A tag has been placed on Neil Patel (digital marketer) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
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. Tame (talk) 18:56, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Request reason:
I have absolutely no association with and have never even had any contact with Neil Patel (just used to read his blog ~3+ years ago), and mistakenly thought he met the notability requirements when I created the page — I was not aware his page had been deleted before.
Decline reason:
So you read his blog three years ago, and last December decided to write about him? That doesn't make sense to me. 331dot (talk) 21:02, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
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.
- Literally yes, this accusation of "covert advertising" is totally baseless; to be candid I am a bit taken aback at how aggressive and unfriendly the Wikipedia community has been on this matter...CrazyEgg, Kissmetrics, and Neil Patel's own website are all commonly-used, highly-popular references in my field of expertise. As such, I was surprised to see he didn't have a page and simply thought this article was "low-hanging fruit" and an opportunity to create my account's first full Wikipedia page. I understand now that his page was deleted before because he doesn't meet the notability guidelines, but I was *not at all aware of this* prior to creating the page (otherwise I wouldn't have) -- I am a novice Wikipedia user and hope you will give some though & consideration to the facts of the matter rather than make presumptions.

Moreover, I would contend that this seems like unfair treatment of my account + Neil Patel's page -- see these pages: Applico, Alex Moazed (both of which are considerably less notable than Neil Patel, yet in the same field), both of which were created by Alexijm in obvious violation of WP:COI, yet neither the account nor the pages have been removed in years. I don't understand why this case is being treated differently. GatoradeFrost (talk) 17:08, 6 October 2022 (UTC)

This seems to be a rant about how life is unfair rather than an unblock request. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 19:57, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
