A tag has been placed on Draft:Cycle Planet, 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.

Thank you for declaring your conflict of interest. That doesn't mean you can write what you like, you must follow the guidance below:

  • you must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the organisation or company, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, logs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company or organisation claims or interviewing its management. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls
  • The notability guidelines for organisations and companies have been updated. The primary criteria has five components that must be evaluated separately and independently to determine if it is met:
  1. significant coverage in
  2. independent,
  3. multiple,
  4. reliable,
  5. secondary sources.
Note that an individual source must meet all four criteria to be counted towards notability.
  • You must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, with verifiable facts, not opinions or reviews.
  • There shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections.
  • You must not copy text from elsewhere. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. We require that text posted here can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose, including commercial; text is considered to be copyright unless explicitly stated otherwise. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient.

Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Also read Your first article. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 12:20, 19 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jimfbleak, I would like to add this article as reference WikipediaBasidsinga (talk) 12:41, 19 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There is no point restoring the draft unless you can show why it is notability software. from what you wrote, it's just another of zillions of apps. I can't see that it fulfils any other the criteria listed. Reviews are not relevant to notability, it doesn't matter if you app is brilliant or rubbish, that's not a criterion. I don't know why the opinion of Cycloscope matters anyway, seems to be a two-person set-up, and quoting positive reviews just looks spammy.
It's promotional because it's just telling us what you claim it does, with no independent verification of anything you wrote, and no attempt to tell us in what way it meets our notability criteria. If you hadn't declared your obvious COI, you would have been indefinitely blocked. I can understand that you want to tell the world about your app, and it might be brilliant for all I know, but as I said, that's not enough. I'd be surprised if such a new app met the notability criteria. I'm not against restoring in principle, but you need to convince me that you can show notability, otherwise you are wasting your time Jimfbleak - talk to me? 15:24, 19 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
