Speedy deletion nomination of User:BFQ Law/sandbox


A tag has been placed on User:BFQ Law/sandbox, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

 * I am brand new to Wikipedia. I was tasked with creating a Wiki page for my job. I watched the videos, but I'm still extremally confused. BFQ Law (talk) 16:45, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

 * Wikipedia is not LinkedIn. You can't make a "page for your job". We write articles on notable topics. Those may include law firms--but they should be encyclopedic articles with reliable secondary sources. And no, you can not use the name of the law firm as an account name.

 * Wow good to know. Go ahead and delete the page. Doesn't seem like I'm wanted here. BFQ Law (talk) 17:19, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
 * We welcome individual contributors, but we do not want them editing when they have a conflict of interest with their subject matter. You should also inform your superiors that they placed upon you an expectation that was unreasonable and doomed to fail from the beginning... see When your boss tells you to edit Wikipedia.
 * Wikipedia is not a business directory, so a company is not entitled to have a Wikipedia article just because it exists. All topics must be notable by Wikipedia's definition to merit inclusion. In the specific case of a company, it must meet the notability criteria for companies and organizations. For this to happen, the company must have already received significant coverage in multiple reliable and independent sources. We have no interest in what a company wishes to say about itself, as this is an inherent conflict of interest. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 18:18, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
