Your submission at Articles for creation: Scottish Collies (March 9)[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 Tails Wx 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:Scottish Collies 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.

is something like this acceptable?

Scottish Collies are a centuries-old and obscure farm breed that originated in and around the Scottish Highlands of the British Isles and are the direct ancestors of the modern-day Rough Collie. In an effort to resuscitate this original historic herding dog and establish the Scottish Collie as a breed in its own right, "The Scottish Collie Preservation Society" was formed. Closely adhering to the collie breed standards of the late 18th century, Scottish Collies now enjoy their own registry and breeding criteria. Due to preservation efforts, there are now #xxx Scottish Collies registered worldwide. Rough Collies from various other registries that meet the health and breed standards of the Scottish Collie have also been included in this registry. The goal is to diversify the gene pool and increase the health and longevity of the Scottish Collie so that the breed may continue to grow and flourish.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Scottish Collies[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:Scottish Collies, 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. Tails Wx 17:21, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

March 2023[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, club, organization, company, or website, I have blocked this account from editing. You are welcome to continue editing after you have chosen a new username that complies with Wikipedia's username policy.

It also appears that your account is intended to be used for the purpose of telling the world about an organization, person or cause that you consider worthwhile. Unfortunately, many good causes are not sufficiently notable for their own Wikipedia article, and all users are discouraged from editing in any area where they have an inherent conflict of interest. You may wish to consider one of these alternative outlets. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid or compensated in any way, you must disclose who is paying you to edit here.

Please take a moment to either create a new account, or request a username change of your current account here. The new username that you choose must represent you as an individual person, and it must comply with Wikipedia's username policy.

To create a new account with a different username, simply log out of this account and then click here to make a new one.
If you prefer to change the username on this account, you may do so by adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page here: {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken or in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.

Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it also identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

Appeals: If your username does not represent a group, organization, website, or other entity described above, and if you believe that this block was incorrect or made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page here: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

Thank you. Cabayi (talk) 21:07, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am not getting paid in any way, I just want to create a wiki for this breed to help raise awareness of the preservation efforts.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

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

Request reason:

I am not being paid, I just want to create a page for the Scottish Collie breed

Accept reason:

I am removing the block because this is not the name of an actual organization. I might suggest that to avoid this confusion(which I can understand so I don't fault Cabayi in any way) in the future that you voluntarily change your username, which you may do at Special:GlobalRenameRequest or WP:CHUS. 331dot (talk) 08:39, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

thank you

Is there an organization called Scottish Collies International? Do you have any connection to them, even unpaid? Daniel Case (talk) 07:33, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

no, i made that name up. Scottish Collies International (talk) 14:49, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

should i change it? if so, to what? Scottish Collies International (talk) 14:50, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's up to you, as long as it's individualistic in nature. Even something like ScottishCollieFan would be okay. 331dot (talk) 08:41, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

ok I get, I will change the name. thank you! 23.170.192.123 (talk) 19:31, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
