Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Faculty of Forestry, University of British Columbia

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 Draft:Faculty of Forestry, University of British Columbia, 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Thanks for email. If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe my block was made in error, or you wish to contribute constructively in a different area, you may appeal it by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, or what positive contributions you wish to make, and publish the page.

I won't consider any appeal myself, since that wouldn't be fair on you. It will be a condition of any unblock that you don't attempt to write about the topic for which you have a conflict of interest, so if you appeal, you will need to

• 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.

I'm afraid it's not as simple as declaring a COI and carrying on spamming. FWIW, your article would have been deleted anyway, since it's highly promotional, entirely lacking in independent third-party sources, and may be a copyright violation too Jimfbleak - talk to me? 08:41, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
