Speedy deletion nomination of CROP Project[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 CROP Project 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 an organized event (tour, function, meeting, party, etc.), 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that your 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. —Theopolisme (talk) 16:02, 8 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

March 2013[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose.

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer instead to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you prefer to change your username rather than create a new account, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice. Thank you. Beeblebrox (talk) 16:15, 8 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

RE:Your email to me[edit]

Hi, i think you have misunderstood the reasons for this block. It isn't that we think you don't officially represent this project, exactly the opposite. Please re-read the above notice, which details why this is undesirable. The username issue is basically not negotiable, you simply cannot use a username that represents an organization of any kind. Accounts are meant to represent individuals. As to the actual article you created, it was obviously not written in the neutral tone expected of an encyclopedia, it did not cite any reliable sources, it did not credibly indicate why the subject was sufficiently notable for its own article, and it also appears to be a copyright violation. That's a lot of problems, so being let off with just a "please pick a new username and try again" block is pretty lenient if you ask me. There is no need to email me, you may appeal the block using the process detailed in the block notice of you still disagree with it. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:29, 8 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
