From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The article ThumMusic System has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which 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. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

- The whole thing was not written as a description of a notable product ("notable" per WP:N, having been recognized as such by reliable independent sources), but as a "here's a problem, and here's how my product is best at solving it" article. Just deleting the links to the website doesn't keep it from being advertising. This is why it's not a good idea to write about your own product or company; see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. What seems to you like neutral description seems to other people like promotion. NawlinWiki (talk) 03:30, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
