A tag has been placed on The Emotional Intelligence Quick Book, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that 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 don't count as content. 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.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Your query at the Help Desk
[edit]Just dropping a note to say that you have received more responses to your question at the Help Desk. Please read them before recreating your article. Cheers, Hermione1980 20:00, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
- Sigh... as you didn't read the advice, your article has been forcibly moved to User:Talentsmart2/The Emotional Intelligence Quick Book for you to work on until it's ready. Please don't move it back into the main encyclopaedia until it's ready, otherwise it risks being zapped quickly once again. BencherliteTalk 20:18, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
Welcome!
Hello, Talentsmart2, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ~~~~, which will automatically produce your name and the date.
If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome!
Read this - important
[edit]You will write a much better article if you look at Wikipedia:Notability (books) and try to follow it. If you can't, it might well be because the book isn't notable after all and so doesn't merit an article on Wikipedia. BencherliteTalk 20:56, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the message. I think if you chop out everything but the first para and the information box it's probably OK as a stub. – ukexpat (talk) 19:48, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
I noticed that on http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/The_Five_Dysfunctions_of_a_Team that they have a quote from the publisher on the article. I was just wondering what the difference is for mine?--66.253.114.35 (talk) 20:16, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
- I moved it to The Emotional Intelligence Quick Book - but of course no guarantee that it will not be nominated for deletion again. I will take a look at the other article but generally the fact that other stuff exists is not relevant to discussion of a particular article. – ukexpat (talk) 20:40, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

UNDISCLOSED conflict of interest
[edit]
If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article The Emotional Intelligence Quick Book, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should 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;
- participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
- linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam); and,
- avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for businesses. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Thank you. --Orange Mike | Talk 22:36, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
Please do not add advertising or inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did in The Emotional Intelligence Quick Book. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. --Orange Mike | Talk 22:36, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
This kind of activity is considered spamming and forbidden by policies, and also violates our username policy.
However, if you feel that there has been a mistake in your blocking, please appeal this block by adding the text{{unblock|Your reason here}} below or email the administrator who blocked you. Your reason should include your response to this issue and a new username you wish to adopt that does not violate our username policy (specifically, understand that accounts are for individuals, not companies or groups, and that your username should reflect this). Please check that your new username has not already been taken by checking this list. --Orange Mike | Talk 22:36, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
Spam in User:Talentsmart3/sandbox
[edit]
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on User:Talentsmart3/sandbox, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because User:Talentsmart3/sandbox is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting User:Talentsmart3/sandbox, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Fair use rationale for File:Emotional Intelligence Quick Book cover image.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Emotional Intelligence Quick Book cover image.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Radiant chains (talk) 06:46, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
File source problem with File:TalentSmart Logo.gif
[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:TalentSmart Logo.gif. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 22:54, 21 May 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. –Drilnoth (T • C • L) 22:54, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
