Contested deletion[edit]

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... Please see the Betty Ford Centre article on Wikipedia. You can also visit the additional articles below for similar organizations. Nomina Wellness is the same type of business and this article contains the same type of information as Betty Ford and the others

@Jtoller: The existence of other similar articles does not guarantee the acceptance of this one. This organization must independently meet the criteria of a notable organization with citations to reliable sources to verify this claim. In addition, you appear to have a conflict of interest and possibly undisclosed paid relationship with the subject. Please review the information I posted on your talk page before proceeding any further. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 22:31, 3 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Drm310: I am not getting paid. In fact, I hope to be a valuable contributor to Wikipedia, but I am just learning. I ticked that I was associated because I know Nomina and their work and am a member of the sober community. I learn best by doing, but would you suggest I stop trying to add articles until I learn everything about Wikipedia? Jtoller (talk) 22:47, 3 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Jtoller: I would strongly advise against creating or editing articles about topics where you have a personal or professional connection. Try minor edits to topics outside of your conflict of interest; try the interactive Wikipedia Adventure; follow the guides entitled Introduction to Wikipedia and Your First Article. This will give you a gradual introduction to Wikipedia's policies, guidelines and editing culture, as well as the technical aspects and syntax of Wikipedia editing. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 05:08, 4 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Found a source* that might be helpful![edit]

Hi! I read your post at the Help Desk, and decided to see if I could dig up anything on Nomina Wellness. I did find an article that has some information (https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/bc-brewery-denied-relief-cra-error-1.5662793) -- but note: this article doesn't have the organization as its main subject, so it can't count towards establishing the notability of the article (such that it could be made into an official Wikipedia page). It can, however, be used to add information to the existing article.

@DeemDeem52:Thank you!!!! I was hoping to write articles about a lot of great charities that I know of, but I'm scared to do any until I get more familiar with the rules :-) Jtoller (talk) 13:18, 4 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
