Speedy deletion nomination of Wavelength Capital Management

A tag has been placed on Wavelength Capital Management requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
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.

Article advice
[edit]Hello Jack! Note that is it against policy to remove the Big Red Tag from an article that you have created. You're supposed to use the Blue "Contest" button. But that's not why I'm here. I see that you're new and probably are not familiar with all of our guidelines and inclusion standards. In short, for an article, any article, to be allowed it must be "notable", which is a term-of-art used here to mean: "has been written about by several other sources unrelated to the subject". No article is complete on day 1, but if you want to give it a fighting chance, there are two things you can do. First: don't worry about fleshing out the company history and all that. The first thing it needs is to be shown to be "notable" by adding in references to third-party discussions about the company: newspaper, trade magazines, tv news pieces specifically about the company, and so on. Helpful links here are the guideline for inclusion spelled out, and the kind of sources we need to support notability.
The second thing you can do is to start the article as a draft in an area specially made for this purpose. As a draft, the inclusion standards are greatly reduced: as long as it is not a copyright violation (thanks for fixing that), or defames or attacks someone (which this does not), then it can remain in draft state for a long time as long as you keep working on it. An added benefit is that as a draft, you can periodically have it reviewed, and if it does not meet inclusion requirements, the reviewer will let you know what it needs (and still not delete it). In this case, I think that's the better approach. If it takes a couple of days or a couple of months, you can work on it at your leisure. To start this as a draft, click this link and edit as normal: Draft:Wavelength Capital Management
I hope this helps! CrowCaw 21:48, 29 April 2015 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
[edit]Hello, Jackgilligan. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 04:38, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
