Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from HireClix, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, then you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion notice, which will allow you to make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. bonadea contributions talk 18:42, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of HireClix[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on HireClix, 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 an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

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 ({{db-...}}) 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. Alpha Quadrant ^talk 16:06, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If Bernard Hodes Group is allowed to be on wikipedia I don't see why HireClix can not. It would be just as "inappropriate" as HireClix. Abrosch (talk) 18:08, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Singularity42, i was wondering if you got my last talk. It would be great if you could let me know what the differance is between the page that I created for HireClix and that of a similar company, Benerard Hodes Group, that is one of our competitors? I really would like to get HireClix up here so that people get reference wikipedia if they are looking for background on our company. I had sources for everything that I had written and I just wanted to know where I was striking out. I looked at all of the material that you have on wikipedia about writing articles and I didn't know what in my article violated your policy. I'd love it if you could get back to me when you get a chance. Thanks a lot. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abrosch (talk • contribs)

Hi Aborsh! I see your message above. I actually missed your original comments, and I only came across your comments today when searching for something else. I know this probably isn't what you want to hear, but unfortunately I can't remember the details of your article anymore. I patrol a large of number of new articles in Wikipedia, and it looks like this article was deleted three days ago (which for the number of articles I deal with, is an eternity). Only an administrator can review deleted articles, and I am just a fellow editor, not an administrator.

I see you have already left a message with User:Discospinster, who is the administrator who deleted the file, and can therefore review it. I would wait and see what feedback Discospinster has. Singularity42 (talk) 13:06, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think that I still have the article that I wrote. If I can figure out how to re-post it is there any way you could take a look at it and critique the differences between ours and Bernard Hodes Group's page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abrosch (talk • contribs)

No, for three reasons:

Recreating an article for just review purposes isn't constructive to Wikipedia as an encyclopedia. Be patient, and wait for the administrator to read your message. There's no rush.
Comparisons to other articles isn't a great argument. See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS.
The other article you have been referring to doesn't appear will stay up past the end of the week. As you can see from the top of that article, the article has been nominated for deletion. If you go to that deletion discussion, you will see the editors are really just debating about deleting the article or merging it into a different article.

I did take note of the flag for deletion. However, as en example I was wondering about another one of our competitors (TMP Worldwide) I notes that thier profile was a lot about the history. Is that why their article is appropriate? We really love the wikipedia site and are really trying to make it the least like an advertisement as possible. As a team we decided it would be great to be on this site for people to learn about the culture of HireClix and even less about what we really do. So that people who currently work here and/or want to work here can get an idea about what we are all about. Does the age of the company make a difference? Since we are a young company we might not be suitable for an encyclopedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abrosch (talk • contribs)
