Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Femi101
[edit]
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 Draft:Femi101, 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. Qcne (talk) 19:57, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

- Dear Sir / Madam, Thanks for your message. Did a human review the submission (or was it automated)?
- I'm rather surprised (but also, unfortunately, not that surprised) that the first professor of petroleum engineering in all of Africa would fail to meet the inclusion criteria despite the objective detailing and extensive referencing throughout the article.
- To be clear, the erasure of erasure of black academics' contributions to society is a problem that extends way beyond Wikipedia. But nevertheless, notable figures of African origin deserve much better representation on this platform. Full stop.
- In the spirit of being constructive, I'd greatly appreciate any advice you can provide to advance the submission. The importance of this article goes far beyond the people on this message chain.
- Kind regards Sciencegiants137 (talk) 16:16, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
- While there are bots at Wikipedia that automate the more trivial editing tasks, all drafts are reviewed by fellow editors. Your draft and sandbox content has been deleted, but that is because at least two actual people reviewed the content and found it to be blatantly promotional. This is not a decision whether your article's subject merits inclusion at Wikipedia; it is solely a decision that the draft you wrote was blatantly promotional to the point of meriting deletion. If you would like to try writing a new draft, keeping Wikipedia's neutrality, verifiability, and spam guidelines in mind, you are free to do so. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 18:50, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
- Understood, Dan. (and genuinely apologies for being quite presumptuous there...)
- I'll have a go at edit-ing the article and will keep my fingers crossed re the next submission. Thanks for the feedback & advice either way.
