[[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|Speedy deletion]] nomination of [[:User:Alabare Communications]]
A tag has been placed on your user page, :User:Alabare Communications, 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 {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=User%3AAlabare+Communications|deleting administrator}}.

:Hi there- I'm trying to set up a Wikipedia page that enables people to understand what our charity does. I have tried to follow the format of existing charity pages such as Shelter (charity) - Wikipedia. Can you please recommend edits that would make the page I'd drafted appropriate?

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 follow all these steps:
- 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, insert the text
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 search to 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 still available.
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
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. Bbb23 (talk) 15:31, 8 May 2025 (UTC)
{{unblock-spamun reviewed|Your proposed new JamesTomlinson1986|I tried to create an article for a registered UK charity to improve its awareness so that we can transform the lives of homeless, veterans, young people, those with mental health challenges and learning disabilities. I made mistakes in good faith, and I promise to follow Wikipedia's Policies and guidelines in the future. I understand now that the purpose of a userpage is to describe myself and my plans as an editor. I will also disclose my conflicts of interest and my paid status as a staff member of the charity. The proper process for you to draft an article is called Articles for creation. I'm also aware that the article was written in the organization's voice, as if it was a brochure or website for the charity and that it relied heavily on references to the charity website. I'll address this in future. Alabare Communications (talk) 07:35, 9 May 2025 (UTC)|decline=You proposed your new username as "Your proposed new JamesTomlinson1986"; I assume you just want "JamesTomlinson1986"- which would be acceptable. You say above that you're trying to "set up a page that enables people to understand what our charity does"- that's exactly what your charity website and social media are for, not Wikipedia- even if your organization does good work. Wikipedia articles serve to summarize what independent reliable sources with sigificant coverage have chosen on their own to say about (in this case) an organization, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable organization. That's usually very, very difficult for a represenative of an organization to do, as it requires them to set aside everything they know about the organization and all materials it puts out(like interviews, press releases, or annoucements of its activities) and limit themselves to summarizing independent sources. This does happen, but it is rare- so we'll need to to first demonstrate that you can do so through edits in areas unrelated to your charity. If you're interested in being a more general contributor, please tell what topics you might edit about in a new request. If you have no other interest here, this is likely the end of the road. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 08:37, 9 May 2025 (UTC) }}
I would add outside of the context of your request that, though understandable, using any random article as a model is a poor idea, as it too could be inappropriate and you would be unaware of that as a new user. There are many ways inappropriate content can get past us. If you want to use other articles as a model or example, use those that are classified as good articles, which have received community vetting. 331dot (talk) 08:37, 9 May 2025 (UTC)
