Speedy deletion nomination of Edison Nation
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 Edison Nation 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 a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organised event, 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, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. --Finngall talk 01:33, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Downejl, I see you put an "under construction" sign on the Edison Nation page you created, but you need to have enough already written in order to prove the subject deserves an article. I hope you're not discouraged by this. ~EdGl! 03:22, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
[[]EdGl] , Discouraged, no. I have been typing the page in word, and the page is a test spot. My plan is to post a more complete article after I actually learn how to use Wikipedia. Have patience with me, for I use "hack-chop code". For example; I am 'chopping' the functional code from the walmart -kr'pedia page.Downejl (talk) 05:14, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
