Notability of Space Coast College[edit]

A tag has been placed on Space Coast College, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Malc82 07:46, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hangon[edit]

You have to type it with the brackets. Malc82 08:31, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Correction. You have to give your hangon-explanation on the article's "discussion"-page. It is still important to do the hangon-tagging correctly, because otherwise it won't show up as a disputed csd. Thanks. Malc82 08:34, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Since you seem to be the founder of the Academy and College [1] you should read our guideline on conflict of interest. I found exactly 5 google hits for "Space Coast Academy" and you authored all of them. It thus is very clear that the institution fails our notability guideline. Malc82 08:58, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thats true, I am one of the founders but I didn't see where a founder of an organization cannot post information about it as long as the information can be validated, like you've said. The Florida Department of State at: www.SunBiz.com can vaildate the existance of this new school. Although I don't totally understand, I do respect your rules, so please go ahead and delete both articles referring to Space Coast College and Space Coast Academy.

Thanks

WP:COI discourages founders and other COI-editors to write about their institutions, but the deletion is because it fails our notability guideline. Conflict of interest is the main reason for people to start articles/advertisements for non-notable companies, which isn't what Wikipedia is for. Thus, COI is a major factor in deciding if an article should be deleted. Thanks for your kind reply. Malc82 09:18, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Now that I've read WP:COI, I totally understand. Thank you for pointing it out to me. User:MsLadyExecutive

Signature[edit]

Hey, so just to let you know, you don't have to type out your signature at the end - rather, just add four tildes - ~~~~. They'll give you a sig with a time stamp. You can edit this sig in "my preferences" - found in the top right corner of the page. I've edited mine, so when I do four tildes, it looks like this danielfolsom 20:21, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
