User talk:Leshell3

A tag has been placed on Urban Learning Technology requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. -FisherQueen (Talk) 10:52, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Urban Learning Technology

Hello. I deleted the article under general criterion for speedy deletion #1, "nonsense". While that might be a harsh reading (well, it's not patent nonsense), the article did not define at all what it was about, what is the context, did not state why is that a notable concept (whatever it is). It looked more like a fragment from a leaflet introduction than a barely coherent article.

While you're welcome to recreate the article that would satisfy the minimal criteria, a brief research of my own indicates that it's a program generated by 501c(3) organization Juxtopia, and the organization and the program seems to have very little external media coverage (notability), unless you can demonstrate otherwise. Please see What Wikipedia is Not, particularly the WP:SOAP part—however noble the cause might be, we don't accept articles which are promotional in nature—see also Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. Thus, even a better written article on the subject will probably don't have any chance to survive regular deletion process; you're certainly welcome to prove me wrong though. Thanks for your understanding. Duja► 07:08, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page White House do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Tbh®tch^Talk ^© Happy Holidays 04:27, 23 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to White House appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe this important core policy. Thank you. Tbh®tch^Talk ^© Happy Holidays 04:27, 23 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, you may not know that Wikipedia has a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Using different styles throughout the encyclopedia, as you did in White House, makes it harder to read. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.
