List of twin towns and sister cities in the Republic of Ireland

You use a wikipedia mirror as a source for Bressuire but the source you added is not a reliable one as it is WP:CIRCULAR, so you need to find something better before readding. However we do need editors to add more towns but only with good reliable sources. See: Identifying and using independent sources. Thanks ww2censor (talk) 13:20, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Brenfarrell/sandbox

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 User:Brenfarrell/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 seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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.

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Brenfarrell. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Spencer^T•C 16:53, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please note the first bullet point in particular: avoid editing or creating articles about ... your company, organization or competitors. Best, Spencer^T•C 16:54, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Brenfarrell/sandbox

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 User:Brenfarrell/sandbox, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
It contains a gallery in the userspace which consists chiefly of fair use or non-free images. (See section U3 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot allow non-free and copyrighted images to be used on user pages, and user pages containing galleries of such images may be eligible for speedy deletion.
It appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, and/or activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals. Please note that Wikipedia is not a free Web hosting service. (See section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion.)

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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

COI query

Hi, may I ask what, if anything, is your relationship with British Seniors Funeral Costs Report, British Seniors Insurance Agency, Neilson Financial Services, or associated entities? I note that a formal COI query was posted above a few months ago (whether in relation to these products and organisations, or something else, I don't know), but you don't seem to have responded to it. Please do so now. Thank you, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:51, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thanks for reviewing the article. I am an employee of Neilson Financial Services, who own British Seniors. I'm attempting to create a page for the research we have carried out on Funeral Costs in the U.K. and not so much our own company. We noticed that Sunlife already have the same live on their page (SunLife#Cost of Dying report) so we are trying to replicate with stats. from our own work.

Regarding the COI from a few months ago, I had responded to that editor with the same declaration on their talk page.

Should I resubmit the article using the below template?

{{Connected contributor|User1=Brenfarrell |U1-declared=yes| U1-otherlinks=(Optional) Insert relevant affiliations, disclosures, article drafts or diffs showing COI contributions.}} Brenfarrell (talk) 09:17, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Deb (talk) 09:15, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
