Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, Questioningthenorm, 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 Draft:QWSTION, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

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, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! doubleA11225 14:58, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

will this be sufficient information to get my account unblocked: I would like to suggest the new username smayrhofer and my reasons for unblocking my account would be the following: Draft:QWSTION was only a draft which I didn't think was sent for review just yet. I know it isn't factual enough yet, but I was still working on it. Furthermore I would like to be unblocked because I want to become a contributer writing articles about companies that focus on sustainability.

Edits to drafts are still visible in the Recent Changes feed of every edit to Wikipedia. Please follow the instructions in the block notice to make an unblock request; you should also review conflict of interest and paid editing. 331dot (talk) 08:10, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

How do I contact the user with the name Athaenara to ask for my deleted draft Draft:Bananatex to be emailed to me? I do understand why it was deleted but would like to have a copy. Thanks for help. Questioningthenorm (talk) 15:27, 18 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

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 Draft:QWSTION, 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. doubleA11225 14:58, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing. Additionally, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:

  • Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
  • Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block. To do so, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page.

Requested username:

Request reason:

My text was by no means finished, and I thought I could save a draft without being passed on for review just yet. I know the article wasn't factual and I would like to be able to make amendments before being reviewed again, please. Have a look at my other finished Draft:Bananatex which in my opinion is factual and finished and ready for review

Decline reason:

Your other draft has also been deleted for being blatantly promotional, an assessment I agree with. It appears your conflict of interest is too strong for you to even notice when you're promoting your company and its products. Thus I have to decline the request. As an aside, promotional content is not appropriate anywhere on Wikipedia, including drafts not submitted for a review. Huon (talk) 14:10, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
