Biographical pages
[edit]Hello! You should read WP:BIO in order to see the criteria for creating biographical articles relating to living people. Your articles may be considered for deletion if they don't meet the guidelines set out on the page. You may also want to look at WP:Vanity in relation to your own article. Userpages can be created in order to give some biographical information that may be useful to other WP editors. They shouldn't be created in order to promote yourself or treated as a personal webpage - not that I am suggesting that your article about yourself does that. WP:NOT has more information about what should and shouldn't be included on WP. Regards, (aeropagitica) 18:03, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Conservative Friends of Gibraltar
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
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 Conservative Friends of Gibraltar, 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, group, product, service, person, or point of view 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 deleted 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.
