Speedy deletion nomination of Sendy

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 Sendy 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, 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 from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. reddogsix (talk) 01:10, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

Swift tips

Hi,

First off, take a look at the discussion I started on the talk page about that link. I don't think there's a strong proscription against that kind of link (although linking to individual resources is probably preferred), however in situations like this, where a subject is very new and is attracting attention from a lot of new editors with a lot of new resources (both good and bad), it's possible for a link which may be on the margins to get taken off the page. To make that concrete, one of my reasons for removing the link was to avoid the argument from folks spamming other links that "you have XYZ link, so you need ABC link." Rather than engage that, it's much easier to limit external links to unified, authoritative sources on a subject.

As I mentioned on the article talk page, this isn't some policy written in stone. It's my guess as to the right path for this article in the immediate future. That could be wrong or it could be that other editors feel the link should be included. The best place for that conversation is on the article talk page. Please do post there. If you're the creator of that page, please, please understand that your desire to have the link on the page will be viewed with some skepticism. That doesn't mean you don't have a say, but you do have a conflict of interest, even if you don't make money from the site itself. So leave a post on the talk page I linked above and the editors of the page (that includes you) can come to some sort of consensus about the link and others like it.

• I'm a little disappointed you chose not to participate in the discussion regarding your link. Not doing so then re-inserting the link citing a consensus which was made without the knowledge that you owned the site makes me concerned. If your edits to the Swift page will primarily be the addition of this link (as they have been), then disclosing your connection to the site is important. Please visit that discussion and let the other editors aware of why you feel the link should be included. Thank you. Protonk (talk) 15:37, 17 June 2014 (UTC)
  • Hey Protonk, Apologies if I came off as disingenuous. I can see why you may be skeptical of me now. The reason I didn't participate in discussion was because as the creator of the site I felt my comments would be viewed with skepticism and would only do more harm than good (as you had mentioned above). I'll reply to the talk page with some more discussion.
    • Thanks! Protonk (talk) 15:52, 17 June 2014 (UTC)
