
Sorry to see you've received such a rough welcome. Because Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, it's a summary of what other people have reported about a topic (and in general, those people need to be independent of the topic). If you're going to write an article, you should ensure that the content comes from reliable, third party sources. This usually establishes that the topic is suitable for inclusion on Wikipedia under the usual inclusion guidelines. Directly referencing those sources is thus a good idea. Otherwise, articles usually end up deleted. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Wily D 08:23, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

Deletion discussion about Todd_Delmay
Hello, Qleapsdad,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Todd_Delmay should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Articles for deletion/Todd_Delmay.

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks, BusterD (talk) 17:40, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
