Speedy deletion of Draft:Emma Njoku[edit]

If this was the first article that you 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.

The page Draft:Emma Njoku has been deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. As the page met any of these strictly-defined criteria, it was deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been deleted are:

It seemed to be unambiguous advertising which only promoted a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to have been 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/Organizations for more information.
It appeared to be an unambiguous copyright infringement of https://guardian.ng/news/education-primary-health-care-critical-to-sustainable-development-says-emmanuel-njoku/. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition has been deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion Review.

Emma Njoku[edit]

hi, I removed the reference link "https://guardian.ng/news/education-primary-health-care-critical-to-sustainable-development-says-emmanuel-njoku/" which was the reason for deletion in my first submission and I believe it was a well cited reference for the article, however I have replaced it with other references.

why are you still deleting my article, you should check properly and allow the article for approval, thank you Ekpestar (talk) 18:33, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Emma Njoku (June 13)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Curb Safe Charmer was:

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:Emma Njoku 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.

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:Emma Njoku, 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.

June 2023[edit]

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 for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text at the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 22:06, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I posted this article inadvertently without any intention to promote or advertise the subject.

i will pay more attention next time so as not to appear to be doing such.

I offer unreserved apologies and I request to be unblocked so I can continue to contribute.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

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

Request reason:

kindly unblock me, error is regretted and will not be repeated Ekpestar (talk) 14:29, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Wikipedia does not have "profiles", not a single one. Wikipedia has articles. Whether you are associated with him or not, your purpose here is considered promotional, and you won't be permitted to edit about Emma Njoku at this time. Creating a new article is the most difficult task to perform on Wikipedia, and you will need to learn much more before you will be permitted to edit about him. If there are other topics you want to contribute about, please tell what. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 16:37, 14 June 2023 (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.

I've fixed the formatting of your request. What is your association with Emma Njoku, and what edits do you intend to make? 331dot (talk) 14:50, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have no personal association with Emma Njoku,I have only been following the activities of his foundation online and I have read testimonies of his charitable works from a number of people who are beneficiaries of his charity works. My contribution is simply to create a wikipedia profile to help protect the work he is doing to help the poor. every information I have posted about him are from reputable sources online, and I have no doubt that they are factual. I am surprised why the editors are taking such negative action on my submission and blocking my account. i feel harrased — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ekpestar (talk • contribs)

Criticism of your edits is not harassment. Talk to people who actually have been harassed and put in danger before you claim that. 331dot (talk) 16:38, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

in respect to Emma Njoku article, can the editor that deleted and blocked me show evidence as to where the article I created is promotional or unambiguous advertising? I will like to know so that next time,it can serve as a guide. I am repeating that I was careful with my choice of words about the subject so as not to breach any wikipedia guideline and I am appealing for a careful consideration of my request for the sake of fairness and equity. thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ekpestar (talk • contribs) 16:45, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

On your first try, you added sentences like He is a consummate and dedicated executive with an exceptional entrepreneurial mindset. Setting aside the fact that it's a copyright violation, how on earth is that not promotional or unambiguous advertising? You were then told on this page that you should not "recreate the material without addressing these concerns", but your second draft was identical to the first, and deleted for the same reasons. Then you created the draft for a third time, and this time it included sentences such as Emma Njoku seeks and fights for a better world one day at a time. Do you see why you need to demonstrate that these issues wouldn't reoccur if you were unblocked? (Please remember to sign your posts on talk pages by typing four keyboard tildes like this: ~~~~. Or, you can use the [ reply ] button, which automatically signs posts.) DanCherek (talk) 02:50, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am assuring you that henceforth the errors will not be repeated in my subsequent articles.

I offer unreserved apologies. Kindly unblock me and I will pay closer attention to all guidelines. Thank you Ekpestar (talk) 14:01, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
