Please do not add commercial links or links to your own private websites to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. --chris.lawson 02:07, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding commercial or personal-website links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming, and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising. Thanks. --chris.lawson 04:24, 27 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Logo Large.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Logo Large.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 02:45, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability of New Flight Charters

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on New Flight Charters, by Russavia (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because New Flight Charters seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting New Flight Charters, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 21:09, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of New Flight Charters

New Flight Charters, an article you created, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that New Flight Charters satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/New Flight Charters and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of New Flight Charters during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Russavia 22:20, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

New Flight Charters

Three reasons were raised during the AFD:

Promotional material. Blatant violations can go under criterion G11 for speedy deletion.
Conflict of interest issues. As much as possible, a company or person should not write an article about themselves.
Notability. There were no secondary sources in the article, and three editors searched for sources but could only find one (a review). Which means the subject may not have the sufficient notability needed to have an article.

Given the circumstances, the best thing to do is to look for non-trivial secondary sources independent of the company first. If you are unsuccessful, then the company is not suitable for inclusion at Wikipedia. Sr13 is almost Singu larity 19:23, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
