Speedy deletion nomination of Lee Design Group


A tag has been placed on Lee Design Group 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 an organization or company, 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.  Acroterion   (talk)   17:29, 17 June 2011 (UTC)

 * I understand that you were asking about the deletion of your article on the Lee Design Group. You did not indicate that the firm was notable according to Wikipedia's guidelines: essentially, there was no indication that the firm has received significant notice from multiple, independent sources in major media of more than a trivial nature. RTKL, for instance, easily clears that bar. While work in health care center infection control is important, it's not the sort of claim that makes the firm unique or prominent in a broad context, as opposed to a niche. If the firm has been the subject of a solid profile in a business publication (preferably non-local), or has received significant press in Architectural Record or Architect or the like, that would be helpful. Additionally, the article was a bit on the promotional side.  Speaking as someone who writes marketing material for my own architectural firm (which is not present on Wikipedia, nor eligible for inclusion), it's very hard to take off one's marketing hat and put on an objective encyclopedia-writing hat where one's personal endeavors are concerned, so I stay away from matters that concern me personally. This is why we strongly discourage editors from writing about their own firms.
 * Please feel free to write about other firms: architectural coverage on Wikipedia is spotty at best: Skidmore, Owings and Merrill isn't much better than a project list and a list of prominent principals. RTKL is worse. If you wish, I can place the deleted content in your user space for you to work on.  Acroterion   (talk)   12:00, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
