User talk:JEPHILP

Welcome!

Hello, JEPHILP, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Hi there, thanks for your msg. How do I lodge with you my recent article for proof reading and ok to publish? JEPHILP (talk) 05:18, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest you use the WP:Articles for Creation approach next time. That process gives you a way to submit your draft for review. Sometimes AfC is a bit slow, but it should feel less harsh than the speedy deletion you just experienced. The main thing you need to do differently next time is to find and use secondary sources about your subject. — jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 09:55, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Hydroflyer

If this was the first article that you 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.

The page Hydroflyer has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seemed to be unambiguous advertising which only promoted a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to have been fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, or you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

thank you for this, is it possible to move that entry back to my Sandbox for substantial re-writing? JEPHILP (talk) 09:31, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. Primefac (talk) 10:09, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
