User talk:SkincareMel

A tag has been placed on AHA daily skincare regimen, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Pan Dan 17:28, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I think Pan Dan may have misunderstood that AHA is not a particular product. Nevertheless, this is not really a suitable Wikipedia article. Wikipedia is not an instruction manual.. From your username I can tell that skin care is important to you - please review our guide to your first article for some guidelines about what kind of articles we are looking for, before you post any more skin care articles. You may also find our welcome page helpful. Regards, FreplySpang 17:51, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the guidance. I deleted the article as requested. This was in no way a promotion - AHA is a chemical acid and is used in hundreds of products. It just happens that there are no Wiki articles on its most wide-spread use - as a component of a daily regimen. This was solely and specifically to provide information where none currently exists. I am sure that someone will eventually post similar info in a correct and appropriate manner.SkincareMel 19:20, 1 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, I did misunderstand, and I'm sorry for that. By the way, have you thought of contributing to Wikihow?  Pan Dan 19:37, 1 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your good intentions - I'm sorry that it didn't quite work out. Cheers, FreplySpang 00:28, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
