User talk:Domainer11
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Dotster, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Dotster is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Dotster, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

I deleted it because the first version of it was written like advertising copy (e.g. "Leveraging a dominant market position within the domain name registration industry, Dotster has strategically, categorically, and carefully nurtured and fostered relationships with its customer base and built a feature-rich line of value-added web-enabled sophisticated technology services around its core domain name registration product line offering."). Wikipedia articles must be written from a neutral point of view and not come across as promotional. ... discospinster talk 19:22, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
- Unfortunately Wikipedia cannot accept text that was copied directly from another site, even if it's only temporary (see WP:COPYVIO). If you wish to write an article and you don't feel that it's ready for the main article space, you can always start it in your userspace, e.g. at User:Domainer11/Dotster. Then when it's ready to be "published" you can move it to the main article space. ... discospinster talk 00:18, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Dotster 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 a company or corporation, 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.
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. 16x9 (talk) 01:21, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
