Speedy deletion of Tudor Arms Apartments
edit
A tag has been placed on Tudor Arms Apartments, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant 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 our the guidelines on spam as well as the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ for more information.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Greetings, Mettled. The problem is while I am sure Tudor Arms is a great condo community, it lacks notability, and you have a conflict of interest. Justin Eiler (talk) 03:47, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
Shouldn't a building that's listed as architecturally historical be considered notable, especially if it has connections with Bugsy Seigel? I would think it belongs just as much other other Portland landmarks like Ambassador Apartments or Arminius Hotel, which don't seem to boast more significance. I'm not doing this for financial or promotional purposes. My only intentions are historical and archival. Would the conflict of interest be nullified if I had a friend post this article?
