Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, Tactikast, 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 Draft:Tactikast, 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.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. You can also type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Tactikast, 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.

[edit]
Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because your account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. Also, your username gives the impression that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must:

  • Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
  • Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked; and
  • Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
  • Provide a new username.

To do this, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and 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.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. Orange Mike | Talk 22:19, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]


Hello, Tactikast. Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia. A page you created  Draft:Tactikast 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.

This article needs to be rewritten from scratch from reliable, third party sources unconnected to the subject. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted.

Information on content and common pitfalls to avoid can be located here and here, however be aware that this is not an exhaustive list. Pages can sometimes avoid these pitfalls and still be seen as an ad copy or unambiguously promotional, particularly if the editor appears to be a paid editor or has some other conflict of interest. Please review these policies, including the FAQ page on organizations to determine if this applies to you.

Common mistakes or beliefs about promotional editing center on the assumption that promotional editing only applies to promotion for commercial gain. Some tags or G11 nominations are met with confusion by creators, particularly if they spend much time reading or creating corporate documents, mission/vision statements, or similar copy for their organization. The frequent exposure to promotional tone may make it difficult to notice non-neutral phrases or styles, as the editor has grown accustomed to seeing it as everyday writing or speech. This can be difficult, but not impossible, to unlearn.

Another common assumption is that the prohibition against promotional editing applies only to businesses or organizations. It applies to any topic, including a person, a non-commercial organization, a point of view, etc. and CV/resumé's are by their nature promotional.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources that are unconnected with the subject and providing verifiable information. That generally means someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written a great deal about the subject. Please see this page on citing sources and Wikipedia:Common sourcing mistakes (notability). This page has templates you can use in citing your sources. Place the template {{Reflist}} at the bottom of the page, and references cited in the text will appear there. New article creation can be difficult, but the Article Wizard can help you. The new user tutorial can help you avoid future problems.You can ask for help at Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk and on IRC chat Wikipedia:The Wikipedia Adventure is a useful tutorial.

New article creation can be difficult and frustrating. Sometimes it is better to first gain experience by fixing and helping maintain existing articles. Wikipedia:Community portal/Opentask contains links to things that badly need doing, if you are so inclined. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 02:13, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

First thank you very much Deepfriedokra to unlock my IP. Because I was unable to reply to the Talk. Again really sorry. I misunderstood Wikipedia policy and didn't know about names (It should be much more highlighted during account creation, the "Help me choose" notice being ambiguous I though it was for Random name generation, so I didn't check it) so now I completely understood the block. Then I will not try to create any article related to me (I'm indeed not neutral enough) and possibly any article at all. Because indeed it seems much more harder that what I though. If 1 day I have the luck to encounter someone who can neutrally create an article about my company well I may ask me (But I doubt I will find). Still knowing a lot in the Digital field there are Hundreds of Technical Articles I can probably slightly improve, So I kindly request unblocking my Account. Sorry Again 2001:861:2C01:A320:6F35:9597:68A6:907C (talk) 15:37, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

I have accepted your unblock request. Please take care to avoid any edits that could be construed as violating the conflict of interest policy. You are welcome to contact me on my talk page if you need any assistance. Jake Wartenberg (talk) 01:10, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This request was made by an IP; if this is you, please log in to confirm. 331dot (talk) 17:14, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I did not unblock anything. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 19:21, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I confirm, Sorry again Tactikast (talk) 16:34, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure If you saw my first reply, confirming. So I allow me to reply again. Tactikast (talk) 16:12, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've renamed you; Agreeing to not create an article about your company is a good start; this would also need to (at least temporarily) include not editing articles that are related to your company, such as about its field per conflict of interest. Is that okay? 331dot (talk) 09:06, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I understood, I will not edit anything, and if I have a doubt I will ask First. Scoutsty (talk) 15:21, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Orangemike: Care to weigh in? Jake Wartenberg (talk) 21:07, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm willing to assume good faith. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:37, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As said I simply misunderstood Wikipedia policy. When you are a little indie like me it's hard to find exposure most of my mail will simply fall in the spam folders of Streamers. The remaining mails will be in the middle of 1 hundred mails stack.
Considering I'm unknown, Streamers will always favourite a most famous company.
Still seeing a lot of indie having a wiki entry. I considered fair to have my own.
Considering well-known Journals and Streamers will difficultly spot me. I Perfectly know I can not reach any search engine First Page (Except my Own SE, well better though XD, even if still in early early stage) if I don't have at least Wikipedia talking about Me.
Still I didn't want to directly highlight my search engine (What I would consider more like advertisement) so I preferred to write an article directly about my enterprise telling me it was more soft.
Still I understood it's forbidden to write such article or at least not before we reach a specific renown. So as said If I have the luck to encounter someone who neutrally accept to create an article about my company well I may ask me.
But as long as I'm concerned I will not write anything about me. Scoutsty (talk) 16:35, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
