Teamint
A tag has been placed on TEAM International, 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 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 TEAM International 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. Cyrus Andiron 12:24, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

TEAM International edit
I don't know why it was deleted the second time. The version that I read and marked for speedy deletion appeared to be advertising. That is forbidden per Wikipedia policy. I did not see the second version, but judging by the deletion log, it was advertising as well. My advice would be to read this article. It can give you some more information. If you're going to write an article about a company than you need to look here as well. You're also going to need some reliable sources that reference the subject. I would also reiterate that you have a conflict of interest. You should probably not be creating or editing articles about TEAM International. --Cyrus Andiron 15:28, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
- The article make unsourced spammy claims like trusted, it must be neutral in tone with all claims referenced to independent sources. It read as if it was taken from a website. I didn't check, but if it is (bots check) it will be deleted as a copyright violation. jimfbleak (talk) 15:40, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Rationale edit
Hi there. This is what I think this (and all the other articles that you've created with the same name or varients thereof) article is an advert. The first para is OK, it sets out what the company is. It doesn't, however, set out why the company is notable. The rest of the article is simply a list of all the services the company provides. Nothing on why they are notable (backed up by external sources): 'This is what we do', that's basically an advert, no? All the links you've provided are to the company's own web pages. If the list of services were removed, I personally wouldn't tag it as an advert. However, I'm not at all convinced that what would remain would pass the notability criteria. Please see Wikipedia:Notability_(organizations_and_companies), especially the first paragraph: An organization is generally considered notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. As for other companies that may or may not be advertising, if you don't think they meet these notability requirements, please tag them as such! Hope this helps.

- Not a problem. You may find it helpful to write the article on your userpage's sandbox first. Whilst this is still part of wiki, it's not patrolled so heavily, and will allow you to tweak the page, get comments etc before publishing it to Wiki proper. You can have as many sandboxes as you like, just add a number onto the end of the page :) Ged UK (talk) 10:21, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
Please do not recreate this article or similar content that qualifies as promotional material without any indication of why this company is notable. Continuing to post such material is disruptive to Wikipedia can could result in a ban under Wikipedia policies against advertising. Please leave a mesage on my talk page if you still don't understand. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 17:50, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
