Welcome!

Hello, Periperiwinkle, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Fullmark, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Speedy deletion nomination of Fullmark

edit
 

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 Fullmark, 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 "Click here to 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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Periperiwinkle. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Fullmark, you may have a conflict of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. While people with a close connection to a subject are not expressly prohibited from editing about that subject, and are often the kind of enthusiastic writers Wikipedia very much needs and appreciates, they will need to be especially careful about ensuring that their edits are supported by reliable sources and writing with as little personal bias as possible. Statements added to an article under the premise, "I know this is true because I am an expert on the subject", are considered unsubstantiated unless accompanied by citations to such sources, and maybe flagged or removed by other editors if they are not.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of potential problems:

  • Exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products with which they are involved.
  • Avoid linking from your organization's web site to the Wikipedia article or vice versa (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Consider disclosing your relationship to the organization or product you are writing about. If you don't, you may be in breach of Wikipedia's Terms of Use (see these guidelines for more information about how and where to do this).
  • Become familiar with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. PhantomTech (talk) 05:59, 24 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Contest this speedy deletion, which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you.

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Fullmark with this edit, you may be blocked from editing. Amaury (talk) 06:42, 24 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
