Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Central Singapore Community Development Council, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous 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 G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, . Clicking that button 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 the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines. 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 independent 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. Island Monkey ^{talk the talk} 07:45, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Central Singapore Community Development Council do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia.  
Your edit here to Central Singapore Community Development Council was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://www.facebook.com/yck.ccc) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen (Centralsgcdc) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this:

1. It is possible that you have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization.
2. Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guidelines concerning editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. The article in question is Central Singapore Community Development Council. Thank you. Elizium23 (talk) 09:33, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; you are welcome to create a new account with a username that represents only you. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline. If your username doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice. Thank you.

Advice

As reviewing administrator, I deleted the article for the second time. It was indeed promotional, in the following ways, all of which are typical of promotional writing:

1. It went into excessive detail about the bureaucratic structure and goals of the organization
2. It uses vague terms of praise, public relations jargon, and unnecessary verbiage- for example,"actively promotes" "creation of a tightly-knit community through forging bonds between individuals " "has a number of departments dedicated to its services to the community," " An overview of this strategic thrust includes:"
3. It has many unsourced claims , for example "These services equip the unemployed with the necessary skills and knowledge in order for them to become more employable. " This requires a third party reference to show that it does accomplish this goal. It would have been better to say "These services are intended to equip the unemployed... " -- and even then it would need a reference.
4. there is considerable repetition, both of wording and of ideas.
5. The article reads as if it were copied from a web site. Do not copy from a web site, even your own -- first it's a copyright violation, but, even if you give permission according to WP:DCM, which most organizations are unwilling to do (it gives irrevocable permission for anyone to use and modify the material, even for commercial purposes), the tone will not be encyclopedic and the material will not be suitable.
6. The article has no references providing substantial coverage from 3rd party independent published reliable sources, print or online, but not blogs or press releases, or material derived from press releases. The web sites of related organizations aren not acceptable as such references. Without such references, we almost never consider that articles on individual councils such as yours are encyclopedic content.

I do not want to discourage you, but to urge you to help us by improving our other articles on topics about notable people or things in your area--or writing new ones----see WP:N for the criteria about what we are looking for .  DGG ( talk ) 18:20, 15 June 2011 (UTC)
