Speedy deletion nomination of User:Craig F Duffy/sandbox[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 User:Craig F Duffy/sandbox, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the 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 section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
It appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, and/or activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals. Please note that Wikipedia is not a free Web hosting service. (See section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion.)

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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Craig Duffy (June 28)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Robert McClenon was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This draft, as written, does not appear to indicate that the appropriate notability criterion is satisfied. In particular, this draft does not appear to indicate that WP:NBIO is satisfied. If one of the criteria is satisfied, please revise this draft appropriately, with a reliable source, if necessary stating on the talk page or in AFC comments which criterion is met, and resubmit. It is the responsibility of the submitter to show that a subject satisfies a notability criterion.

You may ask for advice about the notability criteria at the Teahouse.

In particular, see and refer to WP:NBIO for notability, which is the guideline that the subject should be evaluated against.

There has already been an AFD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Craig Duffy (entrepreneur), and the title is salted at Craig Duffy. There is no indication that the subject has become notable since 2013.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Craig Duffy and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Craig Duffy, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Craig Duffy (June 30)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Lee Vilenski was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

*The article suggests this is a professional player, however, to be a professional snooker player, you must become a member of the WPBSA, which I can't find record of. The article suggests that he won a lot of events (such as the world nine-ball championship), where he didn't. However, reaching the semi-finals of the world nine-ball championships (twice) would likely be something notable enough, and should be the crux of an article like this. I recommend checking out newspapers.com to see if there was something resembling WP:SIGCOV to meet this.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

Thanks for the valuable inputs. Based on your inputs I modified the article. Craig Duffy was part of the WPBSA in the past and also website of WPBSA contain list of professional players since 2000 and he was part of the organization before year 2000. I am trying to locate online newspaper link for reference.

I hope it will publish soon. Craig F Duffy (talk) 12:51, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome![edit]

Hello, Craig F Duffy, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited was Craig F Duffy, which appears to be an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. We require individuals to meet Wikipedia's definition of a notable person to accept articles about them.

The page you created about yourself may well be deleted from the encyclopedia. If it is deleted and you wish to retrieve its contents, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page. If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Hello Jay,

Thanks for your inputs. I am new user and I thought if I have to create a article in Wikipedia then I have to create an user with same name as article so I create a user with name "Craig F Duffy". I wanted to make article for Craig Duffy live but till date I can't do it somehow.

I need your help in 2 task :

1. Rename the article from "Craig F Duffy" to "Craig Duffy". The article with name "Craig Duffy" already reside in wikipedia but it is not approved so it is not accessible. The status of that article is "Delete" because the content of the article was wrong.

2. Currently it redirect in talk page from google if I search with keyword "Craig F Duffy". Can you please help me in this. I think it should automatically redirect in "Craig Duffy" once the article is live, right?

Thanks for your help and support in advance. Craig F Duffy (talk) 12:14, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have changed the article name. Please go to Special:GlobalRenameRequest to request a username change, as you are not Duffy himself (see WP:CHU for more information about user renames). If you want more help, change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 12:39, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As you have continued to edit without seeing this message, I have soft-blocked you since you are not Duffy. Please follow the instructions below to rename and unblock your account. Primefac (talk) 12:33, 5 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Craig Duffy moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, Craig Duffy, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hello Robert,

The article(Craig duffy) has been nominated for deleted because of the reason "Person is not notable.".

I am trying to prove that this person is notable sport person with different URLs in reference section. In fact the person is listed/mentioned in 2 Wikipedia pages 1996 WPA World Nine-ball Championship and 1994 Australian Open (snooker).

Also, I am not able to edit the article now. If I wanted to edit the article with more proof then how am I suppose to do that? Craig F Duffy (talk) 09:10, 6 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
