Speedy deletion nomination of Mortimer snodgrass

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Mortimer snodgrass, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant 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 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of Mortimer snodgrass and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. 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. Mr Stephen (talk) 20:36, 26 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Please don't remove notices

  Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Mr Stephen (talk) 20:44, 26 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your message. It looks like an advert to me, and it's not obvious to me how it could be turned into any else without a root and branch rewrite. But by all means make a case at the talk page and we'll see what a third party thinks. Regards, Mr Stephen (talk) 20:59, 26 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
