The article Southeastern Regional Lipid Conference (SERLC) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- no evidence of notability
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. The
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion. —

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 Southeastern Regional Lipid Conference (SERLC), 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 an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact
one of these administrators to request that the administrator
userfy the page or email a copy to you.

Welcome to Wikipedia. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things
you have written about in the article
Southeastern Regional Lipid Conference, you may have a
conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's
neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
- editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
- participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
- linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. -- Orange Mike | Talk 21:56, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
I noticed your edit at Wikipedia:Expert retention. I suspect that you should have put your comments on the talk page (aka discussion page). We only sign (four tildes) text that is a comment on a talk page. I'm just mentioning that while I'm here (it doesn't concern me, and someone will remove it if they don't like it). The reason I'm posting is to express sympathy with your experience here, since I can see from the above that you have been beaten up. Please be aware that Wikipedia is under 24-hour attack from POV pushers, spammers and cranks who try to insert text promoting their favorite thing. Unfortunately that means the responses have to be rather mechanical: if text has no suitable sources, someone will probably remove it. If you ever need advice, feel free to contact me at my talk page (see my signature after this comment). I may not be much help, but I can possibly point you to some appropriate place.
Finally, the point of this message is to say that Wiki Projects are a good way to get help from experienced editors with an interest in a particular field. Unfortunately, there are not many such active editors in specialized fields, so assistance may take a long time. At any rate, you mentioned articles such as Lipidomics and Cell signaling. At each article, visit the talk page (click the "discussion" tab at the top), and view the boxes at the top of the talk page which announce relevant projects. The box will have a link to the project page. At that page, go to the talk page. If there is recent activity (check the dates on the messages at the bottom), there is a chance you may get a response if you request assistance. At the top of the talk page, click "new section" (or it may be "add topic" depending on your skin?). In your text, mention that you have a draft article at User:Ebieberich/sandbox and you would like help because it was deleted when you created the article.
