Welcome!

Hello, Magyemang1, 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 Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

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:

Speedy deletion nomination of Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre

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 Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre, 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 a clear copyright infringement of http://www.climatecentre.org/about-us/anbi. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. However, even if you use one of these processes to release copyrighted material to Wikipedia, it still needs to comply with the other policies and guidelines to be eligible for inclusion. If you would like any assistance with this, you can ask a question at the help desk.

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.

Hi, thanks for message. You can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~~~~. I deleted your article because

the article was a copyright violation of the organisation's website. 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. The copied text is marked ClimateCentre.org © 2015, obviously not PD. 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.
it did not 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, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the organisation claims or interviewing its management. You gave no in-line references of any kind, although I saw an (unlinked) mention of your site at the bottom
There
it's all about what the organisation does, little about the organisation itself other than its location. To show notability you need hard verifiable facts such as the number of employees, funding and expenditure. For all we are told, it could be one employee with a laptop
it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Yours is all about what you claim to do, but with no verification or outcomes. Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include: It helps the Red Cross and Red Crescent movement and its partners reduce the impacts of climate change... It is the reference centre on climate change of the Red Cross / Red Crescent society... successful capacity building— it's an extended mission statement/press release with no real facts
there shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections.
If you have a conflict of interest when editing this article, you must declare it. In particular, if you work directly or indirectly for the organisation, or otherwise are acting on its behalf, you are very strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly. Regardless, if you are paid directly or indirectly by the organisation you are writing about, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Magyemang1. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Magyemang1|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message.
The reason for the Wikipedia page was to make it easier to find out about the Red Cross climate centre and also provide concise information for anyone that might want to know more about it.— we are not free advertising, and you must follow our rules. I can't even tell from what you posted whether you actually meet our notability criteria as linked above.

If you want to reply, you can do so on my talk page. You can alternatively leave a message on this page, and I will know you have done so if you start it with my user name, User:Jimfbleak and sign it with four tildes ~~~~ when you post it.

Jimfbleak thank you for pointing out the places of concern to me on the Wikipedia page. I will carefully go through the Wikipedia guidelines and carefully follow the rules. I do not work with the Red Cross Climate Centre or have any relations with them. I appreciate the points you raised and I will endeavor to make the Wikipedia page neutral and abiding to the Wikipedia rules.62.8.120.129 (talk) 14:59, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

OK, if you have any questions, feel free to ask Jimfbleak (talk) 15:52, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Jimfbleak Hi Jim, I did a re-draft of the Red Cross Climate Centre wikipage through the Articles for Creation and submitted it to be reviewed. It has been a week now and I still haven't heard back. I went on my contributions page and checked the history but I wasn't able to find it there? Do you have any idea of what might have happened? Magyemang1 (talk) 09:56, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It was deleted at 21:20, August 15, 2016 by admin Seraphimblade for multiple reasons: speedy deletion criteria G11 advertising and G12 copyright violation. Copied non-PD source is here Jimfbleak (talk) 14:04, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
