Speedy deletion declined: Novacam Technologies

Hello FYI00. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Novacam Technologies, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not unambiguously promotional. Thank you. Ged UK 13:07, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for letting me know. Please see the talk page of Novacam Technologies for discussion.

To explain the above more precisely (the wording is a little on the harsh side--it is a standard form notice.).

Since you have an admitted conflict of interest on interferometry, you may not add references to materials your own company has produced. This is one of the basic rules respecting WP:COI and people who persist in doing so are always blocked. The only acceptable way for you to add a reference to material from your company is to suggest it on the talk page of the article, and let neutral editors decide. Your addition of the link was highly improper; I however assume you did not realize it. The two links will now have to be discussed, and what is expected in the discussion is that you will stay out of it. Your function is to find good referenced, and suggest them to us--this can be a very helpful role in calling attention to useful material that you have good reason to know about, and such suggestions are always in order--as suggestions.

I myself have only a quite elementary knowledge of the subject, and will not involve myself in the discussion, but the article talk page is the place for it. Where I will involve myself as an administrator is in doing what I am required to do, which is to block you if you add such links or--even more blatantly unacceptable--remove links to a competitor.
