Speedy deletion nomination of HH Sri Swami Guru Devanand Saraswati Ji Maharaj[edit]

A tag has been placed on HH Sri Swami Guru Devanand Saraswati Ji Maharaj, 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 as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

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.

Re: Page Deleted with no reason and original article recovery[edit]

Dear Amalthea

I write this note cause i need your help in the following matter. My page recently deleted, named: HH Sri Swami Guru Devanand Saraswati Ji Maharaj" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HH_Sri_Swami_Guru_Devanand_Saraswati_Ji_Maharaj has been deleted according to me by accident or human error.

Quoting the log shown in the deletion page, this say: "7 August 2009 Orangemike (talk | contribs) deleted "HH Sri Swami Guru Devanand Saraswati Ji Maharaj" ‎ (G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion)" It mentions: G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion which is a terrible mistake. There is not promotion or advertising whatsoever. It is a brief biography of someone based on the sources provided at the bottom of the article.

I would like to know how can i publish it or make it published and in the mean time if any error found, i want to know a way to make it publishable.

Looking forward to your help in this matter and subsequently publishing of the article mentioned above,

Thanks in advance,

Regards

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia
The main problem with the article that led to its deletion was that the language used in it was very praising, so much so that it was interpreted as blatant promotion, for example "was part of a brilliant and renown enlightened Spiritual Masters generation", or "Since the 60's many people and generations have witnessed truly deep and permanent changes and real happiness in their lives making Him one of the most important personalities through out the entire Americas hemisphere and the whole world. He is renown by many authorities, sages and yogis in India as a very and highly Enlightened Yoga Master."
Wikipedia articles must be written from a neutral point of view, and such language isn't compatible with that. In addition, extraordinary claims such as these need very good and reliable references, so that the claims can be verified. Your references all were to specialized Devanand yoga center, which aren't independant of the topic and have to be assumed to be biased, so they can only be used to support some very basic facts as primary sources.
Going forward from this, if you can write a neutral article on the topic then you are free to just start again. I would very strongly recommend that the first version of the article is a basic description of the person (who is he, when has he lived, and why is he a person of encyclopaedic notability), and that you add at least one reference to a reliable, independant source that confirms the importance of the person (if possible this reference should be available online - try checking google news, google books, and google scholar). I could provide you with the deleted text of the article, if you want, but I believe it will need a complete rewrite before it can remain on Wikipedia as an encyclopaedic article. If you want, you can also develop the article in your user space at first, for example at User:Henryalzamora/Sandbox, and once you think it is ready ask me or someone else to have a look, and then move it into article space. And of course, if you haven't yet, you might want to have a look at WP:Your first article.
I hope I've answered your question, feel free to get back if I can help you more.
