Speedy deletion nomination of Jennifer Mairo

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 Jennifer Mairo, 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.

Hello Ms Siga. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Ms Siga. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Ms Siga|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. Praxidicae (talk) 15:13, 21 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,I absolutely don't have any financial take in it, I'm a blogger so I might have got carried away using some flowery language. Will make amends and remove anything that proves otherwise, thank you. Ms Siga (talk) 17:35, 21 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You are bound to be asked about COI when you write she never thought she would get married so young but believed she was ready to start a family... prides herself in being a voice and inspiration for African women the world over and in 2011 which suggests that you are privy to her innermost thoughts or a mind-reader. Your text was also pretty promotional with totally unsourced claims like have since helped thousands of women and children around the world to get better lives.

You must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that she meets the notability guidelines. It is now Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references, as defined in the link, or they will be deleted. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to her or her organisation, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the she claims or interviewing her. Although some of your sources fell short of that, it's not the worst I've seen, and I'll restore a slightly cleaned up version at Draft:Jennifer Mairo shortly Jimfbleak - talk to me? 07:15, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sourced that from interview she granted

Ms Siga (talk) 07:17, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Like I said, I'm a blogger. I wasn't quoting her verbatim just inference on my part. I don't know this person personally. Ms Siga (talk) 07:19, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I won't see a message here unless you you start it with my user name, User:Jimfbleak and sign it with four tildes ~~~~ in the same edit when you post it. That will send me an alert. As it happens, I came back to tell you I made these edits to your draft, please check. Also note that interviews are not a reliable sources, and you shouldn't present what she says unattributed. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 07:28, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:Jimfbleak Thank you, was replying from my phone, will check the edit now.Ms Siga (talk) 07:32, 22 February 2020 (UTC) User:Jimfbleak I have gone through it and I see what you mean and I know better now, this looks way better, it's concise, no embellishments. Ms Siga (talk) 07:38, 22 February 2020 (UTC) User:Jimfbleak Hello, thanks for your help, where do we go from here? Ms Siga (talk) 16:21, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Much of your text lacks references, you must fix that. My copy edit was just a quick run through, check for tone (mom), spelling (price read) etc. When you are ready put {{subst:submit}} on the top of your page. That will attract a reviewer (won't be me) who may accept the draft or suggest further changes. Take your time on this, it's not like a blog, you will need to get it right Jimfbleak - talk to me? 16:38, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:Jimfbleak Okay, will do. Thank you.Ms Siga (talk) 16:41, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Versace1608. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Tiwa Savage, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Versace1608 ^{Wanna Talk?} 22:10, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Ms Siga. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Jennifer Mairo".

If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! UnitedStatesian (talk) 03:06, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
