Speedy deletion nomination of Miss Fortune[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 Miss Fortune requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, 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. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about 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. — sparklism hey! 14:19, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
May 2013[edit]
Hello, Zapdos101. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Miss Fortune, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. - Vianello (Talk) 15:03, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
I made sure I made the page as neutral as possible, all I have written is about how the band was formed, information on music and other content, nothing to do with the personal lives or anything so there is no way I could be anything other than neutral.
- I should probably clarify a little! You admitted on the talk page you were friends with the band members, which is where the COI originates, not the writing itself. If you can write stringently neutrally about a subject you have a COI with, in some cases that can be okay. The whole warning is just more a caution of, "Hey, you have a personal stake here, so please be sure to keep that on the sidelines." The deletion was due to notability issues, not COI. I didn't personally notice much in the way of problematic editing in that regard, no worries. You're not in trouble or anything, this is all just FYI. - Vianello (Talk) 18:15, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (File:Miss fortune.jpg)[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:Miss fortune.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:15, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
With regards to your edit of Ronnie Radke: Wikipedia does not serve as a vehicle for your personal opinion. In particular, vandalism and defamation are not tolerated, but may result in you being blocked from editing. (Consider yourself warned.) - Mike Rosoft (talk) 18:54, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Ronnie Radke with this edit. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Kubigula (talk) 18:56, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
