Conflict of interest noticeboard
- Feel free to comment at this discussion. I don't think you're a bad editor, but I'm also not sure you quite understand how Wikipedia works. THE AMERICAN METROSEXUAL 20:41, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
- I'm still learning... I do understand the COI policy however, both entries are relevant and neutrally written. The latter, Atlanta Marine was created as a "seed" in order to introduce another individual to Wikipedia and Wiki editing... Is this still inappropriate? If so, I am happy to delete it.

Speedy deletion nomination of Atlanta Marine
A tag has been placed on Atlanta Marine 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.
