[edit] Speedy deletion of Joolop

A tag has been placed on Joolop 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 company or corporation, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. George D.

[edit] Re: hi

I did not delete the page, simply tagged it for deletion. The reason is that it was an article about a company that did not appear to be notable. I will add a welcome template with a list of useful pages to the top of this page in a second. Hope I've helped. George D. Watson (Dendodge).Talk^Help 23:00, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

I mean the company is not worth putting on here. Microsoft is because it's very big but Bob's Shop doesn't exist for a reason. It's just a corner shop somewhere. George D. Watson (Dendodge).Talk^Help 23:15, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

50 is not enough. It has not done anything special. Microsoft made the first PC, Google made the world's biggest search engine and the Wikimedia Foundation made Wikipedia. They should have articles, a company that has done nothing shouldn't. George D. Watson (Dendodge).Talk^Help 23:27, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
