 Courtesy link: Babajide Akeredolu

Please help me with this profile, "Babajide Akeredolu" I am trying to create a page and I am not getting the referencing well MarcusOpeyemi (talk) 14:28, 7 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Marcus. Welcome and thank you for your question. To clarify any possible misunderstanding: Wikipedia does not host profiles; it publishes articles. The difference being that the former presents a subject the way the subject wants to be seen, such as on social media, and the latter presents a neutral summary of what has been reliably written about the subject. The Core Content Policies here are firmly against profiles, in other words. To answer your actual question, however, I suggest that you start by reading this link. The actual mechanics of creating a reference are eased greatly by using the Cite tool. If you look at the bar directly above the editing area, you will see: > Advanced > Special characters > Help > Cite Click Cite and you will see a new bar below the top one. The first item on that bar is Templates ∨. Click that and choose the type of source you are referencing. You will then see a dialog box that provides you with all the fields you need to fill in to create the reference. I hope that helps. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 16:38, 7 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Ore Industrial Park, 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.

As previously advised, your edits give the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. You were asked to cease editing until you responded by either stating that you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits, or by complying with the mandatory requirements under the Wikimedia Terms of Use that you disclose your employer, client and affiliation. Again, you can post such a disclosure on your user page at User:MarcusOpeyemi, and the template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=MarcusOpeyemi|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. Please respond before making any other edits to Wikipedia. Liz Read! Talk! 07:08, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, I'm Deb. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they appeared to be promotional.

Hello, MarcusOpeyemi. Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia. I'm sorry, but a page you created  Razaq Obe has been deleted as meeting one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects of articles must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources which are unconnected with the subject and which provide verifiable information. Someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written a great deal about the subject. Please see WP:CORP for subjects that are groups or companies or organizations. Please see WP:ANYBIO for subjects who are people. Please see Wikipedia:Common sourcing mistakes (notability). Wikipedia:The Wikipedia Adventure is a useful tutorial.

Also, encyclopedia articles must be neutral in tone and not use language that promotes or advocates for a subject, or tries to cast the subject in a favorable light. Please see Information on content and common pitfalls to avoid here and here. Sometimes creators of promotional/advocational content are bewildered that it is considered such. If one has been trained to write such content, or if one has spent some time writing such content, one may simply be blind to non-neutral phrases or styles.

Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. A common assumption is that the prohibition against promotional editing applies only to businesses or organizations. It applies to any topic, including a person, a non-commercial organization, a point of view, etc.

CV's/resumé's are by their nature promotional. Writing about oneself or any connected subject is discouraged as the connection can make objectivity difficult. Information on avoiding advocational content and common pitfalls is here and here, however be aware that these are not exhaustive.

New article creation can be difficult, but the Article Wizard can help you. The new user tutorial can help you avoid future problems. You can also ask for help at the Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk, and on IRC chat. Sometimes it is better to first gain experience by fixing and helping maintain existing articles. Wikipedia:Community portal/Opentask contains links to things that badly need doing, if you are so inclined.

You still have not adequately responded or taken action to the inquiry regarding your appearance as an undisclosed paid editor. If you make any additional edits without complying, you may be blocked from editing. Wikishovel (talk) 14:37, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am not a paid editor, neither have I received any form of monetary income from using this platform. I started using this platform as a beginner, picking in random topics to edit, my ultimate goal is to become a good editor in line with the rules and regulations of this platform. I do assure the team that I will continue to uphold the ethics of this platform as I have done ever since I started using this platform.
Thank you very much. MarcusOpeyemi (talk) 14:42, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
