Welcome!

Hello, Ddramacat, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as International Free Expression Project, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at the our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

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. If you have any questions ask me on my talk page or you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! WaddlesJP13 (talk | contributions) 17:45, 31 July 2021 (UTC)Reply


Hi WaddlesJP13! I'm quite sorry to see that the Wikipedia article that I contributed to was deleted. When I first wrote the article, it was relatively quickly published, and I was glad to see that it conformed to Wikipedia standards at that point. I noted that, when there was a relationship between the editor and topic of an article, that you had to declare it as a conflict of interest on your Wikipedia talk page, which I did. I also worked on some other pages to get the tone and presentation correct when working on the International Free Expression Project page.

Since the creation of the page, I updated some information and gave the sources for that updated information. When the page was updated in a way that another Wikipedia editor and I both saw as self-promotionary, it was reverted to a previous version and I re-did my updates (which mostly included adding the logo to the infobox and fixing typos/grammatical errors). At this point, you marked the page for speedy deletion.

If you could point out what part of the page struck you as "unambiguous advertising," I'd like to begin the process of "fundamentally rewrit[ing the article] in order to become encyclopedic." Given that the organization in question qualifies as notable according to Wikipedia's standards, I believe that there should be an article about it.

Thank you so much for working to keep Wikipedia's body of knowledge trustworthy! I'm looking forward to contributing more in the future and want to make sure all my work contributes positively to Wikipedia.

Speedy deletion nomination of International Free Expression Project

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 International Free Expression Project, 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.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Eviction Lab, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page New York. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
