[edit]Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. Blythwood (talk) 10:47, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
Hi Blythwood, the Immofinanz article is nothing more than the translated german article. I don't think that this does not match the Wikipedia criteria.Thesteiner (talk) 11:32, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
- Ah, I see this now - the German language article is somewhat promotional in tone, hence my concern. (I wrote most of this English-language article.) Thanks for letting me know and expanding the article - sorry about the automated messages. A few things, just to explain:
- The text that existed already included citations to reliable sources and information on topics not in your translated text, like the CA Immo takeover bid. So that could be added to, but shouldn’t be removed. I will put it back.
- As I said earlier, if you have any kind of connection to this company, like that they are paying you to write this article for SEO or marketing content purposes, that you are an employee or contractor for the company in any capacity or have a financial connection to it, you must disclose this immediately before making any more edits. Feel free to ask questions if this is something you want to discuss or if you are having trouble doing this, privately if necessary by email is fine.
- I’m not sure that the Immoeast company is notable enough for its own separate article, which is why someone else seems to have flagged if for possible deletion below. Are there any reliable sources discussing it in detail not connected with Immofinanz, like books, news articles or journal citations? Those links are to guides on what Wikipedia will accept. If you need help adding them I can do this.
- All the best, let me know if you need any help. Blythwood (talk) 15:58, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
Hi Blythwood, yup, that's because I didn't 1:1 translate them but took a copy of an old one and translated that one. I will include the missing stuff soon. And yes, the Immoeast is even less than poor and since those companies are merged anyway, I guess I will add Immoeast, Immowest and Immoaustria as sections in the Immofinanz article.

Speedy deletion nomination of Immoeast
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Immoeast 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 credibly 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 "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. McGeddon (talk) 11:57, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
