Now all that being said, there is a strong concern that your first contributions are copied without apparent authorisation from various sources which is something we tend to worry about as I am sure you can understand. A second, more personnal concern, is that you should try to avoid conflict of interest or apparence thereof. One simple way to do this is to avoid creating new articles about yourself or your projects (or projects you've been actively involved in. But I do hope you stick around and help out as someone with your background certainly can. Cheers, Pascal.Tesson 03:43, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of FedEx Institute of Technology
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on FedEx Institute of Technology, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Guy (help!) 06:19, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
