User talk:GeekLink
A tag has been placed on Geekscape, requesting that it be 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.
If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. TellyaddictTalk 21:01,

RE: GeekScape
[edit]I understand what you are saying but Wikipedia has guidelines to inclusion. Your website/podcast fails those because it is considered not notable enough to merit it a Wikipedia article. As far as testing how to create/edit things on Wikipedia consider taking a look at guidelines to writing your first article and testing your edits in the sandbox.¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 21:43, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
