Speedy deletion nomination of Teliris

A tag has been placed on Teliris 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 an organization or company, 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 that has been nominated for deletion (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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

{{hangon}}

Telepresence is regarded as highly expensive and only for the use of CEO. Teliris telepresence is totally different to other telepresence corporates in it's reach and affordability.

Teliris deserves a listing as a worthy telepresence provider, I've removed all the marketing USPs to just create at presence so we have a place on wikipedia and telepresence history. I intend to upload pictures of our new systems and technology alongside independent research material.

Any help on how we might achieve this would be great, we have a story to tell about this remarkable technology.

Can I also draw your attention to Cisco and Polycom entries, again a global dominates.

No, you need to put the {{hangon}} message on the page that has been nominated for deletion, not on this user talk page. If you leave it here, an administrator who is reviewing the nomination will not even be aware that you have made a comment. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 14:36, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Russ, thanks but I only have user talk pages, It is really hard as a communications expert to not wax lyrical about telepresence and our systems having seen the rubbish that is out there and followed and existing example such as the Cisco page. I imagine I'm now too late and will have to try and start again. Appreciate the comment. Jo

You are missing (actually missed) the point. No one said the page was rubbish, the existence of other pages such as Cisco or Polycom is immaterial to any discussion of the notability of an article on Teliris. This article was removed not as a judgement of the company but a judgment of the article. All articles must have references to reliable sources to demonstrate notability. The Cisco article has 26 references to general sources such as Reuters and CBS News as well as industry sources such as LightReading and NetworkWorld. Had significant coverage in sources like these been produced for Teliris, it would not have been removed. As R'n'B pointed out, by commenting here rather than the article's talk page as directed by the deletion notice, your thoughts on the matter went unnoticed.--RadioFan (talk) 12:02, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I did that under another user name, Teliris, the administrators to that were less helpful and blacklisted me which is why I have had to start again. Both your comments are much more constructive. With sources such as Ovum, Wainhouse, Gartner and environmental charities to quote I will go again. I need to sources these from other locations that our website I would imagine?

You likely got blacklisted for a reason, I suggest you slow down a bit and ask questions before recreating anything. I've userfied the talk page you created. Talk pages are intended for discussion, not articles. You may continue working on the article at User:6G/Teliris until its to a point where it might meet WP:GNG and avoid deletion as a result. Dont hesitate to ask questions, use {{help}} here on your talk page to get a volunteer's attention to your question.--RadioFan (talk) 17:35, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome!

Welcome to Wikipedia, 6G! I am The ed17 and have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or by typing {{helpme}} at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome!

{{helpme}} Thanks, I'm struggling to get my page live, I've edited it, based on the kind advice offfered but not sure if I got in with all the reference material prior to the deletion. I then re-created and now I'm puzzled.....Everyone who has commented has been so helpful. Jo PS this one you've commented on isn't the latest...

Hit there, you're very welcome. The main thing you need to worry about at the moment is WP:ARTSPAM. Because Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, we strive to write with a neutral point-of-view, giving views to both the positives and the negatives of a subject and not attempting to promote them in any way. While this article is nowhere near a truly terrible case, wording like "In 2009 Teliris redefined the telepresence industry with the unveiling of 6G telepresence, the first-ever truly affordable platform that extends an uncompromised experience to locations anywhere in the world by dramatically reducing bandwidth and related costs" sounds like an advertisement for (I'm assuming) your product. I know you want to get people to buy it, but Wikipedia requires a neutral, well-written article. Another thing to think about is WP:COI, Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy, but I'll let that slide; you seem to be a well-meaning fellow, one who is receptive to comments like this one. :-) Cheers, —Ed (talk • contribs) 12:52, 28 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

One Question

Morning, I'm so enjoying this. I have one question whilst we work on the page. Do you continually look at the page and decide when/if to remove the !? If so you deserve a medal as there must be so many people like me who need your help.

The issue I've got at the moment is that the Gartner and Ovum reports aren't published to the public you need to pay the membership fee....but I'm trying. 6G (talk) 09:12, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again 6G! To remove what? There are many people here who need help, but the problem is that not many editors go out of their way to help. :|

Re the reports, if they are online, add a link but put "(fee required)" or "(membership required)" in the citation. For an example, see how the New York Times articles are formatted here: Nikita Khrushchev#Notes. Cheers, —Ed (talk • contribs) 14:03, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
