Speedy deletion nomination of Mind Allies


A tag has been placed on Mind Allies requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. MB 03:14, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

November 2020
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Contest this speedy deletion which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 03:50, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi McMatter,

I apologies for that. I only saw the T&C after which stated for me to not remove that. I will leave this there.

Again sorry for inconvenience Adamafsar (talk) 03:51, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

I have already submitted a content, do I need to submit another? Adamafsar (talk) 03:52, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * no it is still there and the deleting admin should read it before they assess the deletion. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 04:00, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Thank You. I have attached as much as credible sources to my knowledge. I do feel that this article should remain as it brings exposure on the deadly topic and tackles the silent killer we are facing today and can help many people including myself to find the right support when we hit rock bottom.

I do ask that many factors are taken into consideration Adamafsar (talk) 04:05, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * As another note, articles need to have references that are not connected to the subject to prove that it is considered notable for Wikipedia. So if someone else has written about it in detail in a reliable source then you need to use those to help your case that it is worth inclusion in the encyclopedia. We don't include something just because it does good things. Please check WP:ORGDEPTH for more info. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 04:06, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

What about the members such as NSPA? Doesn’t that count? No one could just sign up and write stuff on it. It is a body that is regulated by department of health and is something that they publish on their website along with a bio on the company Adamafsar (talk) 04:13, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Since they are a part of the NSPA it cannot be used to establish notability since it is not independent, has any newspaper or magazine taken time to write about the group? This would be what we would be looking for. A real simple notability check is has anyone outside of the circle of the group noticed and taken the time to publish detailed information about them.

Conflict of Interest
Hello Adamafsar. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely 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 receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, 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:Adamafsar. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. GSS &#x202F;&#128172; 04:20, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

I can confirm this is not a paid work. I am someone who basically received support from the organisation that basically saved my life when I was rock bottom. I was surprised they didn’t have a Wikipedia page as it would help many people. So I decided to create one. It is my first time doing so, so I do apologies if I’m not playing by the books as I am unaware.

However, I most certainly feel if information of mental health organisations like these small ones are out there, then more lives can be saved Adamafsar (talk) 04:28, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

I can’t volunteer or provide any mental health support, but I can help others find support much sooner Adamafsar (talk) 04:29, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Comments
Pinging so they see the message above. Thank you for declaring that you have no conflict of interest, but hat doesn't mean you can write what you like, you must follow the guidance below:


 * you must 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 or company, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, logs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company or organisation claims or interviewing its management. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls. Most of your refs are the organisation or its affiliates, not independent third-party sources.
 * The notability guidelines for organisations and companies have been updated. The primary criteria has five components that must be evaluated separately and independently to determine if it is met:
 * significant coverage in
 * independent,
 * multiple,
 * reliable,
 * secondary sources.
 * Note that an individual source must meet all four criteria to be counted towards notability. You say nothing about number of employees, income or expenditure, or outcomes. it's just what they claim to do.

I can see that this is a worthy organisation and is probably notable, and that it means a lot to you. However, we need real facts rather than what amounts to a fan page sourced to the organisation itself. 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. I hope this helps Jimfbleak - talk to me?  12:09, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * You must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, with verifiable facts, not opinions or reviews. You present what they claim as real facts, but there s no independent assessment to support their claims, and how is going the extra mile to try to save a life a fact
 * There shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for the information. I will wait some time before I look to publish, I will try to gather as much as reliable source, information and will change the tone of the content.

Sorry for inconvenience, thanks for the advice. Is it possible to get the page back but as a draft to work on? Adamafsar (talk) 12:29, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
