A tag has been placed on R.J. McCarthy Promotional Products, 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, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article.

You should read the guidelines at WP:ORG, WP:ADVERT, WP:COI and WP:Business' FAQ. Articles not complying with these guidelines are likely to be deleted. The underlying theme is that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an advertising medium or a business directory, and that you should not be writing about your own business.

If you continue to insert promotional material and links, as you did to School uniform, you may be blocked from editing. JohnCD (talk) 17:38, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
