Speedy deletion nomination of Antique Rugs[edit]

A tag has been placed on Antique Rugs, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

November 2009[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Antique Rugs, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and 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.Cathardic (talk) 17:25, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Removing Speedy at Antique Rugs[edit]

Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles you created, as you did with Antique Rugs. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please do the following:

  1. Place {{hangon}} on the page. Please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag(s).
  2. Make your case on the article's talk page.

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 17:25, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Antique Rugs[edit]

Hi Antiquerugs32, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your interest in improving Wikipedia's coverage. I have removed the speedy deletion tag from the article Antique Rugs that you created and explained my reasoning to the editor who placed that tag. Unfortunately, this article is essentially a content fork of the existing article Persian rug. It would be best to merge the two articles by taking content from the article you created and placing it in the other article. When doing this, you should include reliable sources that support the information you've provided (this is part of the Wikipedia verifiability policy). Providing sources makes sure that we aren't delving into original research. The page WP:Citing sources provides more information about how to add a source. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me on my talk page. Happy editing! Karanacs (talk) 18:11, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I was not threatening anything merely following policy. Now the only way you can keep the article is if you get sources to back up your claims. I suggest reading WP:RS andWP:NOTABILITY for more. Best of luck!--Coldplay Expért Let's talk 19:11, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
AntiqueRugs32, Coldplay Expert has not threatened you. It is acceptable for editors to place tags on articles if they think the articles don't meet Wikipedia standards. Administrators (like me) can then review those tags. I hope you can follow some of the links I left above to make sure that some of your content can be saved.

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Grsz11 19:22, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added such as to the page Heriz rug do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:32, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest[edit]

If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Antique Rugs, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Thank you. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:28, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add inappropriate external links, as you did with this edit to Antique Rugs. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. Alansohn (talk) 19:45, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you add inappropriate external links, as you did with this edit to Persian carpet. 4twenty42o (talk) 20:17, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Read all of the messages here on your talk page and click the applicable links. If, after you do that, you do not understand that this is not craigslist? Come talk to me. Regards! - 4twenty42o (talk) 20:23, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You are promoting your website on an encyclopedia. For starters that is a conflict of interest. I am sure that you sell awesome rugs, or own them er whatever you do with them. But how are you notable? Or rather how is your website notable enough to be added? Other than that there is WP:OR and WP:NOTADVERTISING. Must we go on? - 4twenty42o (talk) 20:48, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
