[edit] Confectionery

The entire category:confectionery has been reorganized so that brand name products are in category:brand name confectionery and its subcategories. The top-level category is now only for articles about generic kinds of confectionery. Make sense now? Dr.frog 17:27, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] River Washburn

Hi CiaranG, I'm a little busy at the moment, but I will definitely keep a watch on the page and contribute when I have some spare time.DevAnubis 12:50, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dam Builders

Hi CiaranG. Glad I could help with the citation formatting, and thanks for helping to expand British industrial narrow gauge railways. The best reference I've found for Reservoir Construction railways is a series of books called "The Dam Builders in the Age of Steam" published by the Plateway Press. I only have volume 5 of the series ("From Durham's Dales to the Border") all written by Harold Bowtell. They seem to be fairly limited runs, so are hard to find. If you can, get hold of copies of the rest in the series. I suspect these are the most thorough and scholarly references on the subject. Apart from that its finding gems on the web like the Bill Bevan thesis. Good luck, Gwernol 23:37, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blue Prism

Hello, CiaranG, and welcome to Wikipedia. An article you recently created, Blue Prism, has been tagged for speedy deletion because its content is clearly written to promote a company, product, or service. This article may have been deleted by the time you see this message. Please keep in mind that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an advertising service. Thank you. - Tiswas(t/c) 11:26, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Rudeness does not come into it. It is because I read the article that I tagged it {{db-spam}}. There is nothing in the article that suggests, or claims, notability, other than references in passing. - Tiswas(t/c) 11:41, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
There are not, as far as I know, any criteria for what constitutes blatant advertising. As such, I have made a judgement call. By placing the {{hangon}} tag, the article will now not be summarily deleted by a passing admin. However, the requirement for displaying notability still stands. - Tiswas(t/c) 11:53, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
Which criterion for notability does the article / company satisfy? Insofar as advertising the company, if there is no notability, all that remains is promotion. - Tiswas(t/c) 12:15, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
I've removed the speedy tag, but not replaced with an {{AfD}} yet - I'm sure that, if there is substantial and worthwhile coverage of the company, you will include it in the article. - Tiswas(t/c) 12:28, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Prod notice

[edit] Blue Prism

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Blue Prism, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Blue Prism. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

[edit] RE: Links

Thank you for your recent comments. I feel that the links I have added are relevant, however if you disagree please feel free to remove them. I don't look at this as advertising merely adding a link to another relevent source of information. My site is not yet complete and I would be happy to hear your suggests on content you'd like to see on it.

Kind regards,
