Welcome! edit

Hello, Wshammon, 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 Institute of Child Nutrition, 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! Onel5969 TT me 14:00, 9 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Institute of Child Nutrition 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 Institute of Child Nutrition, 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.

COI edit

You have an obvious conflict of interest and you must declare it as indicated below. You have been open on your user page, which is why I haven't blocked you, but if you work directly or indirectly for an organisation, or otherwise are acting on its behalf, 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 in the form: {{paid|user=Wshammon|employer=Institute of Child Nutrition|client=}}. Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message. Also read the following regarding writing an article:

  • you must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the organisation or company, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, logs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company or organisation claims or interviewing its management. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls
  • The notability guidelines for organisations and companies have been updated. The primary criteria has five components that must be evaluated separately and independently to determine if it is met:
  1. significant coverage in
  2. independent,
  3. multiple,
  4. reliable,
  5. secondary sources.
Note that an individual source must meet all four criteria to be counted towards notability.
  • You must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, with verifiable facts, not opinions or reviews.
  • There shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections.
  • You must not copy text from elsewhere. 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. We require that text posted here can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose, including commercial; text is considered to be copyright unless explicitly stated otherwise. 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.

Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Also read Your first article. You must also complete the COI disclosure as directed above. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 14:47, 9 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

More edit

To expand on the above, if you changed your user name to include the organisation name, that is a blockable violation of our user name policy. Also note hat although not a reason for deletion, you should write in sentences, not bullet-pointed lists, and use normal sentence-case capitalisation in headings.

Large parts of your text were unsourced, and many of the refs you did give were to your own or affiliated sources, not independent third-party sources. We don't want to know what the organisation says abut itself. You said This information is also from the Chancellor's Report. This would be referenced as an unpublished report. if it's not published, we can't check it, can't be used here.

The tone and content were highly promotional, even the headings had value judgements Key Highlights... (sourced to your own chancellor), Important Accomplishments... (likewise). This continued in the text, full of visions, missions, aims and missions, where you should be giving us just the verifiable facts, not just funding, but staffing numbers and expenditure too.

Your text was riddled with external links, there shouldn't be any outside the refs and a separate EL section, and even there you should just link to the main ICN website, if people want more they can find it there.

I have a concern that large chunks of text are unreferenced and without wikilinks; this usually suggests that they are copied from somewhere else and therefore a copyright violation. I can't check whether that's the case while it's deleted, but if I restore, I'll run a script, so you need to be aware of that.

If I restore, you will need to remove fair amount of irrelevant stuff of only internal interest (why, for example, do we need full bios of your directors?), make sure everything is referenced to appropriate sources and produce a neutral encyclopaedia article. Let me know if you wish to proceed, and note that you must reply to my copyright query.
