Speedy deletion nomination of Lake of Stars
[edit]You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.
Thank you.
A tag has been placed on Lake of Stars, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising that 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 general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.
If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}}
on the top of Lake of Stars and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 16:38, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

I don't know what led User:Blanchardb to assert that the article was nothing but spam: It is a bit promotional, but it can clearly be improved. I recommend that you join a WikiProject such as WikiProject Africa, where you can connect with people who should be able to help you. Happy editing! — Sebastian 19:52, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
