Thank you.

A tag has been placed on North London Skydiving Centre, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous advertising that 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 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 North London Skydiving Centre 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 independent 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. Ahunt (talk) 10:42, 13 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for your note. No it is just random - no one saw the previous article and complained about it! That is the weakness of human input, we miss things. Right now what the article really needs is independent third party references to establish notability as per WP:N, which says "On Wikipedia, notability determines whether a topic merits its own article. Information on Wikipedia must be verifiable; if no reliable third-party sources can be found on a topic, then it should not have a separate article. Wikipedia's concept of notability applies this basic standard to avoid indiscriminate inclusion of topics." The exact standard for notability here is WP:CORP, this is to prevent spam listings of non-notable topics. Without some third party refs it won't be a "keeper". - Ahunt (talk) 21:22, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
