Speedy deletion of Ivan Lindsay
A tag has been placed on Ivan Lindsay 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 person or group of people, but it does not 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. Bongo matic  12:01, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Ellington darden


A tag has been placed on Ellington darden, 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 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. Daiyusha (talk) 18:55, 19 September 2019 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did on Ivan Lindsay. This violates Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. You continue to add back material that is patently NOT supported by your sources, please stop. Theroadislong (talk) 20:14, 25 September 2019 (UTC)

Other people's input
There are a number of avenues for getting other people's input as you do not value mine, you can request help at WP:The Teahouse which is possibly the best venue or Requests for comment or Third opinion. All good wishes. Theroadislong (talk) 15:00, 26 September 2019 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Agnesgerlach. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Ivan Lindsay, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 09:28, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Wkipedia links
I note you have added more content to the Ivan Lindsay article, that's great, but you have used full url links instead of wiki links for example [|Eton College] instead of Eton College. You have also not responded to the conflict of interest question raised by a number of editors. Theroadislong (talk) 16:33, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

September 2019
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Ivan Lindsay. Theroadislong (talk) 20:28, 29 September 2019 (UTC)

Interviews as refs
Interviews as references are not considered reliable sources because the person being interviewed is making statements about themself. Neither the content nor the fact that they were interviewed counts toward establishing Wikipedia's concept of notability. This is standard practice for all articles about people.

This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. -Liancetalk/contribs 22:02, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
