Welcome!

Hello, Truwsetu3, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Speedy deletion nomination of Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance

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 Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance, 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. –Novem Linguae (talk) 05:00, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Deb. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.
Hello, Truwsetu3. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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.Deb (talk) 10:26, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Hi, this is a school assignment and none of us in our team who have contributed to this page has any interest or affiliation with the FLCCC. We are not promoting their services/products. In due respect, we are just explaining their viewpoints towards how and when to deal with the Covid-19 disease and the standpoints of the health agencies, domestic and international. Would you mind to show me why you think we are "advertising" for them?

Please read and abide by the Wikipedia:Neutral point of view guideline. For further information, go to Wikipedia:Teahouse or to your student representative. Also, if you post on your own talk page, the message may not get through to other people. Read: Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines for more guidance. Deb (talk) 14:07, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

FLCCCA

Hi. I hope you got my email yesterday. I touched on a lot of the problems with the page you created. As far as it goes with the article being called "promotional", that doesn't mean that people think you're advertising for the group, it's about the tone in which the article is written. It doesn't read like a neutral encyclopedia article, it read like promotional writing. It also didn't have the sort of sourcing you need for an article like this. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 14:55, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Hello all. I'm the one that nominated the article for deletion. If I had seen it was a student editor, I might have handled it more gently. I do recommend using WP:AFC in the future. There you can work on articles and get feedback from a reviewer, without it being deleted. The FLCCCA article from yesterday had major issues, including WP:NPOV/WP:ADVOCACY, promoting ivermectin as a COVID-19 miracle drug (which is basically a conspiracy theory), possibly not passing WP:GNG, and using too many WP:PRIMARY sources. Wikipedia articles should be based mostly on WP:SECONDARY sources like newspapers and books, and not primary sources like the organization's own website or single scientific studies. Hope that helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 12:29, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

A tip

Don't put external links into your text, like you did here. That is considered promotional. Deb (talk) 12:09, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
