Speedy deletion nomination of 1,000,000 socks for Paul Wolfowitz
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on 1,000,000 socks for Paul Wolfowitz, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- It 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. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
- It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, 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. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, 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 from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Hi PointedToTheMoon,
I can see that at some point you attempted to move the now deleted article 1,000,000 socks for Paul Wolfowitz into the "Drafts" "Namespace".
The Drafts namespace is one of the places where potential new Wikipedia articles can be worked on and assessed for eligibility to be moved into what is called in Wikipedia jargon "mainspace" or "aticlespace" - Wikipedia's encyclopedia articles.
I'm happy to assist you with re-creating Draft:1,000,000 socks for Paul Wolfowitz.
Please do note this: I do not think 1,000,000 socks for Paul Wolfowitz meets the criteria for inclusion as a Wikipedia "article".
- In relation to Paul Wolfowitz, Wikipedia is not a place to relate small incidents, especially those related to living persons
- The purported charitable organisation "1,000,000 socks for Paul Wolfowitz" does appear to me to fail a number of tests for "notability" including specifically the test for organisations, the test for internet content, and more broadly the general notability guideline.

In accordance with our policy that Articles for Creation is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion.
