Welcome!

Hello, Radiostarcontest, 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 User:Radiostarcontest/sandbox, 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Radiostarcontest/sandbox

A tag has been placed on your user page, User:Radiostarcontest/sandbox, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

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. ― Blaze Wolf^Talk_{Blaze Wolf#6545} 13:43, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (April 4)

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 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 User:Radiostarcontest/sandbox 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.

Hello, Radiostarcontest! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Theroadislong (talk) 13:45, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Theroadislong, thanks so much for your kind words.

If there is anyway at all that anyone could help me retrieve the page. I've spent 6 years building up this contest. It is purely non profit and just set up to help showcase talent that was not getting noticed in the industry. It's just myself and my partner running it , but we have made such an impact. I have included all the sources / references. Is there anything I can do, just let me know and I am happy to oblige. Yours Sincerely, Tracey Radiostarcontest (talk) 14:09, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No there is nothing you can do, please read Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not here to tell the world about your noble cause. Theroadislong (talk) 14:58, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Theroadslong, I understand, I just figured because the likes of other contests such as XFactor and Got Talent shows are permitted, that this would be allowed. Thank you for the information. Radiostarcontest (talk) 20:02, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No, see other stuff exists. Theroadislong (talk) 21:17, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

April 2023

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.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable, regardless of the username that you choose. 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. Whpq (talk) 13:48, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (your reason here) --~~~~

Hi Whpq, I have created this contest over 6 years. It is completely non profit and set it up to showcase talent that was not getting noticed. I have put a lot of work into this and spent days coming up with this information for wikipedia. Please, dont delete. I would be so, so very grateful for any help whatsoever from wikipedia experts. I really just want to help talent get noticed in this 'needle in a haystack' industry of audio. There is so much talent out there and I want to continue doing this every year for free. If this in any way comes across as advertising, I am extremely sorry and would like to obey by your rules and extremely open to as much help as I can get. I have no funding and do this with my partner, just the two of us. Yours sincerely, Tracey Radiostarcontest (talk) 13:58, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a web host for publicizing your organisation. Any article must be written from a neutral point of view which is difficult for somebody with a conflict of interest. As well, to meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria, a topic have significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. As noted above, your user name is not compliant with user name policy. You will need to change it. -- Whpq (talk) 14:06, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Could I just ask why other similar talent contests such as XFactor, GotTalent, Top Talent (South Korea) ,Star Search, USA and many more talent shows are already included onWikipedia? I am confused why I am any different. Thanks for your help. Radiostarcontest (talk) 20:53, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Because they meet the inclusion criteria I just stated above. Your page was very promotional. -- Whpq (talk) 20:56, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Whpq, I have just requested a name change (awaiting approval)

So if I rewrite the article, could I try publishing again?

Thank you. I am completely new to this, so really appreciate any help I can get from you. Radiostarcontest (talk) 21:02, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Help:Your first article provides some advice, but it also contains the section WP:AVOIDCREATE which you need to read and understand. There is no policy preventing you from attempting to write about your organisation if you declare your conflict of interest but it is highly discouraged. If you are absolutely insistent that you want to try to write the article, you should create it as a draft and submit it through Article for Creation. My very blunt advice is writing a Wikipedia article about your own organisation is a very bad idea. -- Whpq (talk) 01:02, 5 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
