Speedy deletion nomination of MacGregor International AB

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 MacGregor International AB 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 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. Mediran ^{talk to me!} 12:52, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

conscientious objection

Hi Markuswestermoen -- I reversed your changes on conscientious objection. That entry is defined at the top as being about conscientious objection to military service, which is the universal definition of that phrase. I recognize that people in other fields analogize their refusal to perform job duties in those fields, but that's an analogy; it's not part of the definition of CO. I believe that what would be most appropriate here would be to have an article on refusal to perform duties in non-military fields, that referenced conscientious objection as the explanation / analogy given by those workers. Then the CO article is linked to the other article in the appropriate fashion.

Just FYI, I'll note that the reason the analogy is often challenged is that military service has historically included conscription and other non-voluntary aspects, which professionals like pharmacy, nursing, etc., do not have, and that CO by law generally requires objection to the entire profession.
