A tag has been placed on International alliance for responsible drinking, 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, product, group, service or person 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 removed 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. Bazj (talk) 22:22, 15 December 2015 (UTC)

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock.

Request reason:
I wish to request to be unblocked from Wikipedia. I understand that my previous article was considered promotional and biased. I why I am from the organization, I do not intended to use the wiki article as a means of marketing or promotion. The International Alliance for Responsible Drinking is an NGO and not a commercial enterprise, I simply wanted an article on Wikipedia describing what the organization is. I request a chance to be unblocked and allowed to create a appropriate article based on Wikipedia standards. Thank you.
Decline reason:
On Wikipedia, being an NGO or a charity or for profit doesn't matter. All are treated the same, and 'no advertising or promotion' applies equally. You will have to choose another user name, as names appearing to represent organisations are not allowed. Peridon (talk) 11:14, 17 December 2015 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
