Speedy deletion nomination of Clayton W. Wood


A tag has been placed on Clayton W. Wood, 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 encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Nat Gertler (talk) 06:00, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

Deletion
Hi, a couple of problems I hope this helps. I assume you have a copy of the text, if not let me know and I'll sandbox it for you (although you might be better starting with a blank sheet).  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  05:21, 25 April 2013 (UTC)
 * It did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. (organizations and companies) (music) It is now Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references, or they will be deleted. Most of your text was unreferenced, and although Time USA could count as a good source, in fact it's just an interview with him, hardly an independent comment piece.
 * It was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include: An authority on... serving a host of global clients... Under his leadership... nimble billing control... created competitive marketing solutions... His holistic approach to business has helped launch multiple companies all of which are consistently growing under his guidance... one of the pioneers who led the vision... It’s a mutually beneficial business structure... showcase its expertise... more than 500 brands in key countries worldwide... continues to drive the development of innovative B2B... across multiple industries... sought-after speaker... renowned... consultant to multinational firms &mdash; this is a fan page/PR release, not an encyclopaedia article.
 *  Time USA Week recognizes Wood as a creative thinker and one of the formidable young leaders in digital marketing today &mdash; although it has a reference, the source doesn't actually say that. Also, you state it as if it's considered editorial opinion, when in fact the source is an interview where the star-struck interviewer is gushing about her hero.
