Hello, Blakecoryre. Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia. I'm sorry, but a page you created User:Blakecoryre has been deleted as meeting one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects of articles must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources which are unconnected with the subject  and which provide verifiable information. Someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written a great deal about the subject. Please see WP:CORP for subjects that are groups or companies or organizations. Please see WP:ANYBIO for subjects who are people. Please see Common sourcing mistakes (notability). The Wikipedia Adventure is a useful tutorial.

Also, encyclopedia articles must be neutral in tone and not use language that promotes or advocates for a subject, or tries to cast the subject in a favorable light. Please see Information on content and common pitfalls to avoid here and here. Sometimes creators of promotional/advocational content are bewildered that it is considered such. If one has been trained to write such content, or if one has spent some time writing such content, one may simply be blind to non-neutral phrases or styles.

A common assumption is that the prohibition against promotional editing applies only to businesses or organizations. Anything can be promoted, including a person, a non-commercial organization, a point of view, etc.

CV's/resumé's are by their nature promotional. Writing about oneself or any connected subject is discouraged as the connection can make objectivity difficult. Information on avoiding advocational content and common pitfalls is  here and here, however be aware that these are not exhaustive.

New article creation can be difficult, but the Article Wizard can help you. The new user tutorial can help you avoid future problems. You can also ask for help at the TEAHOUSE  and on IRC chat, as well as WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk  Sometimes it is better to first gain experience by fixing and helping maintain existing articles. Community portal/Opentask contains links to things that badly need doing, if you are so inclined.

User pages and User talk pages are intended only to assist collegiality among users. They are not to be used as a soapbox for writings not connected with the editorial process on Wikipedia. While we appreciate that you enjoy using Wikipedia, please note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and Nor are user pages intended to host articles, CV's/resumés or lengthy autobiographies. Wikipedia is not a promotional venue or a place to post ads. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia ~ subjects of articles must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources which are unconnected with the subject and which provide verifiable information. For article creation, Please use WP:AfC and/or request help at the TEAHOUSE. You can also seek help via IRC chat.

 * I still contest. I would like a reason and not some standard copy and paste reason Blakecoryre (talk) 12:25, 7 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Don't abuse Wikipedia to promote yourself and your business.  Acroterion   (talk)   13:45, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions; however, it appears you may have written a Wikipedia article, or a draft for a Wikipedia article, about yourself. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – please see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to or change an existing article about yourself, you are welcome to propose the changes by visiting the article's talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was the page I created deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss this with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

 * It is not an autobiography I am not Blake. But I appreciate the feedback. Will work on it. Blakecoryre (talk) 13:46, 7 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Then don't abuse Wikipedia to promote Blake or Blake's business.  Acroterion   (talk)   13:50, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I appreciate your reply. It was in no way intended to be a promotion. I copied the format from another influential real estate industry leader. There was nothing in it that promoted a business. I see how it came across more as an autobiography but there was no promotion. So i don't agree with that comment. Blakecoryre (talk) 13:54, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Which article? If it's written like this one was, it needs to be deleted as spam, or if they meed notability guidelines it needs to be re-written. Wikipedia does not accept advertising.  Acroterion   (talk)   14:00, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Ryan Serhant Blakecoryre (talk) 14:01, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * He's notable, he has a TV show and has been for a long time, and while the article has a promotional tinge, it's written formally and not completely promotionally. It's not ideal, but it's not advertising, as yours was. I don;' know why you think that an article that's tagged for promotional language is a good model, and then made it even more promotional. And you are clearly editing in violations of the terms and conditions of this website with an undeclared COI. That's blockable right there.   Acroterion   (talk)   14:11, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Honestly I have no idea what that even means for undeclared COI. I have repeatedly said I am learning in this process. I respect that you said I violated the rules but you are genuinely bullying me at this point. I am going to the continue being the bigger person. Thank you for your very degrading messages. As far as Ryan Serhants notability I know who he is. It's exactly why I used that to write I wrote. I just changed the facts. I don't see how his is any less promotional than what I edited.  Blakecoryre (talk) 14:16, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

 You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because your account is being used only for advertising or promotion. If you think there are good reasons for being unbloc and is tagged as suchked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.

 * I appreciate the true reason of wikipedia being brought to my attention. It was in no way intended to be a promotion. I copied the format and is tahhed for revision another influential real estate industry leader. There was nothing in it that promoted a business. I see how it came across more as an autobiography but there was 100 hundred percent no promotion. So I don't agree with the blocking. I think this is a learning opportunity for me but to be blocked for the reason of promoting something where there never was a promotion is unreasonable. I believe the user who blocked me didn't appreciate me asking questions where I was just trying to learn about the platform. Very unprofessional to be honest.

 * We're volunteers, and we're not here to help people advertise, or or to assist those who have an undeclared conflict of interest in violations of the terms of this project to abuse the encyclopedia for their own or their employers's purposes. So you're blocked.  Acroterion   (talk)   14:03, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
