A tag has been placed on Draft:National Apprentice Day, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Your question about your draft
Hello,

How is creating a page for a non-profit considered advertising/promotion? Did I write it poorly? I tried to make it factual and discuss how this program works. Are non-profit organizations not allowed to be listed? I included a third-party source which was the Register-Herald (a newspaper out of Beckley, WV)

We have more sources:

WVVA News (Beckley, Bluefield WV): http://www.wvva.com/story/35356565/high-school-students-visit-o-school-for-apprentice-day Alleghany Mountain Radio (Dunmore, WV): https://www.alleghenymountainradio.org/national-apprentice-day-connecting-youth-to-their-dream-jobs/ Front page of WV Daily News: http://wvdailynews.net/3860-the-greenbrier-hosted-over-30-students-for-apprentice-day-program Front page of Mountain Messenger (Lewisburg, WV): https://mountainmessenger.com/students-learn-government-during-apprentice-day-with-sen-baldwin/ WVNSTV (Beckley, WV): 1. http://www.wvnstv.com/archives/carnegie-hall-hosts-apprentice-day-for-high-school-student/840292578 2. http://www.wvnstv.com/archives/apprentice-day-program-gets-a-taste-of-jobs-at-the-greenbrier-resort/840292363 3. http://www.wvnstv.com/local-news/greenbrier-county/the-greenbrier-hosts-apprentice-day/963813750 HashtagWV (Lewisburg, WV) http://hashtagwv.com/do-your-dream-job-w-national-apprentice-day-a-free-year-round-apprenticeship-program/

Please let me know. I will change anything needed. Thank you. - Christina Entenmann.


 * Hello, the draft page is not a good lcoation to ask questions about writing the draft. Thus I've moved your question here. In reply, there are several issues here. First of all, please review the policy on conflicts of interest, partiularly the disclosure requirements for paid editors at WP:COIPAYDISCLOSE.
 * Everything can be advertised, certainly a non-profit. The tone of the draft was not neutral and went so far in praising the organization's work that I doubt it remained factually accurate. The large list of external links to commercial sites that didn't provide any information of relevance to the subject of the draft didn't help either.
 * More sources probably couldn't hurt, though all of those look like local news to me; something more substantial would be better. The lack of sources, however, wasn't the problem. Huon (talk) 21:50, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
