Totaldebtfreedom.ca
A tag has been placed on Totaldebtfreedom.ca, 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 that 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 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 Totaldebtfreedom.ca 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. SWik78 (talk) 20:08, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

This page has been deleted twice now, by myself and another administrator. WP may not be used for promotional purposes. For a guide to writing about your company, see our Business FAQ (which also applies to non-profit organisations). Be aware that you will need to have 3rd party independent reliable published sources, print or online (but not blogs or press releases) showing the importance of the company. Considering the past history of the article, the acceptable way to insert it will be I've helped other company representatives write suitable articles, and I can do so for you as well if one can be written that will meet our requirements.

 * 1) select an new individual user name that does not include a designation of the company (that's one of our requirements about user names)--the present account is being blocked for violating it,
 * 2) Include on that user page a specific statement about your relationship with the company
 * 3) Write a proposed draft of the article on a subpage of it. Don't even try until you have good third party references at hand that show its importance, not just mention its existence.
 * 4) ask me or some other administrator, or at the Conflict of Interest Noticeboard, for an opinion about suitability--if I am in doubt I can insert it and ask for a community discussion at WP:AFD. Consensus there will be followed.
 * 5) be aware that if the subpage or your user page is judged to contain promotional material, it too will be deleted.

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia, because it has been identified as an account used for promotion of a company or group, with a username that implies that this has been done by that company or group. See FAQ/Organization and Conflict of interest.

This kind of activity is considered spamming and is forbidden by Wikipedia policies. In addition, the use of a username like yours violates our username policy.

You may appeal this block by adding the text  or emailing the administrator who blocked you. Your reason should include your response to this issue and a new username you wish to adopt that does not violate our username policy (specifically, understand that accounts are for individuals, not companies or groups, and that your username should reflect this). Usernames that have already been taken are listed here. DGG (talk) 18:30, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
