Welcome![edit]

Hello, Supplypike1234, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Draft:SupplierWiki, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:SupplierWiki[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:SupplierWiki, 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 17:10, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This page is strictly to let people know who we are, not for promotion at all. Supplypike1234 (talk) 14:08, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Publicizing your company's existence to the world is promotion. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 14:48, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

May 2023[edit]

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because of the following problems: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of username and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked. In your reasons, you must:

Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 17:25, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This user's request to be unblocked to request a change in username has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without a good reason (see the blocking policy). Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Request reason:

This is my first time creating a page, and I am just trying to create a page about our team. Nothing promotional, which I see you can't use to many external links so the next draft will be strictly text and link to our company page that is being made on Wikipedia. we do not receive any compensation for this. This will not happen again. I understand what I did wrong, and would like to be unblocked Thanks. Supplypike1234 (talk) 14:32, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

The content of the encyclopedia is called articles, not the broader term "page". This is an important distinction. Articles are typically written by independent editors wholly unconnected with the subject. Please read conflict of interest and paid editing(which includes general employment). We will want to see an edit history of edits in other areas before permitting you to submit a draft about your organization. Please tell us what other topics you want to edit about. If your only interest here is in editing about your organization, this is the end of the road. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 18:24, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a business directory, so a company is not entitled to have a Wikipedia article just because it exists. All topics must be notable by Wikipedia's definition to merit inclusion. In the specific case of a company, it must meet the notability criteria for companies and organizations. For this to happen, the company must have already received significant coverage in multiple reliable and independent sources. We have no interest in what a company wishes to say about itself, as this is an inherent conflict of interest. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 14:48, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

So what if we have received significant coverage, and have sources? Also, I understand why the ban was initiated, but I don't feel like it should stay because this is also a first offense. Supplypike1234 (talk) 15:29, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If the sources are both reliable and independent of your company, then it might be notable enough for inclusion. To clarify:

A reliable source is a source with an established reputation for fact-checking and editorial oversight. This heavily favours mainstream news organizations, academic press, and reputable publishers of newspapers, books and magazines.
Self-published sources with no editorial review are not considered reliable. This means that social media sites, blogs, online forums and wikis (including Wikipedia itself) are disqualifed from being used as sources. The only exceptions would be the official social media accounts of existing reliable sources, which are presumed to have content that has undergone editorial review.
An independent source is a source that has no personal, political or financial interest in the topic it is discussing. Independent sources are necessary to avoid any perception of bias (favourable or unfavourable) toward the subject.
