Please, no spam[edit]

Please do not add commercial links or links to your own private websites to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia. If you feel the link should be added to the article please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thanks.

CSD[edit]

Hi, To answer your question about why I've tagged articles initially submitted by you for deletion even though they follow the format of other Wikipedia articles about game companies: The criteria is WP:CORP and as far as I can tell your articles do not meet that criteria. If you disagree you can put a hangon tag on the article and explain on the article's talk page why it does meet the WP:CORP criteria. In the first entry above ("Welcome") there are a lot of good links that explain what does and does not constitute a good article. There may indeed be many other game company articles that shouldn't be in Wikipedia, at least in their current form. If I see them, I'll tag them too. You're welcome to do so as well. If I'm mistaken about the companies I've tagged as not meeting WP:CORP or not meeting the notability requirement, then simply tag the article with the hangon tag, explain why on the Talk page of the article and an administrator will review it and decide. If you need help doing that, let me know on my talk page and I'm happy to help. If I'm wrong, I'll be happy to take the tag off and help make the article a better article.
