Olive Group
This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Olive Group, and it appears to be a substantial copy of http://www.linkedin.com/company/olive-group.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) MadmanBot (talk) 16:09, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Olive Group


A tag has been placed on Olive Group, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising,. Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to 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 tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Kolbasz (talk) 16:15, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Click here to contest this speedy deletion and appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you.

Please stop removing speedy deletion notices from pages that you have created yourself, as you did with Olive Group. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing.

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. Peridon (talk) 16:24, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
 * i am not i want to talk about the company i am not working there but i want to add it to wikipedia as other companies what's wrong with that
 * To start with, if you want an indent at the start of a paragraph, type a : instead - like I have done for your post. Two puts it further in, like mine. Then, at the end of your post on a talk page like this, type four ~ things. This signs for you. OK. There is nothing wrong in writing about a company. But you must follow our rules. Not every company gets an article. This isn't a place like Facebook, where anyone can have a page. It's not a directory where any company has a page to say how good it is. This is an encyclopaedia. Things here must be verifiable WP:V which means we must be able to check up. Subjects of articles must be notable. For companies, you should read WP:CORP. For any subject, you need to read WP:RS which is about the sort of references you must give to prove the notability. These must be reliable, and independent. Not the company's own site. That may be reliable, but many aren't. Not Facebook, That's not reliable. Articles must be written in a way that is neutral, like an encyclopaedia should be. If you say (as you did) "This affords us and our clients a unique freedom of movement and enables us to create safe and secure environments in a discrete and sustainable manner" you sound like an advertisement. Advertisements are not allowed here. Also, you say you don't work for the company, yet you are saying 'we' and 'our'. That says to me that either you DO work for the company (or are being paid as an outside writer), or that you are copying a company advertisement. Copying things like that is not allowed here. Be honest with me about this. I am very experienced in this area of Wikipedia, and I am sure that one or the other of those things is how things are. Peridon (talk) 17:51, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
