Speedy deletion of PhotoSlice
A tag has been placed on PhotoSlice, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which 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 our the guidelines on spam as well as the Business' FAQ for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on |the article's 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. ukexpat (talk) 15:49, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

For your reference, the following is the content of discussion at the deleted page Talk:PhotoSlice, which I deleted. Nihiltres { t .l } 18:21, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Talk:PhotoSlice
I saw that this page I added meets "Wikipedia’s criteria for speedy deletion". But I don't understand what I've done wrong. Yes, I am the owner of that PhotoSlice application, but I tried to be as impartial as possible. Could you please point out the advertising parts from the article, I really can't see them. But if you say it's so, I hope I can fix it into an allowable article. Thanks.

 * Also take a look at WP:Advert for guidance on avoiding deletion as advertising and WP:N for guidelines on notability. --ukexpat (talk) 18:38, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Photoslice.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Photoslice.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 01:54, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
