Speedy deletion nomination of Emerade


A tag has been placed on Emerade, 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.  GILO  A& E&uArr;  01:53, 26 August 2013 (UTC)


 * I saw your note on the article's talk page, but still deleted the article anyway. To be honest, I found your comment contradictory--if the information is brief and factual (and, really, represents nothing more than a rephrasing of what is on the company's product website), how does that provide helpful information to a reader? As far as I can tell, the only real reason for the "article" was to send traffic to the emerade website. Now, even if we decided the article wasn't promotional, which would be a reasonable decision, I'm pretty certain the article would be deleted soon anyway. This is because, in order to have a WP article, a subject must be notable. In general, this means that the subject has been discussed in detail in multiple, independent reliable sources. I took a look, and can't find any mention of this product except on the company's website. Since it would almost certainly be deleted for that reason as well, I felt that the deletion on promotional grounds is justified. However, if there are publications discussing the subject, please feel free to contact me, and I can help you recreate the article in an acceptable form. Qwyrxian (talk) 02:26, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
