Health Grades, Inc
Hi, I changed the name of the article you created as Healthgrades; this can be done by using the tab "move" in the top of the article. You can take a look at WP:MOVE for more information. On the other hand, the better way to make sure that users get to the information they look for is to use REDIRECTS instead of empty pages with "See Article"; you can read about this in WP:REDIRECT. Happy editing! -- docking man  talk 19:13, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

== Be aware that linking to websites that you are affilated with violates WP:COI. You have made some constructive edits to the content of articles, but be wary of inserting external links. Linking too frequently will be viewed as spam and it is likely that the links will be removed. You are welcome to submit the links for discussion on the talk page of the article in which you are interested. By letting other editors make the call, you can avoide violating the guidelines and improve the chances that your links and edits will not be removed. I also invite you to read WP:NPOV. You can get involved in the fight against spam too. Visit WikiProject_Spam to learn more. Thanks. Nposs 04:58, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of HealthGrades, Inc
A tag has been placed on HealthGrades, Inc requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
