Hey there, Dmoore2345! I'm glad you decided to register a new account here on Wikipedia. We're always looking for new editors to help improve the project, because believe me, there's always something to be done! Wikipedia often seems very large to newcomers (it did to me, at least), so I've put together this little guide to help you get started. I hope this helps, and as always, happy editing!

Re: Why was my article deleted?
[edit]You're not in trouble for asking - actually, I'd much rather you do that instead of repeatedly recreating the article like most people do, because that WILL get people blocked. It was deleted under Criteria for Speedy Deletion A7, because there was no assertion that it was notable enough to be included in an encyclopedia. Subjects have to establish that they are notable according to at least one of our established guidelines, or the general one that applies to all subjects. This is to prevent people from making articles about their cat, and so forth, mainly, but does apply to other things as you've seen. Since you do have a conflict of interest with this particular company, it may be best for you to simply request an article be created for it; this allows other independent editors to judge the notability of your company and write a more neutral entry. Thanks for your help, all the same, and thanks very much again for asking for help - it gets irritating having to delete the same thing over and over. If you need help, feel free to let me know, or ask at the help desk. Welcome to Wikipedia! Hersfold (t/a/c) 04:26, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
