Speedy deletion nomination of Silatech


A tag has been placed on Silatech 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 clear 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 verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. 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; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on 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.

About Silatech
Hi Sari, and again, welcome to Wikipedia!

On Talk:Silatech you wrote: Hello,

I have copied some of the content from www.silatech.com. However, I deleted a big junk of content as i was notified.

Moreover, I'm a employee at Silatech, which is a non-profit organization well known in the region and thought it should be on Wikipedia.

Furthermore, I haven't added spams or tried to advertise Silatech on Wikipedia.

Best regards,

Sari Al-Yasin, Well done indeed for re-writing the article in your own words. As you are an employee of Silatech, you may have a "conflict of interest" if you write about it. Can you now find some mentions of Silatech outside its own website to add to the article? To be kept as a Wikipedia article, Silatech must have has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Can you find, say, newspaper articles about Silatech?

Please feel free to contact me about this, or any other Wikipedia question. --Shirt58 (talk) 10:55, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Ms Al-Yasin, where is the Silatech initiative located? "The Arab world" could be anywhere from Tunis to Damascus via Aden and all the parts inbetween. Could you possibly be more add a more specific location?--Shirt58 (talk) 13:01, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
