== BizLink - Page deletion ==
Dear Skip,
can you explain me please why a page like "BizLink" is deleted (reason CSD
G11 - product/service promotion) and a page like "Borland" or "T-Systems" (for exeample) not? I really don't understand. Both pages can be interpreted as "promotion" for the company products/services. I've thought that wikipedia is a enciclopedia.
A friend of mine (the webmaster of BizLink) has tried yesterday to find "BizLink" ... and no information was found. He was not sure if is possible to publish any information about BizLink ... so ... he made a "test" search for "Microsoft", "T-Systems", Borland and so on ... and he found similar "product/service promotion" information published (for example "T-Systems"). In concordance with the "T-Systems" template he made a short description of BizLink. After few minutes, Cholmes75 has deleted the page. His e-mail answer (for the deletion reason) was:
"The article was written like a press release, using phrases like "BizLink is a leading provider of business development services" and "BizLink is the right destination for companies seeking capital." Someone else flagged it as a candidate for speedy deletion, and I agreed so I deleted it.
As for the T-Systems article, no one had marked it as a promotional article, so that's the main reason it wasn't deleted. After reviewing it, it too seems to fall under the same criteria that the BizLink page did, so I've marked that as a speedy deletion candidate.
One last note - when an article on a company is created or heavily edited by someone whose name matches that of the company, that's usually a red flag for someone reviewing the article. The idea being that if your company was truly notable, someone outside it would have written an article.
Regards,
Chris"
Now i've create a absolut neutral description of BizLink, and you come with the proposal for deletion. I really don't understand (you make also "promotion" for your page on your user page or?). If you want to delete this page ... no problem (i don't think that Bizlink need anay promotion at wikipedia). But if you do this, that please delete all similar cases!!! Be consequent! If this will not be the case, i will have no other possibility as to contact wikipedia responsible, to clear this problem. As normal individuum i can't understand why the "conditions" are not the same for all pages published on this platform.
Best Regards,
glemm
