Nazareth Academy (Wakefield MA)
A tag has been placed on Nazareth Academy (Wakefield MA), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising that 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 general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of Nazareth Academy (Wakefield MA) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Yourname (talk) 19:14, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

More information, and more editors
Your article about the Nazareth Academy will continue to draw attention from alert and experienced editors who are concerned about conflicts of interest, lack of references, and like concerns. I am sympathetic about your situation because I want to get an article about a faith-based high school submitted to Wikipedia, and have it stay up. I am waiting until my skills are better before venturing onto that project.

My advice would be to look for more information, especially information from third-party sources, which can be from printed material (books, magazines, etc.) as well as the web, which can be added to your article. If the present Academy is a successor to an earlier one, then the earlier history would be relevant to add to the article. If you can find someone else, or more than just one someone else to work on the article, that would be good. Someone else, or you, for that matter, will be more respected and accepted if you edit and improve articles other than the ones that directly interest you.

You should also consider adding photos of the school to Wikimedia Commons, where they are always accepted, and rarely raise conflict of interest issues, and then link to the photos in your article. Other links in your article to other organizations would be good, too. Feel free to contact me here or on my talk page. --DThomsen8 (talk) 17:10, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
