If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on INVEST Financial Corporation, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Wordpressstar (talk) 17:50, 17 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

New Help Request[edit]

How do I upload a company logo to an article I am currently working on...I am not considered a confirmed account. I am new to creating articles on wikipedia, so I am not sure if I need to submit my article and then add pictures or if I can just write up my article and add pictures at the same time and then submit it for review. Please advise.

Hi there! Just continue working on the article, after 4 days and 10 edits you'll be able to upload images. Please take a look at Wikipedia:LOGO though, as there are some requirements when it comes to how and where logos are used on Wikipedia. Please let me know if you have any further questions! :) Bjelleklang - talk 14:20, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reply to {{Help me}} request: First I recommend reading this essay: WP:Logo Copyright/Trademark. This will help you understand if the logo is appropriate for upload to Wikipedia. If you feel that it is appropriate, you can upload the image using the Upload file button in the toolbox on the left side of the screen. You can submit your article any time with or without images, and you can add/remove images any time that it's necessary. Please feel free to reply here if you have further questions, and I will reply here. I will follow this page for a few days in case you need more help. —    Bill W.    (Talk)  (Contrib)  — 14:23, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If I click the green submit for review button, does that automatically put it on the wikipedia website for everyone to reveiw? I do not want a speedy deletion, I just want it saved so I won't lose any work, while I continue to make edits.

Yes, it does, but you don't have to submit for review, just use the ordinary Save Page button. Pinkbeast (talk) 16:17, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Bear in mind, though, that anything anywhere on Wikipedia can be deleted if it is "unambiguously advertising or promotion", without redeeming characteristics. Pinkbeast (talk) 16:18, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

How do I appeal a speedy deletion after I have made appropriate edits?

Orphaned non-free image File:INVEST Financial Corporation Logo.jpg[edit]

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:INVEST Financial Corporation Logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 15:51, 17 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on File:Invest Financial Corporation Logo.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
