Proposed deletion of SecondMarket
[edit]
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article SecondMarket, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:
- Written like an advertisement, multiple parts seem to be copied straight from the companies website. Don't think the company is notable enough for an article.
All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Speedy deletion of SecondMarket, Inc.
[edit]
A tag has been placed on SecondMarket, Inc. requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. 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 as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — 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 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.
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.

SecondMarket
[edit]Hi - as you can see, your contributions are being largely unwound. Wikipedia is not a means of advertising your company's services. Although it is tempting to want to include links to your website it is not an appropriate venue. I have worked on a number of the pages you have edited and the content on the page is there for the benefit of the reader not for the benefit of the subjects. Your edits are clear examples of self promotion. Although I know the space very well personally, I spent some time looking for third party references to SecondMarket and found a limited number of mentions of the company altogether but almost nothing with respect to the subjects you edited. Therefore it appeared clearly worthy of reversion. Hope that makes sense |► ϋrbanяenewaℓ • TALK ◄| 21:56, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
