[edit] Oh dear
You seem to have a bit of a problem here. Of the three articles you've contributed, one has been deleted and the other two are headed that way. I'd like to let you know why this has happened, and perhaps help you to contribute in other areas where you have knowledge to impart.
- Sanctified Churches of Deliverance Full Gospel, Inc., was deleted under the criteria for speedy deletion category G11 (a blatant advertisement) and G12 (content copied from another website with no assertion of permission). Very few people will actually release content from their websites under GFDL since it means it can be "edited mercilessly" and then redistributed in the edited form. Even if these problems were solved we have the issue of the inclusion criteria to overcome, and then the generic problems which affect all three articles, as below.
- Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, a tertiary source. All content must be verifiable from reliable sources independent of the subject. Moreover, we must adhere to the neutral point of view, and to verify that we usually require that the subject has been the primary focus of multiple non-trivial coverage in reliable secondary sources independent of the subject. This is in our biography guideline.
- Even if there were sources and the subjects met the inclusion guidelines, we have a strong guideline against writing about yourself or your enterprises or subjects with which you are closely associated. This is considered vanity and is problematic mainly because it is almost impossible to be truly neutral about a subject with which you have a close association.
I hope this helps to explain the problems, and that you can find some other articles where you can contribute. Guy 08:53, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
