Speedy deletion nomination of Eukeries

Hello Eukeries,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Eukeries for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons.

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. Blythwood (talk) 21:56, 23 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Eukeries article

edit

Hi, the big problems with your article are:

  • It doesn't show that the company is notable enough to qualify for a Wikipedia article. That link goes to a guide, but basically any coverage of a company on here is supposed to be based on being covered in reliable sources, like newspapers, in the form of full articles and not just things like business listings.
  • A lot of it reads like a press release or promotional copy, not a factual encyclopaedia article.

Are there any extra citations you can add from reliable sources like news articles about this company demonstrating that it's notable? (Those are links to guides explaining this in more detail.) I'm concerned since the article may get deleted otherwise. Let me know if you have any thoughts or questions about this. Blythwood (talk) 22:15, 23 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
