Your article Journal of Anti Aging has been deleted as it is clearly promotion for an unnotable online journal (with only one issue). DJ Clayworth (talk) 20:53, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]



Dear DJ Clayworth: clearly it is a new journal, thus it is only the begining, so as you must know there is always initially only one issue, can you simply un-delete it? Moreover can you explain what do you mean by "unnotable"? ps: if you refer to notability, then this article is represented as "significant coverage". Hope this answers your queries, if there is anything else which is needed, please let me know on this very same user talk page. Many thanks wwwzzzooo

Hi Wwwzzzooo. Because Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, it contains articles only about things that are already relatively well-known. If this were not the case it would be crowded with articles about unimportant things. Wikipedia therefore sets standards on how well-known something must be before it gets an article. These standards are set out at Wikipedia:Notability, and various pages linked to from there, in this case Wikipedia:Notability (web). A website, for example, must have either significant independent media coverage or have won a major well-known award. If your journal has any of these then please let us know, but that is very unlikely for the first edition of an online journal. What I would suggest is waiting until your journal is well-known enough to satisfy these criteria.

Please also note that it is not permitted to write about any subject or organisation which you represent. DJ Clayworth (talk) 13:16, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
