The first experience for new users to the English Wikipedia

I once created an article on Big Johnson, it got deleted and replaced with a new article with the exact same title. I then have created articles for ten figure companies such as Triumph Group, Inc. and CDI Corporation, both of which have flourished despite being recommended for speedy deletion. I have also created an article for Salary.com, which got speedily deleted without discussion. In the latter case, I think that Salary.com is a major player in the compensation and human resource management solutions field, and that instead of speedily deleting the article, the article should have at least gone to Articles for deletion for seven days of discussion. While I agree with the deletion of local organizations, the articles that I have mentioned in this post seem to be quite notable indeed. It is kind of discouraging for an article to be deleted, especially after having put so much work into it.
