== Managing a conflict of interest ==
[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, Oliver140. We [[Wikipedia:Welcoming committee/Welcome to Wikipedia|welcome]] your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things [[Special:Contributions/Oliver140|you have written about]] on Wikipedia, you may have a [[conflict of interest]] (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the '''[[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest|COI guideline]]''' and [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations|FAQ for organizations]] for more information. We ask that you:

*'''avoid editing or creating''' articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
* '''propose changes''' on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{tl|request edit}} template);
* '''disclose''' your COI when discussing affected articles (see [[WP:DISCLOSE]]);
*'''avoid linking''' to your organization's website in other articles (see [[WP:Spam]]);
*'''do your best''' to comply with Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Core content policies|content policies]].

In addition, you are '''required''' by the [[Wikimedia Foundation]]'s terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See [[WP:PAID]]. ''Your draft has been deleted several times at this point and you've failed to disclose your conflict of interest. Do not recreate it in mainspace, especially or you're likely to wind up blocked.''<!-- THE FOLLOWING CATEGORY SHOULD BE REMOVED IF THE USER IS BLOCKED, OR IT IS DECIDED THAT THIS USER DOES NOT HAVE A COI, OR THIS TEMPLATE HAS BEEN IN PLACE FOR A WHILE WITH NO ACTION. -->{{#ifexpr: ({{CURRENTTIMESTAMP}} - 20190911112802) < 5000000000 | [[Category:User talk pages with conflict of interest notices|{{PAGENAME}}]] | }}<!-- Template:uw-coi --> [[User:Praxidicae|Praxidicae]] ([[User talk:Praxidicae|talk]]) 11:28, 11 September 2019 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on [[:The Repair Manual]], requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|criteria for speedy deletion]], by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
* It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See [[WP:CSD#G11|section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion]].) Please read [[Wikipedia:Spam|the guidelines on spam]] and [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations]] for more information.
*It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, ''etc.''), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See [[WP:CSD#A7|section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion]].) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please [[Wikipedia:Notability|see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable]].

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:The Repair Manual|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:List of policies|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 {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=The+Repair+Manual|deleting administrator}}, or if you have already done so, you can place a request [[WP:RFUD|here]].

[[File:Information orange.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Please do not remove [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with [[:The Repair Manual]].

== [[Draft:The Repair Manual|The Repair Manual]] moved to draftspace ==

An article you recently created, [[Draft:The Repair Manual|The Repair Manual]], does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from [[WP:RS|reliable]], [[WP:IS|independent sources]]. <small>([[WP:42|?]])</small> Information that can't be referenced should be removed ([[WP:V|verifiability]] is of [[WP:5|central importance]] on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to [[Wikipedia:Draftspace|draftspace]] (with a prefix of "<code>Draft:</code>" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's [[WP:GNG|general notability guideline]] and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the prompts on the [[Wikipedia:AfC|Articles for Creation]] template atop the page. <span style="color:DarkGray">...</span> [[User:discospinster|<span style="color:DarkOrange">'''disco'''</span><span style="color: #556B2F">'''''spinster'''''</span>]] <sub>[[User talk:discospinster|'''<span style="color:DarkGray">talk</span>''']]</sub> 20:06, 11 September 2019 (UTC)
==MfD nomination of [[:Draft:The Repair Manual]]==
[[File:Ambox warning orange.svg|30px]] [[:Draft:The Repair Manual]], a page which you created or substantially contributed to, has been nominated for [[WP:MfD|deletion]]. Your opinions on the matter are welcome; you may participate in the discussion by adding your comments at [[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:The Repair Manual]] and please be sure to [[WP:SIG|sign your comments]] with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>). You are free to edit the content of [[:Draft:The Repair Manual]] during the discussion but should not remove the miscellany for deletion template from the top of the page; such a removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you.<!-- Template:MFDWarning --> [[User:Praxidicae|Praxidicae]] ([[User talk:Praxidicae|talk]]) 20:28, 11 September 2019 (UTC)
