Spam in DisSpam
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on DisSpam, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because DisSpam is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting DisSpam, please affix the template to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that '''this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

AfD nomination of DisSpam
I have nominated DisSpam, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Articles for deletion/DisSpam. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. ~ mazca  t 19:29, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree with you that this wasn't a spam article at all. However, I don't think there's been enough coverage in any reliable sources to make a viable encyclopedia article - please comment at the discussion linked above if you've got any comments. Thanks! ~ mazca  t 19:33, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

OK. That's fine. Thanks for reviewing it anyway. I have actually started pages with far less information than this that have gone on to be expanded - mostly by others - to some significant pages on the topic. Still I accept your decision/recommendation. I just wanted to be sure it wasn't an automatic deletion because of the mention of spam. Thanks for your time too!

Speedy deletion nomination of FRUIT


A tag has been placed on FRUIT 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 web content, 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.

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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Mephistophelian † 16:13, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of SMG$


The article SMG$ has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "No evidence this passes Notability (software)"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
