Speedy deletion nomination of Environmental burden of disease

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 Environmental burden of disease, 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, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), 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. 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.

Status and Advice

As reviewing administrator for the deletion, I have removed the deletion tag from the article. Please accept my apology on behalf of the encyclopedia for the unhelpful reception your article has received. We do indeed want articles on subjects like this -- not just want them, we badly need them. We very often receive inadequate unhelpful repetitive school essays, generally either on topics we have alreadu covered or on topics more narrow than we would want to cover. I think your article was confused with one of them. (and even if it were, some sort of friendly advice should be given, not just a deletion tag. )

There are some changes that need to be made to fit our style, and I have explained them on the article's talk page, Talk:Environmental burden of disease. If you need further advice on that see our guide to writing Wikipedia articles. For more detailed information, there's the free online version of Wikipedia: The Missing Manual by John Broughton (also available in print). But remember that anyone and everyone who wants to edit it in any way can -- and will -- do so.

However, it is inappropriate and unnecessary to keep a draft of the article as your user page, though appropriate to give your name, if you care to do so; I suggest you simply delete the text there. I think it extremely unlikely that your article will actually be deleted. (It certainly will not be immediately deleted, now that I have removed the deletion tag). If it should be--and Wikipedia can be sometimes unpredictable or even perverse -- I will move the article into a subpage of your user space so you can work on it further.

There is just one thing I must ask you: was the article posted on the web or otherwise published previously? If it was, and you own the copyright, there are some steps that need be taken and I'll assist you with them. If by any chance it was posted or published and you do not own the copyright (which I doubt is the case) then it would need to be completely rewritten.

I'd like to know when you've finished the revision, because I am frequently involved in assisting people from universities write articles for Wikipedia, and also for helping show people at Wikipedia how to give such assistance, and I would like to cite the way your article was first handled as the way we should not do it.
