This orphan page is created and mostly maintained by self-promoting, non-notable businessman advertising his activities. Violates WP:NOT, WP:Notability, WP:AUTO, and WP:CONFLICT. Scarce online references to subject are self-created vanity pages and self-authored promotional pieces. No substantial or voluminous third party references available to establish notability. Ischium (talk) 15:59, 20 May 2010 (UTC) It seems like once again I am confused by Wiki. I tried to offer an explanation and could not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.4.16.41 (talk) 18:46, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Looks to be promotional and gives no reliable references to back up claims. The subject seems to have had quite a few businesses, but we aren't told what they are/were. This indicates to me that they are not particularly of note. Whether the article is self-promotional or just promotional I leave to others with more knowledge of the subject.

 * Comment: Most text in this article has been removed since proposal for deletion using the same Amnet ISP in Costa Rica where most earlier maintenance edits originated (identified using tracert command on User:186.4.16.41). Subject of article lives in Costa Rica, as stated in the longer, earlier version of the article. Article subject may be attempting to evade deletion by minimising presence? This action violates the explicit instruction forbidding blanking included in the deletion notice. Article history shows most article content was self-authored by user:Marklugo or from Costa Rican addresses (186.4.16.41, 196.40.10.246, 190.10.10.157, 186.32.56.95) identified as Amnet/RACSA ISPs using tracert. User featured already in a past WikiProject Spam/COIReport (entry #841). Current article is a complete orphan with no citations and additionally violates WP:CONFLICT and WP:BIO.

This is what I understood: "Feel free to edit the article, but the article must not be blanked, and this notice must not be removed, until the discussion is closed"... What did I do differently? MarkLugo —Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.4.16.41 (talk) 19:09, 23 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Gross article reduction from 399 words to 55 word stub violates blanking rule. Following deletion proposal, subject of article removed evidence of self-promotion and advertising by deleting link to own website marklugo.com promoting a product he proposes to sell commencing June 2010 (external links section of article). Self-authored and -maintained article appears intended to exploit Wikipedia to promote private commerce by advertising this link, violating WP:COI, WP:OR, WP:NPOV, WP:SOAP, WP:NOTADVERTISING.

What do you recommend I do. My intentions are to oblige by the Wiki terms and conditions. I was only trying to add things I felt relative to me and my professional career. **I really don't even know how I got on Wiki in the first place to be totaaly honest. Well, many thanks and good night. Marklugo —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.10.0.78 (talk) 03:39, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Since its shearing, the article looks ready for a Speedy Deletion as not indicating any notability and being unreferenced BLP into the bargain. Peridon (talk) 09:17, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment shearing... Speedy Deletion versus not so Speedy Deletion? BLP...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.10.0.78 (talk) 19:29, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, can't find any significant coverage. Marklugo, since you asked, please read this and this and WP:SOAP for some information on why this article is up for deletion, drop me a note at my talk page if you have questions. -- Nuujinn (talk) 00:31, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
