[edit] Immediacy

A tag has been placed on Immediacy, 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. LittleOldMe 10:21, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Immediacy CMS

Hi CattleGirl, You have recently deleted an article I am trying to publish about the Immediacy CMS. Considering that this is a commercial product I can quite understand why you are deleting it - although I think I have kept the article purely factual and free of blatant commercialism ? However, with over 300 major UK organisations using Immediacy CMS, it is a significant player in the content management industry and the content management section is not showing a complete picture without an Immediacy article. There are other similar CMS vendors already represented in the section. If you were able to take a few minutes to let me know what it would take to publish an acceptable article about Immediacy, I would really appreciate it. Many Thanks.

Hi, Simgard, how are you?

Ok, I'll recreate the article now, provided of course that you work with it (I may have been a bit quick in deleting). However, please make sure you are not violating WP:COI in doing so- have a look at our Neutral point of view policy, that can give you some more information.

When you work on the article, make sure that you put in some more external links- third party, so outside the Immediacy CMS line of websites.

That's all I can think of at the moment, besides just expanding the article to have some more in it. For instance, put in information about the origins of the company, maybe some past happenings with the company. It has to be notable.

I have to go offline now, sorry about the rather quick reply- but I am happy to answer any more of your questions later, or you may get quicker help if you need it at the Help Desk or using {{helpme}}. I hope that helped you! Cheers- CattleGirl ^talk 10:56, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
