Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Ipo village, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

IPO Village

Hi, thanks for message, you can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~~~~. Several problems

  • The editor who tagged for deletion and I both though that it was promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic.
  • linking to IPO Village in the main text is spammy. There shouldn't be any url links other than in the references and external links
  • Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include: provides crowd funding with NASDAQ initial offerings at pre-IPO rates... allows investors to gain returns with companies that have created products or strategies that have proven successful enough to garner investments... boutique... Both have an extensive background in investment banking... Our deal flow is certainly admired throughout the industry... dynamic new offerings... free-trading offering liquidity and a clear exit strategy. There is no investor prejudice involved; everyone is treated equally. Crowd funding with IPO Village levels the playing field. No more IPOs exclusive to the 1%. We have campaigns running on Google Search, Google Plus, Facebook and LinkedIn. Now, because of the evolution of social media and crowd funding, IPO investments at IPO Village are available to the 99%... is unique... Previously, only a select 1% of the population were qualified to invest monies in retail companies... unique... Now, equity based IPO returns allow all investors to receive a return on their investment
  • There was virtually nothing about the company (employees, profits, turnover), it was all about what they are trying to sell.

I deleted it again, asked on its talk p.


" (The importance is that you have nothing on Wikipedia about IPO crowdfunding at all. It's imperitive to have it in an encyclopedia. This is the second edition and has included in it references, and sources that are not spammy. It is not only talking about IPO Village. The importance is inherent wihting the text. The JOBS Act created a venue for all people to invest. IPO Village has this platform as well. I heartily contest this. Your justification has no foundation. The page was created to explain what IPO's are in relation to crowdfunding, IPO Village was the context, Crowdfunding the background.) "

I replied there:

The article was about the company. There is nothing to indicate the company was important. The only link was to its sponsor's web site. As the article said, the firm is still legally unable to release any specific information. If it should eventually become important to be written about based on more than its press releases, there might be a basis for an article, but see our policies on WP:Conflict of interest and WP:Reliable sources. If it becomes notable, someone else will know it and write the article. Since this cannot conceivably happen until December 2012 at the earliest, I have blocked re-creation of the article for now, but unless you have good sources, do not even try, for it will be deleted.

As for the general topic, this method of funding may become important, but as the article itself says, nobody is using it in public because the regulations have not yet been issued. When there are article about it providing substantial coverage from 3rd party independent published reliable sources, print or online, but not blogs or press releases, or material derived from press releases. , then there can be an article. The article would normally not mention any particular company, and could not be based on a particular company's press releases. As you are involved in that line of business, you would probably know enough to write it once the references appeared, if you can do it in a neutral manner, but you ought to learn about Wikipedia before that. See our general guide, and our policies on WP:Conflict of interest and WP:Reliable sources. DGG ( talk ) 02:17, 1 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Seeing what you previously asked the admin who deleted it the first time, I will add to his comment above that I agree with it completely. I will also add that the other article you mention has good references, and does not engage in the promotional effort to explain why the overall subject is important, nor does it advertise the future services of the firm.

Please do not use Wikipedia to promote businesses. Wikipedia is not the "Yellow Pages". If you want to list a company for potential customers to find, please consider alternative outlets. Thank you. DGG ( talk ) 04:11, 1 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If you are absolutely determined to start an article, please use the articles for creation program. However, as mentioned, you need to establish notability and a neutral point of view. If you need additional help, contact DGG, Jimfbleak or me. SwisterTwister talk 17:09, 1 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
