A tag has been placed on User:Sttelland, 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.

Please read WP:What Wikipedia is not

In particular, Wikipedia is not a web hosting service.

Besides, user pages are ignored by most major search engines, so it's pretty much pointless to even try to use them for that purpose. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 23:23, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion

This page should not be speedily deleted because... Is an artist page. --Sttelland (talk) 23:26, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a web hosting service, nor is it to be used for promotional purposes.

In general, editors should not write about themselves, their employer, any entity in which they have a financial interest, or any other topic in which they have or would be reasonably assumed to have a "conflict of interest."

If you are here to help build an encyclopedia about topics in which you have no conflict of interest you are welcome to edit. Otherwise, you may find editing a frustrating experience as other editors, like myself, either undo your edits or request that the pages you create be deleted according to the deletion policy. Please read WP:HERE and WP:NOTHERE. If you are in the "not here" category, you are wasting your time, and ours. If you are in the "here" category, then welcome aboard. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 23:29, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not write about yourself or your company

Hello, Sttelland. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page User:Sttelland, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 23:26, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing because of the following problems: 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 against the username policy.

You may request a change of name and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, 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 your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked. In your reasons, you must:

Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
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.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. 331dot (talk) 09:03, 13 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
