Speedy deletion nomination of Steve Kuhn (executive)
edit
A tag has been placed on Steve Kuhn (executive) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:
this "article" is perhaps more like a press release trumpeting the achievements of the subject. The article was written[1] by indefinitely-blocked[2] sockpuppet User:Ombase — perhaps yet another undisclosed-paid-editor account. The use of Wikipedia for PR purposes is forbidden. Please delete this article per CSD G5, CSD G11, and WP:NOTFORPROMOTION, and please salt so as to prevent future shenanigans
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria 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. —Unforgettableid (talk) 03:52, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
The article Steve Kuhn (executive) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
This "article" is perhaps more like a press release trumpeting the achievements of the subject. The article was written[3] by indefinitely-blocked[4] sockpuppet User:Ombase — perhaps yet another undisclosed-paid-editor account. The use of Wikipedia for PR purposes is forbidden. Please delete this article per WP:NOTFORPROMOTION, and please salt so as to prevent recreation for a fourth time.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. —Unforgettableid (talk) 02:49, 23 January 2020 (UTC)
