Speedy deletion nomination of Likizo lettings
[edit]Hello Leonard Kisuu,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Likizo lettings for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Leonard Kisuu/sandbox
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
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 User:Leonard Kisuu/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 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.

Request reason:
While I understand the breach of policy. I submitted the article while demonstrating to colleagues how to create Wikipedia articles and hence submitted a suspicious article which was incomplete. I have been an active member of the WMF community in Kenya and as a result train interested parties on editing and creating articles. Apologies for the breach of policy and will ensure to avoid submission in further demonstrations. I therefore kindly request to be unblocked.
Decline reason:
I believe that you have some sort of involvement with the Wikipedia community, but I don't believe that your edits were a random demonstration. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 17:20, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

Request reason:
While I now clearly understand the breach of policy. I submitted the article while demonstrating to volunteers how to create Wikipedia articles and hence submitted a suspicious article that was incomplete. I have been an active member of the WMF community in Kenya and as a result, train interested volunteers on editing and creating articles. Apologies for the breach of policy and will ensure to avoid submission in further demonstrations. I therefore humbly request to be unblocked.
Decline reason:
You created a blatant advertisement at Likizo lettings. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 12:54, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

- Deepfriedokra I do not understand what you mean by "Is closed". Kindly explain further Leonard Kisuu (talk) 08:28, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
- "Closed" means that request was addressed- you were directed back here. The UTRS system is only used for requests involving sensitive personal information, or if you lose access to this page. 331dot (talk) 11:02, 26 May 2022 (UTC)

Request reason:
I fully understand the breach of policy I engaged in, regardless of the circumstance, it was still a clear breach of editor policy appearing as advertising or as a paid editor. Most sincere apologies and it will not happen again. I am looking to appeal this block as I would like to resume my activities as a contributor and a community volunteer. I am looking to coordinate and participate in the Wiki World Heritage. As part of the WHindanger project, I would like to document Lake Turkana as well as Lamu Old Town as part of the Told Cities project. The projects will encompass photography contests, as well as editathons. To enable me and my colleague best take on the editathons, I could really use my account for these activities. It is my humble request that this block is revisited so as to enable me fully undertake these projects.
Accept reason:
I've unblocked you per your disclosure here. Please be aware that there will be more eyes on your contributions going forward. Continuing the behavior that got you blocked will almost certainly get you blocked again, and next time it will be a lot more difficult to become unblocked. Otherwise, if you have good intentions, then you have nothing to fear. Good luck, and happy editing. —ScottyWong— 13:47, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for email. Since I blocked you, it's best that I leave it to others to consider your requests. I'm happy to abide by any decision another admin makes, but I won't take any action myself 10:29, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
Fair enough, thanks for the response Leonard Kisuu (talk) 10:49, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- I received your email; unless sensitive personal information is involved, I do not discuss these sorts of matters off wiki as a matter of policy. As I've already reviewed one of your requests, I cannot do another. 331dot (talk) 11:48, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
- Leonard, please confirm that you've read and fully understand Wikipedia's policies on paid editing, conflicts of interest, as well as using Wikipedia for promotion and advertising. Please also confirm that you do not intend to use Wikipedia for promotion and advertising, and that you intend to fully disclose any past or future conflicts of interest (including but not limited to paid editing) that you have with respect to your editing. It would also help if you could tell us whether you intend to continue adding content about Likizo Lettings (either creating an article about it, or inserting content about it into other articles). —ScottyWong— 02:29, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Scottywong, thank you for reviewing my request. I have thoroughly read the policies on paid editing, conflicts of interest and using wikipedia for promotion and advertising. I do not intend to use wikipedia for advertising nor do I wish to continue creating, adding or editing any content with regard to Likizo Lettings but to engage in the aforementioned activities as stated on my request above. Should I experience any grey area, I will definitely reach out to a more experienced editor to consult my uncertainty about an article/edit. I have also well understood the policy on disclosure and will most certainly disclose any conflicts of interest. Leonard Kisuu (talk) 06:10, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
