User talk:Bar to Bar

Welcome!
Hello, Bar to Bar, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Rentec Direct, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

Speedy deletion nomination of Rentec Direct


A tag has been placed on Rentec Direct, 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.  Onel 5969  TT me 11:57, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Rentec Direct


The article Rentec Direct has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Fails WP:NCORP. All sourcing is press releases. No independent coverage."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

You can't say that all are press releases, I removed them now, and all awards are authentic and verifiable. Also, an admin declined the delete, if there was a problem the admin would have showed concerned. I respect your views but an admin surely know better than us. Also, I read WP:GNG it surely passes the criteria. Bar to Bar (talk) 19:51, 15 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Admins are not superusers. Theu hold no special editorial powers. The Speedy Deletion was reviewed and found not to be requiring immediate deletion. That does it mean it is a notable article suitable for Wikipedia. The awards are all useless and will be removed. If the only source for an award is the press release announcing the award, it's an irrelevant award. The article still lacks any in-depth independent sourcing to meet WP:GNG, but really WP:NCORP] Slywriter (talk) 14:39, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
 * It has received not just one, but five Stevie Awards, which Wikipedia does consider notable, as in general an award which is listed with it's own Wikipedia article is considered notable Awards_and_accolades. The 5 awards, plus the SOREDI article. So in your views Stevie awards useless?
 * 2021 Company of the Year: https://stevieawards.com/aba/rentec-direct-company-year-0
 * 2021 Entrepreneur of the Year: https://stevieawards.com/aba/rentec-direct-entrepreneur-year
 * 2022 company awards, they just list them here: https://stevieawards.com/aba/company-organization-awards-1
 * 2022 customer service: https://stevieawards.com/aba/customer-service-awards-2
 * A lot of things have no in-depth coverage but they are notable in their niche. Bar to Bar (talk) 18:29, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
 * And I thought admins like @Bbb23 also know and decide but I wasn't aware of back to back deletion attempts by other users. And you also removed INC stats I saw INC is mentioned a lot of times on Wikipedia Bar to Bar (talk) 18:38, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I'd focus on finding sources that cover the subject in-depth. That is the core of notability. Awards that nobody else is writing about are meaningles. Poor articles exist all over Wikipedia and are usually not a reliable indicator. Slywriter (talk) 18:49, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Bar to Bar. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Rentec Direct, 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, colleagues, company, organization, clients, 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 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. Please clarify your relationship as your continued addition of purely promotional and connected sources is problematic. Slywriter (talk) 01:24, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
