Speedy deletion nomination of User:Striker442

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:Striker442, 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.

User page

Sorry, but your user page does not conform to Wikipedia's user page guidelines. It is intended for basic information about yourself and your Wikimedia-related activities. Although a lot of freedom is allowed in personalizing your user page, it is not:

an encyclopedia article (and should not be styled to look like one)
a workspace for a draft article
a personal website, blog, or social media site
a space for self-promotion or other advertising
a CV/resumé
a lengthy autobiography

The user page guidelines have additional information on what is and what is not considered acceptable content. Thank you. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 14:46, 14 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Longcliffe Quarries (January 14)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by KylieTastic was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Longcliffe Quarries and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Longcliffe Quarries, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Wikipedias's guideline on "conflict of interest", and related matters

Just a heads-up on something which may or may not apply to you. If you are connected to someone or something you have written about (a few examples are writing about yourself, your business, your band, a member of your family, your client) then you should be aware that Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline discourages you from writing about that subject. The main reason for that is that experience over the years indicates that editors with such a connection to a subject they are writing about are likely to find it very difficult, or even impossible, to stand back from their writing and see how it will look from the detached perspective of an outsider, so that they are likely to write in ways that look promotional to others, even if they sincerely think they are writing in a neutral way. Also, if your editing forms all or part of work for which you are paid, whether as an employee, as a contractor, or in any other capacity, the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use require you to state who is paying you, and what your connection to them is.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Longcliffe Quarries (January 14)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by JBW was:

Numerous new references have been added since the last submission was declined, but unfortunately none of them contributes to evidence of satisfying Wikipedia's notability guidelines. All but one of the references in the article does not give anything that could be regarded as substantial coverage to Longcliffe Quarries. (Some give significant coverage to a topic connected to Longcliffe Quarries, but not to the company as such, others don't even do that.) The one cited source that gives somewhat more substantial coverage (though still not very substantial) is not only written in glowingly promotional terms, but also uses the words "we" and "ours". Either of those two facts would be enough to preclude considering it as an independent source.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

Longcliffe

Hi - You have twice now added unsourced material to the article on Longcliffe. Please read WP:CITE and WP:RS. If you continue to add unsourced material you may be blocked from using wikipedia. Thank you. Dormskirk (talk) 08:36, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I chanced upon your edits to Longcliffe (and Donington Hall). It appears that you may have a conflict of interest in that your changes have been promotional to the business located therein. Please familiarise yourself with WP:COI, WP:PROMOTION and WP:NPOV, and also WP:Edit war. If you have any connection in promoting these businesses you should refrain from further direct input; suggestions for changes can be made at the Talk page.

I have toned down some content as a quick, intermediate edit and changed the layout to de-emphasise the existing business. Please also note that any change which alters the way in which the text is read and understood should not be marked as minor. Thank you.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 11:10, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
