User talk:BasingstokeSportsTrust

October 2014
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "BasingstokeSportsTrust", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because It's an organization. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account for editing. I'm not reporting you seeing as you've not advertised yourselves, I would strongly advise you change your username to something more suitable, Cheers,  – Davey 2010 •  (talk)  15:28, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Basingstoke Sports Centre
Hello BasingstokeSportsTrust,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Basingstoke Sports Centre for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. LS1979 (talk) 15:51, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

Additionally, your username becomes a little more problematic if it's associated with a promotional edit because it looks like you're only here to advertise yourselves (or others) rather than contribute encyclopaedic content. Notability guidelines dictate that each article needs to have sources proving that an organisation has been discussed significantly by neutral media; most shops/businesses in Basingstoke will not be notable unless part of a wider chain or fulfill some other of the relevant notability criteria.

If the trust itself is significant and fulfills the above notability criteria, then you are invited to change your username to ensure it represents the individual contributing and use Articles for Creation to draft an article on yourselves so other editors can assist with its development.
