Hi, HitroMilanese !
I've made this article putting consecutive 5 hours. I have previously added an article _ informational that was_ It got deleted they informed me to follow some other done work.
This time I fulfilled all rules, regulations, and formats added Wikipedia's explanations, added reference [ it is a small company, so I do not have plenty of external linking's and reference ] still you delete this?
It wasn't an promotional stuff instead a company's introduction. Williamoliverhenry (talk) 11:20, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
HitroMilanese didn't delete this, I did, and I'm happy to explain why.
Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, not a platform for you to promote your business. And before you say "I wasn't promoting", yes you were; you were telling the world about your business, which is pretty much the definition of promotion (see WP:YESPROMO). We have no interest in what you want to say about your business, we almost exclusively want to know what independent and reliable third parties (mainly secondary sources) have on their own said about it and what makes it worthy of note. Wikipedia articles should be primarily composed by summarising such earlier coverage, however your draft cited no such source, it was all backed up by close primary sources such as your company website.
If you wish to try again – after making the paid-editing disclosure, as I've suggested below – please see WP:GOLDENRULE for advice on the basic approach to drafting, and then study the WP:NCORP notability guideline which tells you what sort of sources are needed to establish the notability of a business or other organisation.

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:Apex Digital Agency Pty Ltd, 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.

Information icon Hello, I'm DoubleGrazing. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:58, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Williamoliverhenry. 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 employed (or being compensated in any way) by a person, group, company or organization to promote their interests. Paid advocacy on Wikipedia must be disclosed even if you have not specifically been asked to edit Wikipedia. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

Paid advocates are strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are strongly discouraged 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:Williamoliverhenry. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Williamoliverhenry|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. DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:10, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

PS: I can see that you've sort of made a paid-editing disclosure on your user page already, but it would be clearer if you did it using the standard {{paid}} template. In any case, I wanted to post the above message here, as it provides information on paid editing rules and restrictions. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:12, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I have written this article to make a company page so that I may take part to list of --- page.
They have told me to first have a company page, now when I made a company page, they have marked it promotion. Its my own agency. I have added all references, meanings, fulfilled format then sent to review.
I was expecting to know your stance, because at first place, I am clear what I am doing. Instead of getting response they have deleted my page, saying they see it a "promotion". I've worked on it consecutive 5 hours . Williamoliverhenry (talk) 11:29, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
We do not publish 'company pages', not a single one. We publish encyclopaedia articles on subjects, some of which are indeed businesses and other organisations, which have encyclopaedic merit. So far you have not shown that your business does that.
Also worth noting that Wikipedia is not like eg. LinkedIn, where you are expected to create your own 'profile'. Here, we expect more or less the opposite: that any article is created and subsequently edited by editors who do not have any external relationship with the subject. Note also that if an article is one day published on your business, it does not belong to you or your company in any sense, it is freely editable by anyone. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:36, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
