The article Finger Lickin' Records has been 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 or service and which 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. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

- Sry it's not alooking good at the moment, it really does read like a promo piece. Step away from the subject matter and ask yourself why is it notable? Does it meet the guidlines I posted to you on the article talk pages? Also you may want to lose the capitals for names or read WP:MOS. I'm trying to help you out here, but I'm sure someone will come in soon and put a speedy delete tag on it. Cheers Khukri 15:43, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
- I deleted this article as it was highly promotional, probably because you copied the text from the Finger Lickin' Records website. Copy/pasted text from commercial websites is not acceptable, as the text has not been released under a free license and is often not from a neutral point of view. In this case, it violated both of these. I also feel I should point out to you that writing articles about yourself or subjects personally close to you is discouraged, due to possible conflicts of interest. If you want to write a neutral original article using independent reliable sources (such as independent reviews, music magazines, etc), I welcome you to do so or apply for undeletion at WP:DRV.
