Speedy deletion nomination of Business, Accounting and Financial Studies


A tag has been placed on Business, Accounting and Financial Studies, 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, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Hi, thanks for message. You can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~. Looking again, there is a bigger problem in that substantial parts of the article are copied from various websites associated with this course. 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.

Also much of the text lacked independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. It is not clear to me why information about a course is encyclopaedic, social media sites would be more appropriate. Even if was not your intention, giving information about a course while not showing why it merits an encyclopaedia article looks like promotion for the course Jimfbleak - talk to me?  13:01, 6 November 2014 (UTC)
