A tag has been placed on Bachelor II Groom, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.
If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Siobhan Hansa 00:22, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

- It isn't entirely about the subject of the article, although trying to compare this magazine to GQ is quite a stretch - creating an article about an unknown magazine is rather different from covering a magazine with the notability of GQ. Still, even a GQ article written like this one would be advertising. We are not a place to post puff pieces. Your edits to other articles promoting this magazine make your purpose here quite plain - and it is not acceptable. If you would like to contribute to the encyclopedia constructively, please stop adding edits with which you have a conflict of interest and start looking at how you can add encyclopedic content. I also responded with more direct suggestions for improving the magazine article on the talk page of that article. Thanks -- Siobhan Hansa 15:10, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
- I deleted the article because it was blatant advertising, as tagged by User:Siobhan Hansa. If you wish to work on the article, I suggest you create a User:Mediaguy725/sandbox and work on it there until you have sufficient sources to meet our notability criteria.
