Speedy deletion nomination of National Safety Information Exchange
A tag has been placed on National Safety Information Exchange 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 hangon 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.  role player 01:48, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from National Safety Information Exchange, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you.  role player 02:04, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

National Safety Information Exchange
The following comment is copied from Talk:National Safety Information Exchange: Although this article surrounds the National Safety Information Exchange, more importantly, it is it's work in the development of tools to help assure the safety of first responders and others exposed to hazards during disasters and emergencies. I hope you alot this article to be published as its value is credible to the safety of professionals. The article is more focused on the development of the Safety Reference & Resource Database.

Should I re-submit the article to focus soley on the safety database?

Your consideration is appreciated

Thank you for your work creating that article. It looks like the main reason that it was deleted is that it did not really discuss how the Exchange has had an impact for first responders and other safety personnel. To do this, you need to look at how it has been discussed in reliable third-party publications. An article or statement detailing howNSIE directed volunteer efforts during the aftermath of hurricanes Katrina and Rita would be a good start, as would a statement from the American Society of Safety Engineers discussing the database. If you would like, I or any other admin can move the deleted article to User:Safety Advocate/National Safety Information Exchange where you can work on it while looking for references.
