Speedy deletion nomination of Maher Ezzeddine

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 Maher Ezzeddine 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 person or group of people, but it 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 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.

  Please do not write or add to an article about yourself, as you apparently did at Maher Ezzeddine. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

  Hello, I'm Adam9007. I noticed that you removed a Biographies of Living Persons PROD, from Maher Ezzeddine, and I wanted to let you know that I have replaced it. Please don't remove these Biographies of Living Persons PRODs from articles unless they contain at least one reliable source or were created before 18 March 2010. If you oppose the deletion of an article under this process, please consider adding reliable sources to the article or commenting at the respective talk page. Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Maher Ezzeddine, 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.

Please read Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline. As an editor with a conflict-of-interest, it may be difficult for you to write neutrally about topics with which you have a financial connection; as such, direct editing of such articles is discouraged. In fact, the pages you attempted to publish have been deleted several times, probably because editors perceived their tone to be too promotional. Also be aware that a company's mere existence does not guarantee it can have a Wikipedia article: articles must meet a minimum threshold of notability to be kept. You need to find independent sources, such as newspapers, magazine articles, or reliable websites not connected to this company (i.e. press releases are not considered independent sources) that discuss the organization in detail. Just confirming the company's existence is not enough. I'm sorry if this comes across as an unfamiliar policy, but there is a rationale behind this requirement: without sufficient background information, a topic will be too obscure to be grounded in fact, and it will be extremely difficult to develop into a quality article. It would be best to submit your articles through Articles for Creation, a process which allows new users to work on draft articles and then submit them for review. As long as the drafts have been edited within the last six months, they will not be deleted except under severe violations of Wikipedia policy, such as a copyright infringement, which we cannot host under any circumstances. But other than that, an unfavorable review will not lead to the draft's deletion, only a request that it be improved further. Thanks, Altamel (talk) 04:07, 29 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
