Here are a few key questions:

Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
Do you understand conflict of interest?
Do you understand that to be considered for an encyclopedia article, the subject must be notable?

You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product that you have been promoting, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to violate the 3 important principles above. PhilKnight (talk) 16:49, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

thank you for your message. I understand your points. But Depart Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity, not a private gallery. I wanted only the users read about a foundation that promote art for the community, such as a museum. In fact I used as a model the Hammer Museum and the American Academy pages. No differences occur among these institutions and Depart Foundation.

Obviously I understand that is not so notable such as a Museum, but I found very interesting the connections between the foundation and a lot of articles present in wikipedia (see the locations of the projects, a lot of artists etc). I apologize if I did something wrong, and I hope we can go ahead with my article.

Your article subject, in order to be included, does require significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject. PhilKnight (talk) 21:53, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Depart Foundation

Hello Depart foundation,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Depart Foundation for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. GoldenRing (talk) 07:05, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I've nominated this page for speedy deletion, largely because you appear to have created it with a conflict of interest. I note also that large parts of it are paraphrased from the foundation's website. If I've misunderstood the situation here, please explain it at the article talk page.
