User talk:Steve sladovnik

A tag has been placed on your user page, User:Steve sladovnik, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service, and which is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages: user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

If you can indicate why the page is not blatant advertising, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion  tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to your user talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also edit this page directly to give your reasons, 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 help make it encyclopedic. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. nonsense ferret  19:34, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Wikipedia is not Linkedin and, to put it mildly, discourages autobiographies. &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:04, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Would it have been accepted if somebody else posted it? Important milestones which change the way millions of people interacted with his mobile devices are facts and unfortunately  we have different opinions on that. . .. If one is to search out a personas name it should say something about that person  If your concerned is about removing autobiographies from wikipedia, you may want to consider reviewing the PM of the United Kingdom  - Ill bet that more than one person would consider that a autobiography. States his name, DOB, his University, professional positions, accomplishments, and much more. I am certainly interested in seeing your comments on this matter.

 * You created a user account for a person named Steve sladovnik, so you can see where we might assume that is you. Then you create something that resembles an article about Steve sladovnik, but you do it on your user page. That's why it appears to be an autobiography.
 * Would it be acceptable if someone else posted it? Not from what I can find via Google search, because I don't find any discussion about Steve sladovnik that wasn't originated by Steve sladovnik. In order to have an article on Wikipedia, the article's subject must meet the notability guidelines. It is possible I've missed some information on my search, though, so if you'd like to attempt to create an article for Steve Sladovnik my suggestion is to go to Articles for Creation and start there. -- &#124;  Uncle Milty  &#124;  talk  &#124;  22:30, 30 July 2013 (UTC)
