Speedy deletion nomination of The Bristol Press

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 The Bristol Press requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about 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. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ^ᐐT₳LKᐬ 03:22, 13 February 2018 (UTC)

Suggestions for improving Raymond Majerus article

Hi, I worked a bit on your article Raymond Majerus adding categories and removing references duplication. My suggestion to you is to use my work on the first reference as the example for removing other link duplications. I also suggest to use archived links where possible to avoid "link rot". Good luck with your edits! -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 11:28, 18 February 2018 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Kiernanmc. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Steve Collins (journalist), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
• disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. It's clear from your facebook page that you are the subject's relative (son, am I right?). ∰Bellezzasolo✡ Discuss 17:15, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
