A tag has been placed on Easy tyre and autocentres requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, 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. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about 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 "Click here to 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. 220 of Borg 15:07, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Just to be clear, this doesn't mean I've got anything against Easy Tyre or what it does ... it just doesn't meet the general levels of inclusion for an encyclopedia. There are a huge amount of garages all over the country that can do tyres, and it's impractical to write good encyclopaedic articles about all of them. You probably need to be at an international level such as Kwik Fit. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 13:31, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Nigel Cabourn, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://modediplomatique.tumblr.com/post/38659175397/cabourn.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Easy tyre and autocentres, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Stamford and Oldbury. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
