Your submission at Articles for creation: Floriane de Saint Pierre (January 11)

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

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Floriane de Saint Pierre 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:Floriane de Saint Pierre, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and save.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

Wikipedia is not a venue for advertising your subjects or promoting their careers: draft articles with advertisement-like language will never be accepted. Even the first sentence of this draft illustrates the problem: "Floriane de Saint Pierre is a French businesswoman with a career dedicated to leadership, talent and governance". The whole article is fairly similar, and so it's a very easy decline for any passing reviewer. It needs a complete rewrite to remove all of this promo language - although based on the references provided, it does seem as if she passes Wikipedia's bar for notability, so you've already done the hardest part.

Hello The Dover's Wife. Thank you very much for getting back to me and for your feedback! I have updated the page and was hoping you would be willing to give it a look once again to see if the language is better now? Thank you in advance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RC1996 (talk • contribs) 19 February 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Floriane de Saint Pierre

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 Floriane de Saint Pierre, 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.

Hello Matthew, Thank you for taking the time to review my page. I do not seem to understand why the page is nominated for a speedy deletion. I have been working on this page for a few months now, and have been informed by other Wikipedia administrators that the article subject (Floriane de Saint Pierre) is a notable subject, and that my sources reflect this. I have re-worked the text over several months too, and fail to see how the article's tonality is not encyclopedic? I hope you can help me spot out which lines in particular need to be re-written before deleting this page. Many thanks for your help! — Preceding unsigned comment added by RC1996 (talk • contribs) 9 March 2018 (UTC)

The draft was tagged for "decline" by the reviewer with a reason of promotion material, you tagged it for deletion and recreate it, and then moved to article namespace. You always have chance to improve it at draft namespace (despite G11 applies for draft too), not hidden the review comment and then recreate by ignoring the comment. Please read wikipedia:GNG and wikipedia:verifiability before recreating the draft. Matthew_hk t c 08:29, 10 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
