1) Before this class I used Wikipedia as a beginning point for research. I know that not all information on it is true, but it makes for a good place to start finding sources. I had never edited a page on the site before this course.

2) By looking at My contributions, it looks like I have been busy working on a new article about Xyience Energy. I have almost an entire page of entries just related to creating this article.

3) In order to look more credible to other Wikipedia Users i could go out and edit other people's articles and prove myself as an educated editor that brings value to the article I edit. Most of my contributions so far are me working on my own material so I could go out and be more social by helping others with their articles

Speedy deletion nomination of Xyience Energy

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 Xyience Energy, 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 an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to 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 tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance 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. →Στc. 23:36, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

peer review: valencia4723 I enjoyed your article it appeared to have a basis for a very good article. I would just add more information on the topic that would cover things such as the history, founders, or how its made. Those would just add more information to the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.165.46.55 (talk) 22:31, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
