Hi, thanks for message. Here's some guidance@

  • You must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that he meets the notability guidelines. It is now Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references, as defined in the link, or they will be deleted. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the subject or his organisation company, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, 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 he claims or interviewing him. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls. Some of your text was unreferenced or referenced to unsuitable sources. Note, incidentally, that a local paper isn't a good source, you need regional or national sources to show notability.
  • It's not clear to me that he meets our notability guidelines, I'm pretty sure looking at the criteria I've linked above that ward representative doesn't make him notable as a politician.
  • You mustn't weite in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced or self-sourced claims presented as fact include: cases that have resulted in significant recoveries on the United States' behalf. Hurlock also obtained releases of wrongly incarcerated inmates and attained criminal expungements
  • there shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections. That's particularly the case when they are spamlinks to affiliated sites.
  • the article was a copyright violation. 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 site was marked . We require that text posted here can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose, including commercial but there is no indication that the copied site allows free use. Text is considered to be copyright unless explicitly stated otherwise. 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. You can use sites as sources, but you can't copy or closely paraphrase them, you must write in your own words
  • If you have a conflict of interest when editing this article, you must declare it. In particular, if you work directly or indirectly for him or an affiliated company or organisation, or otherwise are acting on his 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 person or 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:READartNY. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=READartNY|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.

We often restore deleted text on request, but for legal reasons we don't do so for copyright violations.

Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Also read Your first article. You must also reply to the COI request above

Incidentally, headings should have only the first word and proper nouns starting with a capital per WP:MOS Jimfbleak - talk to me? 07:07, 8 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
