Your account has been blocked indefinitely 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 or other organisation or group or a web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of name and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions other than 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 Wikipedia: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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Sports Management Research Institute, Inc.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Sports Management Research Institute, Inc., 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.

Help Needed For Proper Submission

Hi,

We would really love to get our page published, but also want to make sure we are following all Wikipedia guidelines. Is there an editor that can connect with us to help us rework our submission? Or, do you have a service where we can pay an editor to work with us to help us get this published? We are happy to donate to Wikipedia or pay for help services.

Thanks for your time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Go-SMRI (talk • contribs)

@Go-SMRI: You need to disclose that you are paid on your user page. Also, usernames representing shared use are not allowed. Steve M (talk) 23:32, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

I would highly advise that you not pay someone to help with your submission, as they would then have a conflict of interest and be subject to the same paid editing disclosure policy that was mentioned earlier. Paying a third party or donating to Wikipedia will have no impact on the chances of an article about this topic being accepted.

Existing significant coverage from multiple reliable, third-party sources is required for a company to pass the inclusion criteria. Lack of sufficient independent coverage means this company isn't notable enough, and no amount of editing can overcome that. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 02:59, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
