User talk:Cigarandtabacltd

October 2012

Welcome to Wikipedia. I saw how you edited or created Cigar and Tabac ltd., and I noticed that the username you have chosen, "Cigarandtabacltd", seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of something other than yourself. Please note that you may not edit on behalf of a company, group, institution, product, or website, and Wikipedia does not allow usernames that are promotional or have the appearance of shared use. If you are willing to use a personal account, please take a moment to create a new account or request a username change that represents only yourself as an individual. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and remember that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. AllyD (talk) 17:37, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Cigar and Tabac ltd.

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Cigar and Tabac ltd., requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Gtwfan52 (talk) 17:49, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

sorry to bring you bad news, but...

Hi. I just visited and edited a bit on the page you just created. I am sorry to say, but unless you can provide some independent sources like newspaper articles, magazine articles or books that show that world has made note of your business, it will most likely be deleted soon. Immediately following this will be a listing of some policies from Wikipedia. It is also not a real good idea to write about your own business...we call that a conflict of interest, and you will be held to the strictest interpretation of policies on notability and verifyability due to that conflict of interest. All articles have to meet one of the Wikipedia guidelines of notability, and generally, a strictly local store that has only been mentioned once in a local paper won't.

Welcome to Wikipedia: check out the Teahouse!

Hello! Cigarandtabacltd, you are invited to the Teahouse, a forum on Wikipedia for new editors to ask questions about editing Wikipedia, and get support from peers and experienced editors. Please join us! Gtwfan52 (talk) 17:42, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose.

If your username doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice. If you prefer to be unblocked for the purpose of changing your username to a username which complies with our username policy, so that your contributions with this username are recorded as contributions of your new username and rather than creating a new account, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice instead. Thank you. SarahStierch (talk) 17:55, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
