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. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the company, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company claims or interviewing its management. You gave no references of any kind
 * you gave no information to show how it meets our notability criteria, such as sales figures or awards won. Since it's a vanity press production, it's difficult to believe that it meets our criteria. You said the JSA: The World page is simply show that the book exist and nothing more&mdash;but that's not enough for an encyclopaedia article, it must be notable
 * Your entire factual content other than plot summaries was the author and publisher. Writing an article to sell your own book with is clearly promotional.
 * the article was created in a single edit without wikilinks or references, and looks as if was copied from an unknown and possibly copyrighted source. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient.
 * You do not own this page, and your removal of a speedy deletion tag does not look like good faith editing.
 * thank you for the chance to allow me contribute my book&mdash;you have an obvious conflict of interest when it comes to editing articles about this subject. You have a financial stake in promoting this topic, which counts as paid advocacy. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a black hat practice. Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly. Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:   .
