User talk:Blunham Football Club

Welcome!
Hello, Blunham Football Club, 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 User:Blunham Football Club/sandbox/Blunham Football Club, 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 User:Blunham Football Club/sandbox/Blunham Football Club


A tag has been placed on User:Blunham Football Club/sandbox/Blunham Football Club, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.
 * It appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement of https://sites.google.com/site/blunhamyouthfc/club-history. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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. Drm310 🍁 (talk) 14:33, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

In addition to the matters mentioned above, there's a few other things you need to know about.
 * Wikipedia does not seek to have articles about everything, but only about subjects which satisfy our notability guidelines. Unfortunately there's quite a number of those guidelines, and most of them are quite long, which can make them confusing and intimidating for new editors, but the most important point is given in the general notability guideline, which says that a topic is generally regarded as notable if it has received substantial coverage in multiple reluable sources independent of the subject. I have not searched for coverage of your club, but ordinary local smateur football clubs pretty well never satisfy the notability guidelines.
 * Wikipedia policy requires a user account to be for one editor, acting in their personal capacity, and doesn't allow an account to represent any kind of business, organisation, or group. You should therefore not continue to edit using this account.
 * Don't do any more editing relating to uour football club, or to any other subject to which you have a personal connection, without first reading Wikipedia's guideline on conflict of interest.JBW (talk) 15:04, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
