Your submission at Articles for creation: Cured Catering (October 24)[edit]

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

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Cured Catering and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, EntrepreneurHunter! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Cured Catering[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 Draft:Cured Catering, 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.

Thank you! EntrepreneurHunter (talk) 15:39, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

October 2022[edit]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Charcuterie board. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. [1] MrOllie (talk) 15:41, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Got it-- thank you!! EntrepreneurHunter (talk) 15:43, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello-- I took this photo, but see that the company also used it-- so Im going to submit a new one, that they did not post; please let me know if this is an issue. EntrepreneurHunter (talk) 15:50, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reply[edit]

Thanks for email. People won't see your comments on this page unless you start them with their user name and sign in the same edit, so I'll ping User:MrOllie for you. I didn't block you for the copyright violation, which is an easy mistake, especially if you took the images, but for being an undeclared paid editor.

You wrote what was essentially a promo for the company, basically "this is what we sell", including of course their famous charcuterie trays. Nothing factual about the company which appears to have no employees, turnover or profits. You were presumably paid for your images, which makes you an undeclared paid editor, which is not permitted. If you want to appeal the block, complete {{unblock|reason=your reason here ~~~~}} and save below (you can still edit this page). You should see a coloured box with your appeal. Another admin will review the block. It is likely that you will have to undertake not to write about this company to be unblocked. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 16:46, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
