If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Speedy deletion nomination of Ran Poliakine

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 Ran Poliakine, 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.

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.

Hi, thanks for message. I deleted your article because

  • it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. (organizations and companies) (music) (software) (academics) It is now Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references, as defined in the link, or they will be deleted. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the company, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company claims or interviewing its management. most of your so-called references didn't even mention him, let alone verify the facts. Most appeared to be spamlinks to company websites. The one or two that did mention him failed on other criteria, such as just quoting what he had said or being blogs etc.
  • it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include: widely known for identifying tech trends and bringing innovative technology solutions... credited with having created the wireless charging industry... he raised more than $130 Million and oversaw the expansion of Powermat technology internationally... to simplify and enhance people’s lives through technology... first-ever technology that helps take the guesswork out... Wellsense technology is already in use in major hospitals throughout The US and internationally... Poliakine is widely credited with having founded the wireless charging category...— and so on... Most of the spam for the products eg VersaTile provides unparalleled ambiance adjustment... A breakthrough design solution doesn't even pretend to have references
  • the article was a copyright violation of the company's site, for example the VersaTile text is from here, marked Copyright 2015 Ran Poliakine. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient. But in any case the copyrighted text is far too promotional to be useful for Wikipedia's purposes, so there would not be any point in your jumping through all the hoops that are required.
  • I note that you refer to him deferentially as Mr, and that your username Ran Poliakine reflects his name, suggesting that you work for him. Ran has been a part of creating some amazing life saving products, and he has also changed the way we look at charging (wireless charing)... I know that this is a game changing person in the world— reinforces that. You have a conflict of interest when editing this article, and you must declare it. If, after reading the information about notability linked above, you still believe that he is notable enough for a Wikipedia article (and that there is significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources), you could, if you wish, post a request at Wikipedia:Requested articles for the article to be created. See also Wikipedia:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.
  • Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. If you work directly or indirectly for him or his companies, you must delared that. Paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a black hat practice.

    Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

    Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Rpk2014. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Rpk2014|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. Please do not edit further until you answer this message.

I suggest that you work on this article here initially, out of the direct line of fire. He appears to be notable, but, as you have probably gathered, we need independent third-party references that support the specific facts, and the text must be neutral in tone. Finn M. W. Caspersen is a featured article; you don't need that level of detail or the fancy reference templates for a basic article, but it gives an idea of language and structure. I'm happy to comment on any draft before it goes to article space Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:42, 20 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Ran Poliakine

edit
 

The article Ran Poliakine has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.
