Speedy deletion nomination of User:Corry van buren

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 User:Corry van buren, 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 "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. 331dot (talk) 16:44, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (your reason here) --Corry van buren (talk) 16:49, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello - this is my first page - is there something I need to do to prevent deletion? Thanks!

Please review the userpage policy for a guide as to what can go on your userpage; specifically, you cannot use your userpage for promotional purposes(or create any page to do so for that matter). I would suggest reviewing some of the links posted at the top of this page for information on how to contribute to Wikipedia. 331dot (talk) 16:54, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks - removed anything that might seem promotional.
