Hi Bobbaker274! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia.
Be our guest at the Teahouse! The Teahouse is a friendly space where new editors can ask questions about contributing to Wikipedia and get help from experienced editors like Abelmoschus Esculentus (talk).

We hope to see you there!

COI

[edit]

If you have a conflict of interest you must declare it. In particular, if you work directly or indirectly for an organisation, or otherwise are acting on its behalf, you are very strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. If you are paid directly or indirectly by the organisation you are writing about, 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:Bobbaker274. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Bobbaker274|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. 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 for music. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the organisation, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, 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 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
  • you must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic.
  • 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 reply to the COI request above Jimfbleak - talk to me? 08:36, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The article Secruni has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Wholly unsourced article. Google searches for "Secruni," "Secruni religion," "Secruni aura," and other permutations show no results. Article is entirely general statements, no specifics of any sort. It also notes that this is a small group about whom virtually nothing is known, so likely this does not even meet WP:GNG. At best this should be moved to DRAFT until it can be fleshed out/sourced. Link to this article on Aura_(paranormal) has been removed until it can be improved.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Deletion discussion about Secruni

[edit]

Hello, Bobbaker274,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username JamesG5 and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Secruni should be deleted. Your comments are welcome over Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Secruni .

You might like to note that such discussions usually run for seven days and are not ballot-polls. And, our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|JamesG5}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

RE your removal of the original PROD, in case you do not see my comment on the article's Talk page: "That's not typically how the PROD process works, generally creators should not remove the template without making the requested changes to the article to bring it in line with Wikipedia policies. You cannot simply create wholly unsourced articles and claim you have spoken to "experts," articles must be verifiable with independent 3rd part sources. I would also note that the PROD process I use isn't like a speedy deletion, it does give time to improve things. Since you've disputed it I've submitted this article to a formal AfD process here Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Secruni. Please do not delete the template from the article. Due to the way this process works removing the template won't affect the process." JamesG5 (talk) 16:30, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
