Speedy deletion of Draft:Downtown Heroes FC

edit
 

If this was the first article that you 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.

The page Draft:Downtown Heroes FC has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seemed to be unambiguous advertising which only promoted a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to have been fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, or you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. 331dot (talk) 19:36, 25 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because of the following problems: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of username and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked. In your reasons, you must:

  • Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
  • Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
  • Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page.

Wikipedia has articles, not pages. This is a subtle but important distinction. Wikipedia is not a directory where existence warrants inclusion, and is not a place for businesses to tell the world about themselves. This is an encyclopedia with criteria for inclusion, called notability- in this case, the definition of a notable business. A Wikipedia article about a business must summarize not what the business wants to say about itself, but what independent reliable sources with sigificant coverage have chosen on their own to say about it, showing how it meets that definition of a notable business. Not every business merits an article, even within the same field. Please see the Five Pillars of Wikipedia, as well as conflict of interest and paid editing. If you want to help us build this encyclopedia by editing in areas unrelated to your business, please follow the instructions above. 331dot (talk) 19:41, 25 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
