Speedy deletion of Protage

A tag has been placed on Protage, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article 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 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. tgies (talk) 12:02, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Do not remove speedy tags

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. --Onorem ♠Dil 12:14, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Note on potential conflict of interest

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam); and,
avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for businesses. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Thank you. --Onorem ♠Dil 12:14, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

November 2008

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. Onorem ♠Dil 13:16, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. Continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia without resolving the problem that the template refers to may be considered vandalism. Further edits of this type may result in your being blocked from editing. Adding some reliable third party sources that explain what makes this project notable would help. Removing valid tags without explanation doesn't help anything. Onorem ♠Dil 13:27, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
If you again remove maintenance templates from Wikipedia articles without resolving the problem that the template refers to, you will be blocked from editing.

The page is on my watchlist. Since you seem to be unwilling to communicate, I will be taking the article to articles for deletion within the next day or two if you do not provide sources that verify this project's notability. I'm not going to continue to edit war over tags with you. --Onorem ♠Dil 13:34, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Repost of Intelligent Agent Based Digital Preservation

A tag has been placed on Intelligent Agent Based Digital Preservation requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, because it appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion. If you can indicate how it is different from the previously posted material, place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article and put a note on the page's discussion page saying why this article should stay. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please use deletion review instead of continuing to recreate the page. Thank you. ←Signed:→Mr. E.

Your user name

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and I am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy for the following reason: it blatantly advertises the name of a company (Protage) and the surname "agent" associates it as a role account or one to be used as a vehicle of advertisement with a potential conflict of interest. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?

I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.

You have several options freely available to you:

If you can relieve my concern through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
If the two of us can't agree here, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
You can keep your contributions history under a new username. Visit Wikipedia:Changing username and follow the guidelines there.

Thank you. ←Signed:→Mr. E. Sánchez ^{Get to know me!} / _{Talk to me!}←at≈:→ 10:27, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm copying the thread from the article's talk page below because that page is subject to deletion and I've added responses. —Largo Plazo (talk) 16:55, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article is a significantly modified version of the article "Intelligent Agent Based Digital Preservation", which has been deleted, based on the comments from the editors, Oscarthecat, Mr. E. Sánchez, and Kralizec!.Protageagent (talk) 15:12, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Be that as it may, what I see is an article that was written to make a case for the use of a tool with which the article's author, according to his user name, is associated. Hence, it's an advertisement. —Largo Plazo (talk) 15:27, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article is to introduce an innovative technology for long-term digital preservation, i.e., Intelligent Agent Based Digital Preservation, as well as the corresponding research project, i.e., PROTAGE, which is funded by the European Union. In this article, lots of internal links, external links, and references have been provided. Meanwhile, quite a few articles about similar digital preservation projects have been published on the Wikipedia. We want to know why this article and its other versions were decided to be deleted again and again? Did you read the content of the article? If not, please do read the content first. If yes, I hope you would give me specific suggestions to rewrite the article.Protageagent (talk) 15:24, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is expressly not for the purpose of introducing, let alone promoting, anything. Articles are to be about topics that have already achieved notability, not for the purpose of acquiring note that doesn't already exist. And of course I read the article. How else would I have reached a decision to request deletion? As for suggestions: my suggestion is don't write the article. If the software achieves notability, someone will likely write an objective third-party article about it. —Largo Plazo (talk) 15:27, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, this article is not to advertise a tool. It is to introduce an "innovative technology for long-term digital preservation" as well as its corresponding "research" project funded by the European Seventh Framework Programme. Secondly, as I have mentioned, "quite a few articles about similar digital preservation projects, which were also funded by the Fifth/Sixth/Seventh Framework Programme, have been published on the Wikipedia". Given this situation, I do not think my article should be deleted.Protageagent (talk) 16:43, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have already responded to most of those points. As for "introduce" versus "advertise": "tomayto"/"tomahto"; the notability constraint applies, along with the fact that you are holding yourself out to be involved in the topic about which you're writing. As for other articles about digital processing: (a) I didn't request deletion because your article is about digital preservation and I have some strange idea that articles about digital preservation don't belong on Wikipedia, and (b) either they don't meet criteria for deletion as your article does, in which case it doesn't help to invoke them, or they do meeting such criteria, in which case the result is that they too are subject to deletion, not that your article isn't. —Largo Plazo (talk) 16:48, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In my article, I have mentioned the articles of several similar projects (see the "See Also" section). I do not think my article is more like an advertisement than those articles. If you want, you can compare my article with the others. In this situation, I want to know that 1) why can they be accepted by Wikipedia? 2) If you think they should also be deleted, why not delete them as soon as they were created? Just like you delete my article.Protageagent (talk) 22:13, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are under the misunderstanding that I am The Person Who Reviews All New Wikipedia Articles—as though there could be such a person. I have no idea what these other articles are. I have never seen them. I'm an ordinary user like you, and I'm one of the many users who patrol new articles, applying Wikipedia's policies and guidelines as we understand them. —Largo Plazo (talk) 23:16, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
