Hello, Linkaland, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Speedy deletion of Kevla Corporation

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Kevla Corporation, 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 blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Speedy deletion of Kevla corporation

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Kevla corporation requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company or corporation, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

Your recent edits

[edit]

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 07:29, 19 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

[edit]

I notice that you asked another editor why Google is more notable than Kevla Corporation. The Google article asserts the notability of the subject with statements like, “According to Millward Brown, it is the most powerful brand in the world.” And the article backs up those assertions with references to reliable independent sources like BrandZ Top 100 2008 Report.

Read WP:CORP for Wikipedia’s guideline for notability of a company and WP:RS for Wikipedia’s guideline for reliable sources. I tried Googling Kevla Corporation and couldn’t find coverage in reliable independent sources. Am I correct in guessing that Kevla is a new company that has not yet acchieved the coverage required for Wikipedia’s notability guidelines? If so, you will have to wait before posting an article about it until it does become notable. —teb728 t c 23:55, 19 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
