Speedy deletion nomination of Missouri Star Quilt Company

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 Missouri Star Quilt Company, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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.

Welcome back

I'm sorry your early Wiki-experience was a bust. The Wikipedia tea room is a good place for new editors to go to get help and a good welcome.

By the way, the "ping" only works if you put a "|" after the word ping AND if you "sign" your comment by adding "davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 19:42, 28 November 2015 (UTC)" to the end of it. I fixed up your comment on the Village Pump and added a second "ping" along with my signature just to make sure the message was delivered.

Also, you put your reply ABOVE some existing messages in a way that implied that those people were replying to you, when of course they weren't. I shifted your message down a few lines so the flow of the conversation is clear again.

Welcome back. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 19:42, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
