Speedy deletion nomination of Smartsupp


A tag has been placed on Smartsupp 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 important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Speedy deletion nomination of Smartsupp
Hello Vladimir.sandera,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Smartsupp for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Trivialist (talk) 23:54, 3 December 2014 (UTC)

Conflict of Interest
Vladimir, you appear to be editing as part of or on behalf of a group or entity. This is not normally permitted per Wikipedia's Conflict of Interest policy. Please read over the linked page to familiarize yourself with this policy. Thank you VViking Talk Edits 12:54, 4 December 2014 (UTC)

I just read the COI article. I am part of Smartsupp team. Does it mean that I can't create a wiki page about our product? If so, why not? No one paid me anything to do this. I just think our product is well known and should be listed on Wiki.

If you think my article is biased or promotional, please tell me which parts seem promotional to you and I can correct them. I don't think it's promotional, I have listed only factual and neutral information about our product.

I have seen articles about other live chat products on Wiki (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LiveChat), so I don't understand why Smartsupp shouldn't be listed.

Advice
Please read WP:WEB about notability for websites and WP:RS about the reliable independent sources that are needed to prove the notability. Being in lists is not what we are after. We need reviews of the site in reasonable depth (not just a mention or two lines in an article about something else) in reliable sources. That rules out Facebook etc, CrunchBase, TechCrunch, forums, blogs, wordpress or blogspot or weebly pages, wikis, own sites, sites belonging to organisations hosting or providing finance for the subject, or press like The National Enquirer or The Sun - or anything you or your employees have written. We also exclude 'interviews' with the CEO where the questions are obviously prepared in advance and the answers supplied by the PR department. Your article was tagged over an hour after your last edit, and wasn't deleted for several hours. At speedy deletion, that's quite a long time. I'd have deleted for lack of indicated significance, rather than promo, but the result would be the same. BTW please read WP:COI (conflict of interest) as you would seem to be closely connected to the site. This isn't forbidden, but is strongly not recommended.

More advice
Hi, thanks for message. You can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~. I deleted your article because
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Peridon has given excellent guidance above on what constitutes an independent source. I see no claim anyway that the product is notable, such as verifiable number of paying users or reviews in reputable third-party sources as indicate above
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. An example of aunsourced claims presented as fact include: enables companies to communicate with their website visitors in real-time, improving their online marketing and customer service. The content consists entirely of the supposed merits of the product, with no genuine independent evaluation or criticism.
 * You have an obvious conflict of interest when it comes to editing articles about this subject. If, after reading the information about notability linked above, you still believe that your organisation is notable enough for a Wikipedia article (and that there is significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources), you could, if you wish, post a request at Requested articles for the article to be created. See also Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.

The point of speedy deletion is that no discussion is needed because the article clearly fails one or more of our criteria. In this case, the only decision was whether to delete as non-notable, spam or both Jimfbleak - talk to me?  16:59, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
