NorgesEnergi edit

Hi Sennikken. It seems to me that the company may meet the guideline for inclusion. It would seem however, that a neutrally written article on the subject would also have to include a fair share of controversy and criticism, as the company is mentioned in this context in most of the sources I could find.[1][2][3][4] Regards, decltype (talk) 10:13, 31 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hi Decltype. I agree that an article on Wikipedia should show the truth about a company. Except from the first article you mention they all are older news stories about cases that are not longer an issue. And the article in Altaposten refers to a case that Forbrukerombudet ruled in NorgesEnergis favor, not Ishavskraft. So to be neutral we would have to show a news article with the full story. Unfortunately that kind of stories seldom gets published. A news search would therefor give you not only neutral sources but also articles where competitors of NorgesEnergi contacts their local newspaper with their story, before Forbrukerombudet or Elklagenemda has been contacted. A more neutral source would be the news from Forbrukerombudet and Elklagenemda, since they actually look into the case before they conclude. Those sources would also always be updated with new complaints against NorgesEnergi and other end-user sellers of electricity. Wouldn't you agree they are better sources then local newspapers? Since the article is deleted I can't update it with the new sources so I hope you will help me restore it.--Sennikken (talk) 07:51, 1 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
Hi, in case you haven't noticed, I have already restored the article. We may not be able to present "the full story", but we can give as detailed an account as possible. The sources I listed are mostly national newspapers considered reliable for our purposes. Seems to me that there has been a few controversies in the past, the article should mention those.

Thank you - when I searched yesterday I couldn't find the article, but today I found it. It's a short article so adding details will improve it. Since there now is both references and notability has been proven, how can the tags about that be removed? I guess I can't remove them.--Sennikken (talk) 11:40, 2 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
Technically you can, but it's better to have someone else do it. I agree that those tags no longer apply so I have removed them. I plan on expanding the article with any info I can find _when time permits_. Regards, decltype (talk) 11:45, 2 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of NorgesEnergi edit

 

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 NorgesEnergi requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. PamD 17:36, 23 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
