Your submission at Articles for creation: Roposo (October 4)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by 78.26 was:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

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:Roposo and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Roposo, from its old location at User:Div23/Roposo.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Roposo (November 9)[edit]

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

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere 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, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

All subjects on Wikipedia must be fundamentally notable to have an article. Our guideline on the notability of companies mandates that a company must be discussed in reliable sources as significant in its particular field to be proven as notable. The sources you have added are primary sources (which do not help prove notability or other associated websites. Specific next steps: What you need to prove notability is things like interviews with the company founders that have been published in industry magazines/news, in depth coverage of this company in reliable independent sources (e.g. the same trade publications). A good example of such a source is the Business Standard article you have already added. Add more of these and ask me if you need any help.

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:Roposo and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Pickyourtrail[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 Pickyourtrail, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discusion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Draft:Pickyourtrail.com concern[edit]

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Pickyourtrail.com, a page you created, has not been edited in 5 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:34, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Pickyourtrail.com[edit]

Hello, Div23. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Pickyourtrail.com".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. 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.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 22:38, 8 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of PickYourTrail[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 PickYourTrail, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

June 2018[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from PickYourTrail, a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Contest this speedy deletion which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 08:54, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks 331dot. I realized I wasn't expected to remove the speedy deletion tag. I however, still want to do required changes to the page and make it eligible for Wikipedia addition. Pls. suggest & guide. Thanks!

I regret to say that based on what I saw, I don't think the business merits an article at this time. Please understand that Wikipedia is not a forum like social media to merely tell about businesses. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, which is only interested in what independent reliable sources with in depth coverage state about an article subject like a business, indicating how it meets notability guidelines, in this case WP:ORG. Please review the guidelines. Not every business merits an article here, even within the same field. The sources you offered were not appropriate for establishing notability; the sources need to be independent and reliable, and be more than a brief mention. Staff interviews, press releases, or any materials put out by the business are not appropriate. I would strongly suggest that you make use of Articles for Creation to submit a draft about this business for review before it is formally placed in the encyclopedia; however, if you do not have appropriate sources with in depth coverage of this business, you would only be wasting your time and that of the reviewer by submitting a draft substantially similar to the one I deleted. Please consider what you want to do carefully.

Do you represent this business? If yes, you need to review the conflict of interest policy at WP:COI and the paid editing policy at WP:PAID(which is mandatory per Wikipedia's Terms of Use for paid editors/company representatives) 331dot (talk) 09:16, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
