1. editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);

   and you must always:

4. avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

Deletions

Mike, this isn't about how respected and high-profile Mr Panayotis is or isn't within his industry.

My reason for deleting the article on Mr Panayotis was "apparent copyvio". This means that the article was so unlike Wikipedia's recommended style, I concluded that it had been copied in bulk from some pre-made external source. This is not acceptable; it is a violation of copyright. If we should have an article on Mr Panayotis, then surely we should have a proper article on him.

As for your statement that "IF you actually went through the service, you would realise that there are millions (MILLIONS) of commercially-orientated sites and billions, if not trillions, of commercially-driven information"... well, let's see. I think you're saying that Wikipedia has millions of commercially-oriented articles? Firstly, you're exaggerating wildly; English Wikipedia is the largest of all the Wikipedias, and we have less than 2.5 million articles. I'll grant that we do have many articles about commercial products, of course, but those articles are not promotional material. Or, at least, they're not supposed to be promotional material; we do our best to remove such material when we see it.

(Perhaps you are thinking of the many websites which, although not affiliated with the Wikimedia Foundation, use our free MediaWiki software; many of those sites are indeed commercial in nature.)

You are welcome to create a new article about Mr Panayotis, but do it properly. Feel free to ask for help. DS (talk) 13:30, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

By "help", I mean "advice". A suggestion - go to a subpage of your userspace, here, and instead of writing an article an article about Mr Panayotis... start by putting in the facts. Don't worry about paragraphs, don't worry about sentences... just the raw information. "Georges Panayotis... French/Greek... notable in hotel business... birthdate, birthplace... notable because (why?)..." - stuff like that. Don't be afraid to ask for opinions from more established contributors; we're always willing to help improve crude articles. DS (talk) 13:30, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Georges Panayotis requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. TN‑X-Man 13:42, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Mike, I told you what to do, and you didn't do it. The article is now in your userspace; I suggest you ask some other editors to help you make it good. Okay? DS (talk) 19:54, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Assessment

Okay, that's a lot better. I made some small changes to better comply with the accepted style, but this is fine. DS (talk) 13:40, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
