A tag has been placed on Tactilize, 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 unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Mr. Vernon (talk) 04:46, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The way we write Wikipedia article is with a neutral point of view - the article on Tactilize doesn't read like a dispassionate summary of the topic - it reads like it's written by a salesperson for Tactilize. I could restore the article to your userspace for you to work on, but the sentiment in the deletion nomination is correct - there's essentially no content in it that's usable at all. I'll note that it's also worth reading the general inclusion guideline before deciding to write an article. If you have any questions, please ask. WilyD 07:27, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It's at User:Philjeudy/Tactilize for the time being. I really, really recommend that you read WP:NPOV, and review some comparable articles to get a sense of how the tone should be. Keep in mind that, especially in the case of promotional articles, hosting articles in your own workspace indefinitely isn't allowed either. Good luck. WilyD 15:43, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It's better - there's still a lot of issues, but it's more obvious how to address them. Firstly, I wouldn't rely on a single source; it's bad for neutrality, it's bad for establishing notability. It seems likely that http://frenchweb.fr/owni-se-detache-de-sa-socite-editrice-qui-devient-tactilize-61578/63455 and http://fr.techcrunch.com/2012/06/26/tactilize-plateforme-de-creation-d%E2%80%99applications-pour-ipad/ for instance, could be well used as sources and to establish notability; je sais un peu de francais, but I'm guessing you can assess them better than I can.
There's still a lot of - talking in a way that comes across as trying to address potential customers. Emphasizing that it's free software, (especially by free as in gratuit, not free as in libre, which is my impression), comes across as promotional. Referring to something as a "solution" is essentially salesman-speak. I'm not sure what the best example article for a comparison is - hmm. Maybe Whrrl? It's not too bad. Maybe SCVNGR? WilyD 08:12, 21 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, beyond that, I'm kinda confused. The source says "For €3,000, customers will get access to a dashboard which will allow them to create their app in full, with support for text, photo, video, maps and links." TActilize themselves say something different (i.e., that it's free, and maybe the plans for what it'll do are scaled back?). So it's a little bit tricky. My guess is there're changing plans there? (Pre-release articles are often a bad idea, especially read WP:CRYSTAL). I've made some changes, but I'm not entirely happy; I'll give it some thought. WilyD 08:31, 21 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well, the formatting is pretty neutral. My gut reaction is that the meeting of the main inclusion criterion is pretty marginal, and that most editors have an intrinsic bias against commercial topics, which means it's liable to be contentious. I think the best approach is probably to wait for the public release (which is imminent anyhow, yes?), then re-up with the more substantial press coverage that's likely to occur at that time.

The article Tactilize has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable app.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. —Justin (koavf)TCM 20:34, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of While42

[edit]

Hello Philjeudy,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged While42 for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons.

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. ubiquity (talk) 18:46, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Association Familiale Mulliez, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://wikimonde.com/article/Association_familiale_Mulliez.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

A tag has been placed on Association Familiale Mulliez requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://wikimonde.com/article/Association_familiale_Mulliez. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
