[edit] FabJob

A tag has been placed on FabJob, 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 which 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 the page 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 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. SkyIsFalling 17:00, 12 June 2007 (UTC) 17:00, 12 June 2007 (UTC) or

[edit] Notability

You have to use independent third-party sources to establish notability. Self-published information is not acceptable. GlassFET 18:16, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Verifiability

As per your request for a citation on FabJob I have put a link to the Dream Careers page which provides a snapshot of Amazon.com which highlights the book Dream Careers as the number 1 best selling book in the Careers category (ahead of Who Moved My Cheese). I am not sure if putting this image on the Wikipedia FabJob page is preferable. John McDG

Please don't put Amazon rankings into articles. They are meaningless. GlassFET 19:00, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
