Speedy deletion nomination of Snoffer

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 Snoffer 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 web content, 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Harry the Dog WOOF 14:40, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

Help request

I created a page "snoffer". I am one of the promoters of the company snoffer.com which is launching soon. The page was deleted citing section A7. What is the solution for the same and how do I get the page restored.

• We have concerns when an individual comes on Wikipedia to promote their company, products, or whatever. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that records and presents entities that have already established notability. The A7 criteria under which the article was deleted was due to a lack of information or content that might indicate how and/or why the company is significant and/or important. What sets the organization apart from others? Any accomplishments? Awards? Statewide or national recognition? Does it function in a national or international role? Most likely, the company does not meet the threshold for inclusion, since it is a brand new organization. In the end, hypothetically speaking, if the organization was around a while, we would still need to establish notability. This requires significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the company. Once we meet this requirement, we would need to make sure that the article is not here merely to promote awareness of the organization. I highly recommend that you check out this information regarding conflicts of interest. If you have additional questions, please feel free to contact me.
