Welcome!
Hello, Clausen House 2015, 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 Draft:Clausen House, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy. It also appears that your account is intended to be used for the purpose of telling the world about an organization, person or cause that you consider worthwhile. Unfortunately, many good causes are not sufficiently notable for their own Wikipedia article, and all users are discouraged from editing in any area where they have an inherent conflict of interest. You may wish to consider one of these alternative outlets. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. Thank you. JohnCD (talk) 14:13, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of "Draft:Clausen House"
Draft:Clausen House, a page you created, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is obvious advertising or promotional material..

You are welcome to contribute content that complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. Optakeover (Talk)  14:15, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

Copyright and notability
I have deleted your draft page for the reason given above, and also because it was a copyright violation from the organization's website. Wikipedia cannot host copyright material, not even in draft pages, without a formal copyright release from the actual copyright holder. Assertion of permission to use material is not enough.

It is very seldom worth making a copyright release because, as in this case, organizations' websites are usually written to promote, and so have a tone quite unsuitable for an encyclopedia article, which requires a WP:Neutral point of view. For more background, see User:JohnCD/Not a noticeboard.

Wikipedia has an inclusion test called notability, which is not a matter of opinion but has to be demonstrated by references showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." See also Notability (summary) and Wikipedia is not here to tell the world about your noble cause.

If you set up an individual account and still wish to write about your organization, please read the guideline Conflict of interest and the Plain and simple conflict of interest guide. JohnCD (talk) 14:34, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
