From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A tag has been placed on Consumer health coalition, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of Consumer health coalition 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 help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. ViperSnake151 17:32, 24 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Requested username:

Decline reason:

Wikipedia:Username policy requires you to choose a username that designates yourself as an individual. "pittsburghchc" still implies that you're editing on behalf of an organisation, namely a branch of the "Consumer health coalition" in Pittsburgh. Please choose another username. --  Netsnipe   ►  14:51, 25 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also note that copying and pasting directly from your organization's website into any Wikipedia article is a breach of Wikipedia:Copyrights unless there is a disclaimer on your website releasing its contents into the public domain. Regardless, you will be required to write all articles from a 3rd person neutral point of view and cite third party sources that assert your organization's notability. We're an encyclopedia, not a soapbox for promoting non-profit organizations. Before we unblock you, please take the time to read Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) and Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and then provide an assurance that you will be comply with these two policies. Thanks. --  Netsnipe   ►  14:58, 25 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]


I have read the two policies and will comply with them and use third party sources to cite.

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Consumer Health Coalition, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.volunteersolutions.org/pittsburgh/org/2644854.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 20:33, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
