[edit]Hello, I'm Donner60. An edit you recently made to Inkshares seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to do so. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 04:01, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of "Inkshares"
[edit]Inkshares, a page you created, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is obvious advertising or promotional material.
You are welcome to contribute content that complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.
Thank you. Donner60 (talk) 04:02, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
- I suggest you put your reasoning on the talk page. I am not an administrator. Now that I have tagged the article, and it was also tagged by another editor earlier, it will be up to an administrator to decide whether the article can exist in its current form. Note the information on the speedy deletion template concerning the proper way to describe a company without promoting it. You may have to accept that the article is flawed and try to recreate it in proper form and with citations to reliable, verifiable, neutral and independent (third-party) sources later. If an administrator accepts the article as you have revised and shortened it, you will have a good start but you will need to provide some more explanation and citations proving notability or someone is likely to bring it to another step in the deletion process.
- Copying information from a company's web site is almost certainly going to result in promotional material being put into the article. See Wikipedia is not a soapbox or means of promotion. It also can result in a copyright violation. See Copyrights, Wikipedia:Copyright Problems and Wikipedia:Copyright violations.
- In addition to the linked pages above, I suggest you review the following pages about contributing to Wikipedia:
- Wikipedia:Tutorial; and Wikipedia:Contributing to Wikipedia; and Getting started
- Wikipedia:Avoiding common mistakes; and How to edit a page
- Wikipedia:Simplified ruleset; and Wikipedia:Manual of Style
- Help:Referencing for beginners; and Help:Footnotes
- Wikipedia:List of policies; and Wikipedia:List of guidelines
- The five pillars of Wikipedia; and Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not; and Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Words to watch
- Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources; and Wikipedia:Verifiability; and Wikipedia:No original research; and Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
- Wikipedia:How to copy-edit
- Help:Introduction to talk pages; and Help:Using talk pages; and Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines
- Wikipedia:Images; and Wikipedia:Image use policy
- Help:Contents and Wikipedia:Questions provide guidance and links to pages where help can be requested. Also see Wikipedia:Teahouse.

Speedy deletion nomination of The Life Engineered
[edit]Hello Pda4ever,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged The Life Engineered for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
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. Mduvekot (talk) 03:15, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
The article The Life Engineered has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Notability not established with substantive sources for book self-published on CreateSpace
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Reywas92Talk 14:07, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:The Life Engineered Cover.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:The Life Engineered Cover.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:48, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
