Speedy deletion of BringIt
A tag has been placed on BringIt requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. —Largo Plazo (talk) 17:25, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

BringIt is an advertisement
The article BringIt has been 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 or service and which 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. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. --Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 23:38, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Responding from my talk page

 * Hi Vertz22. The text you've added three times as an article, and once on your talk page (now deleted), is just about the definition of what we consider blatant advertising. ( Please note that the blue word in the preceding sentence, and any after this I write are internal links to other pages providing information; you may say "duh" in response to this but some people aren't aware of this, and your posts make me think you may not have read the notices on your talk page carefully ). Text on talk pages is not indexed by search engines, so since the text of the deleted article was sitting on your talk page, it was never spidered by Google and other engines. If an article is posted to the encyclopedia mainspace, where article are kept, i.e., at a name that is not preceded by User or user talk, etc., then it would be searchable once indexed. However, this article cannot exist in anything close to the form you have been posting it, and it may be that the subject shouldn't have an article at all, which I'll explain a little later; first let's deal with the advertising aspect. Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion. Numerous users come here everyday seeking to spam Wikipedia to promote their products, their companies and often themselves. Encyclopedia articles must be written using neutral language and neutral facts, rather than pumping up a product; glossing over any criticism; using peacock language and other problems endemic to these tyoes of articles. A very common hallmark is writing in a first person narrative using possessive pronouns (we, I, our products). Articles should not be written by people who have a conflict of interest, in that they are involved with the subject of the article. As we often say here, if a subject is notable, someone unaffiliated with the subject will eventually write an article. On that secondary point, it may be that even if the article is neutrally worded, no longer appearing as blatant advertising, Wikipedia should not have an article on it because it does not meet our notability guidelines. Notable does not mean the same thing here as it does in everyday speech. Here it means, generally, being the subject of substantive treatment in reliable, independent sources. We have a subject specific notability for web pages at WP:WEB applicable to the article topic you have posted. Thus, even if you post the article in a non-blatant version, it may be deleted on that basis. I hope this note is helpful to you. Cheers.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 23:09, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
