Speedy deletion nomination of Vaping in the uk


A tag has been placed on Vaping in the uk, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising,. Clicking that button 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. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. 189.25.205.234 (talk) 16:09, 5 September 2015 (UTC)

Your article
Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, and not for 'our opinion and information' about things. Original research WP:OR is not acceptable here. I may be wrong, but your article looked like what we call 'artspam'. That is promotion designed to look like an article, but leading to a link to someone's website. As to tobacco company funding, I have no idea who donates to Wikipedia, but donations do not affect editing. The regular editors here and the admins are volunteers who receive not a penny for our time, and we do not get messages from 'above' telling us to lay off a certain subject, or to persecute another. There are accounts with (WMF) in their signature, and those accounts are used for official business - mostly on technical or legal matters. Anyone who is getting paid for editing it and not disclosing it (WP:TOS) is liable to be blocked, and an admin would be likely to lose his/her admin powers too.
