[edit] Spam in Bluebottle Beer

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Bluebottle Beer, by Grahamec (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Bluebottle Beer is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Bluebottle Beer, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Bluebottle Beer itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 08:04, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

I don't know how to access page, but unless you can quote neutral sources it will sound like an advertisement, which will know doubt get deleted anyway. As it says, read WP:WMD.--Grahamec 15:05, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

hi there, i've quoted a few additional sources but how many do i need as there are hundreds on the web? the entry is factual and does not include pricing, locations or anything like that. it's simply a definition/explanation. as such it is also no different to the permitted entries for brands like fosters lager, budweiser and many others.

[edit] Notability

Where is the evidence that these products have a similar notability to Foster's Lager or Budweiser? Have they won any national awards? Have they been acclaimed by a famous critic? Without such recognition, they are just more beer, and not worthy of a Wikipedia article. WWGB (talk) 10:30, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

ok, thanks for the feedback we'll include mentions by critics, awards and the rest in a future entry I'm am intrigued however that somehow Piss Beer and Holgate Brewhouse and Copper Coast Wines differ as they contain even less information and notoriety As you can imagine it's just a little frustrating trying to work wiki's requirements out but we'll add more info as you've requested and give it another shot regards

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Bb-medium-cmyk.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Bb-medium-cmyk.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:34, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
