A tag has been placed on Advamode, 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 encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

Reasons for deletion[edit]

Hey, I thought I'd come and explain why the page was deleted. Part of the reason is that the page was promotional in nature. You might not have meant for it to come across this way, but the article's phrasing is just too similar to a press release or a personal website by the company. Phrases such as " The name Advamode is an abbreviation of ‘Advanced Modern’ and is derived from the company’s ethos of providing services and products that are innovative and ‘ahead of the curve’" should be re-phrased to be more neutral. A good alternative would be "The company derives its name from the term "advanced modern", which Avamode partially describes as the ability to remain "ahead of the curve"." This isn't perfect, but it's more neutral than the prior sentence. The biggie here is to remember to say that the company phrases this as such, although I'd personally recommend not really including anything beyond "The company derives its name from the term "advanced modern"".

The other problem, and ultimately the biggest issues is that the page doesn't actually show any sources that would prove that it passes WP:CORP. The company obviously exists, but existing is not notability. (WP:ITEXISTS) You have to show that the company has received coverage in reliable sources that are not related to the company. (WP:RS) Primary sources such as press releases and the company website cannot assert notability regardless of what the pages contain.
