Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:UK Coffee Week


A tag has been placed on Draft:UK Coffee Week, 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.  Spencer T• C 09:15, 19 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi Spencer, first off I would like to apologize if any of my messages came off as rude. I didn't know Wiki actually have people answering messages and such. I'm an intern for a nonprofit and this is my first time trying to make a wiki page and I didn't realize that even drafts can be public.
 * After reading the guidelines policy and the blocking policy I fully understand why my account is blocked. I truly didn't mean any malicious intent with the wiki page. I also know that I used a lot of copy and paste. That's because I wrote the script for the article in a word doc so I wouldn't lose it if I messed up and it erased all of it. I also rechanged my name to something less corporationy.
 * My company is also a charity and the page is about UK Coffee Week and Project Waterfall with just information about what it is and such. I have no intentions to make a biased page for a company. The pages are about a week long charity with coffee shops and consumers to raise money for project waterfall which is a program to bring clean water and education to rural communities in Africa and South America. The pages will be factual with actual information from independent sources. I have all the research and everything with sources. My company doesn't have a wiki page about them. They just wanted these pages because coffee and water play a huge role in society and communities that grow the coffee beans don't have the resources to clean drinking water, hygienic products, and education. I'm not trying to push a biased opinion of the company, I'm just trying to put the facts so others can also become interested in the subject.
 * I may be a college student but my coding and computer skills are a little better than a cavemans.

 * As an intern, the Wikipedia Terms of Use require you to make a formal paid editing disclosure. This is the case even if the internship is unpaid, as you are compensated with the experience of the work. I wish you luck with the good work your organization is doing, but Wikipedia is not for telling the world about it. "I'm just trying to put the facts so others can also become interested in the subject" is the definition of promotion on Wikipedia. 331dot (talk) 13:42, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
 * You may make another unblock request for someone else to review. As I said above, only a single open request is needed at a time(not separate ones).331dot (talk) 13:55, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
