User talk:Dotsone

Welcome!

Hello, Dotsone, 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 Danny Fitzsimmons, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Speedy deletion nomination of Danny Fitzsimmons

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 Danny Fitzsimmons, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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 removed 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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Lyla Fitzsimmons (August 13)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Theroadislong was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Lyla Fitzsimmons and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Lyla Fitzsimmons, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, 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.

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Dotsone. 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 COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the COI guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must 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 WP:PAID).

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 21:30, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for advertising or promotion. From your contributions, this seems to be your only purpose.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

– Athaenara ✉ 00:36, 14 August 2019 (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).

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

Request reason:

Hi, I'm trying to find out what is going on here? I have been blocked from editing and also had my daughters wiki draft turned down becuase of raesons 'self published books'. So now not only has she been turned down by publishers for being so young, she has now been turned down a wiki page because we have had to struggle and publish ourselves.!! Absolutly outrageous from society. I will be taking this further. And to block me because of advertising is ridiculous. I only told only facts on the Lyla Fitzsimmons page which is what i believe wiki is for? Dotsone (talk) 17:45, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

No, that is not what Wikipedia is for. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that summarizes what independent reliable sources state about article subjects that meet our special definition of notability.(in this case, that is defined at WP:NBOOK and WP:AUTHOR). Furthermore, you have a conflict of interest in editing about your daughter's book. If you want to write about subjects other than you daughter and her work, please tell what those might be. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 18:06, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Also be advised that legal threats are not permitted(re "take this further"). 331dot (talk) 18:09, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

(decline that was preempted by 331dot's} Just to echo what was already said. (I spent some time typing this. Hopefully it's worth reading.)I'm sorry, but I cannot unblock you. The deleted page was clearly promotional. Please see User:dlohcierekim/g11 for links to more information about that. What's going on is Wikipedia is not a promotional venue for you to promote your daughter's books. I see that you attempted a previous promotional page, Danny Fitzsimmons. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia . Subjects of articles must meet notability requirements. Please see WP:ANYBIO. As to the books, if they are self published, they likely do not meet notability requirements as well. As you have a conflict of interest, it would be best for you to not write about people you know, your children, or any other subject with which you have an off-Wiki connection. As your only purpose in editing Wikipedia is promotion, I cannot unblock you. And if "taking this further" is some form of legal threat, that is certainly your prerogative, but you cannot be unblocked if it is-- please see WP:NLT.-- Dloh cier ekim 18:26, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

As if "taking it further" was a legal thraet! It was just meant i will be trying to contact someone higher than you absolute jobsworths. You really are a bunch of sados. Hope you all get a great kick out of deciding on other peoples pages. Dotsone (talk) 18:54, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Abusive unblock requests are not considered. See WP:No personal attacks. Also, there is no one "higher" than administrators who would review your unblock request. Huon (talk) 18:59, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
