Speedy deletion nomination of Michael Banks (internet personality)[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 Michael Banks (internet personality), requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be 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 or person 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/Business for more information.
It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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, you can place a request here. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:31, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for advertising or self-promoting in violation of the conflict of interest and notability guidelines. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 05:47, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

ChipUK (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Unfinished page was published, not intended to be advertising. I apologize for that. Also, the IP in question which has been blocked is a public static education IP which over 500 people use. ChipUK (talk) 13:59, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

We do not get to write about ourselves on Wikipedia. Other editors are free to request unblock if the wp:autoblock on your IP is causing problems, but you appear to be the only editor using that IP. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 16:45, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

ChipUK (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

An unfinished page was accidentally published. It was not to be used as advertising. The IP is one which is utilized by 500+ people in an educational environment. I am not the only editor on the network. Also, the page is in fact not about myself, but a third party. ChipUK (talk) 15:52, 7 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Procedural decline: no response in >3 days. As there are significant issues at play, any new unblock request must address them all D P 10:08, 13 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If it's not about yourself, do you mean you're impersonating Michael Banks by using his "online alias" (as you described it in the article you created)? --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 16:03, 7 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The content of Michael Banks (internet personality) looks non-notable, but not blatantly promotional. ChipUK, you should tell us what you intend to write about if you are unblocked. Sandstein 10:14, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
