The user page guidelines have additional information on what is and what is not considered acceptable content. Please use your user sandbox or the draft article space to practice editing or to create new articles. Thank you. Acroterion (talk) 21:04, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your input. I am confused about this message, as I used the sandbox to create my first article. I did not mean to add it to my user page. Can you direct me on how to fix this issue? 1stMagazine (talk) 23:27, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It wasn't a sandbox, it was your userpage. It was also promotional,which is not allowed, and appears to have been copied in from somewhere else, which is not acceptable. Acroterion (talk) 00:27, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on your user page, User:1stMagazine/sandbox, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

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 "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 deleted 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, then please contact the deleting administrator.
