Speedy deletion nomination of FoodiesCompass edit

Hello Marv Scholes,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged FoodiesCompass for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Gaff ταλκ 02:12, 30 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

I am the deleting administrator of the article. The reason it was deleted was because it was blatant advertising. You admitted yourself when you wrote this on User_talk:Gaff: ...Maybe the content of its wikipedia page offers promotion but honestly speaking to turn this page into a biographical piece we need awareness of such an unique idea. Once the page is created, with such ideas the company will blossom through more food friendly cultures
Wikipedia is not a place to promote your business idea. In fact, having an article about you or your product/company may not be something you wish to have. I will not be restoring the article, so if you want to appeal the deletion, you need to go to Deletion Review and make your case. I recommend reading the instructions fully and preparing your appeal carefully, because at the moment I cannot see a single reason why the article should be permitted. Stephen!
