A tag has been placed on Amod Kumar, 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.

I have not been paid or related to Mr Amod kumar in anyway personally or professionally. Being my first time as wikipedia editor writing the page , I wanted to write about someone who's work I have been closely following for few years now. Mr Amod is a notable person in the development sector. Interest in his work prompted me to make him the subject of my first article. Curiouscontributions (talk) 12:28, 26 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi. I am a new editor learning wikipedia. I have tried to add content about a notable person. I have tried to follow all the wikipedia guidelines including and not limited to ensuring the article is encyclopefdia and is written in neutral tone. Being new to Wikipedia, it is a new space with steep learning curve. Request to unblock me to enable me to learn and grow more so that i can contribute more in meaningful way. Curiouscontributions (talk) 10:12, 22 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
To request unblock, please follow the instructions provided. Your drafts had no independent reliable sources with significant coverage of this government employee and what makes him important/significant/influential- what we call notability. If you have a connection to this person, please read conflict of interest and paid editing. 331dot (talk) 10:17, 22 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

This does not address your violation of WP:COI and makes me think you believe your contributions were appropriate. Yamla (talk) 10:41, 22 October 2023 (UTC)Reply


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.

The person of interest in the article has not paid me for writing the article. However, I will go through rigourously the guidlines of Wikipedia including copy right infringement and advertising or using promotional tone of the article and ensure to get sufficient understanding before I post again. Request to unblock me to allow me to continue learning about Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Curiouscontributions (talkcontribs)

Once you have understanding, you may request unblock at that time. You must make a new unblock request and specifically speak to what was wrong with your edits and what you will do differently. You must also describe your connection with this person or how you came to edit about them. 331dot (talk) 11:04, 22 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

This is my first article; it has taken me time and trials to understand the user guidelines and rules. There are two major issues with which my account was flagged: COI and advertising/spam. COI : I have been interested in and searching for a way to contribute to Wikipedia for quite some time now. I have made this wiki page for Mr. Amod Kumar, whom I've been following for a few years now. Coming from the development sector and seeing the work done by him, my keen enthusiasm to learn more about Wikipedia has prompted me to write a page. I have in no way been paid to or am not related to Amod Kumar in any way personally or professionally. His notable work in the fields of development and public health as an IAS officer in my region encouraged me to make him the subject of my first Wikipedia page. Promotion/advertising: The information was taken from Mr. Amod Kumar's website and modified. I was not fully aware of the guidelines for creating content. I now understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and the content in no way should be advertising or intended to promote an individual. It is essential to ensure the content has a neutral tone so that there are no biases or false information being propagated. Through each speedy deletion, I have understood and learned how to improve my content for Wikipedia. I have gone through the relevant guidelines thoroughly to ensure this doesn't repeat again, and I request that I am once again given the opportunity to contribute to the wiki in a meaningful way.
