June 2024[edit]

Hello, I'm Renewal6. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Sam Feldt have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Renewal6 (talk) 11:59, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was only updating the page to reflect a new release. I'll write from a more neutral perspective. However, what was the problem with the newer image I uploaded? Finnriester (talk) 09:24, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, Finnriester. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:38, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Heartfeldt Records (June 22)[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 Ratnahastin 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Heartfeldt Records[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:Heartfeldt Records, 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.

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because your account is being used only for advertising or promotion.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 10:56, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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).

Request reason:

I am a college student, and one of my assignments was to draft, and write a wikipedia page for the label Heartfeldt Records, as I am studying entertainment law at Arizona State University. Apologies that I have never used wikipedia before, however, I am in no means writing these as advertisements or promotions. Solely trying to pass my course, and inform others about the label. Very disappointed that the wikipedia users are not more supportive and helpful. Finnriester (talk) 20:11, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Your entry Draft:Heartfeldt Records was about as far from an acceptable Wikipedia article as is possible. Every single sentence is promotional. Even if you didn't intend to write it as an advertisement, it definitely came out that way. What else would you like to write about on Wikipedia? --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 23:24, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

So because the first article I have ever tried to write on wikipedia reads like a promotional thing I am blocked? Why doesn't someone else try and suggest more than a simple "this is too promotional, no." Where can I get a wikipedia administrator or user who can assist in this instead of just shut me down and block me right away? On top of that, I found the article to be quite informative and don't see how you find "every single sentence to be promotional" Finnriester (talk) 08:57, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Yes, we have a low tolerance for promotional editing. We don't apologize for this. Your text was blatant promotion, this wasn't a close call. You wrote about a Dutch record label, if English is not your primary language you might be missing why exactly what you wrote was promotional. Wikipedia is not for merely providing information and is not a place to just tell about something. That is considered promotional here- you do not have to be talking up a subject or selling something- but you were talking up the label. ("Heartfeldt Records is a label dedicated to the freshest electronic dance music.", "This synergy creates a comprehensive ecosystem that nurtures new talent and connects them with a broader audience. The label's mission is to amplify the voices of rising artists and offer them a platform to showcase their creativity, all while establishing itself as a formidable presence in the music industry.") Virtually your whole text read as if a company representative wrote it to attract artists or sell albums. (If you do work for the company, please see WP:COI and WP:PAID) Articles need to be written very dry, with a neutral point of view, without embellishment or promotion, summarizing what independent reliable sources with significant coverage say, not what the subject says about itself(such as what it sees its "mission" as). Since you don't think you have done anything wrong, there are no grounds to remove the block. 331dot (talk) 11:00, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
