Speedy deletion nomination of Distinguished Group Inc


A tag has been placed on Distinguished Group Inc, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous 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 the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the 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 visit the page's talk 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 render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. → Σ  τ  c. 20:39, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

Legitimacy and other things
No-one said the company wasn't legitimate, and being registered in NY is totally irrelevant. The article was deleted because of its unambiguously promotional nature. See WP:SPAM and WP:NPOV. Lack of indicated notability wasn't given as a reason, but could have been. The notability of celebrities worked with doesn't rub off onto every company they touch. It's coverage in reliable independent sources that counts for a lot, not a list of celebrities. The sources must be more than just mentions in an article in the Dogwood and Catbury Times which is half a page in print about Sophia Ratzenpfezzl with one line about the company. See WP:RS and WP:CORP. Thanks.
