Speedy deletion nomination of GE Oil and Gas

Hello Mlb5550,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged GE Oil and Gas for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. LavaBaron (talk) 23:34, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
