If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,
participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors,
linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
and you must always:
avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

Proposed deletion of Collisional grooming[edit]

The article Collisional grooming has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This describes a concept that was first published in August, and is sourced to an arXiv manuscript. It has not had the chance to gain the recognition needed for WP:GNG. Recent research progress rarely has such an immediate impact as to garner independent commentary in this time frame, and no chance for the relevant community to decide whether the development is going to be widely employed.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. 66.57.4.150 (talk) 21:42, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
