A tag has been placed on New zealand business forums, 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. 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 the page 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. -- R OGER  TALK 15:43, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Hmmm
Though it's considerably better, it still doesn't read like something from an encyclopedia. Perhaps the thing to do is find some similar articles on Wikipedia and copy the style in which they are written. Next, I think it's far too long. Cut it down to a really good paragraph or two and stick all the links at the bottom in a section ==References and sources==. (See WP:MOS for more info.) I think you've chosen a really difficult subject as your first Wikipedia effort. It's much easier with a subject where there is loads of independent online material vailable: you just have to summarise it. -- R OGER  TALK 18:04, 20 July 2007 (UTC)


 * I've fixed the multiple sp errors, formatted, removed how-to and POV, still not sure about notability, so I've left the tag on, but not deleted. Why is this specific to NZ, could be anywhere? Jimfbleak 05:34, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I've also moved the page, should be "New Zealand", not "New zealand" Jimfbleak 05:37, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles that you have created yourself. If you do not believe the article should be deleted, then please place  on the page (please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag) and make your case on the article's. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Precious Roy 18:50, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
