Hello, I'm DoubleGrazing. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:12, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Elihost.com


A tag has been placed on Draft:Elihost.com, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:12, 8 June 2024 (UTC)


 * The article was written with total objectivity. I don't understand why my article is consider to be prmotional whereas a similar article like this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluehost is not.
 * That is a real lack of objectivity. Davidh19 (talk) 09:31, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
 * That's because your draft not only read like an online brochure, it didn't cite a single source (unlike the Bluehost article, which has 16 citations; not all of them great, but still). Wikipedia articles should be compiled by summarising what independent and reliable secondary sources have said about a subject. We have no interest in what the subject wants to say about itself. That is just pure promotion. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:39, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
 * The article has been entirely rewritten, this time heavily based on external sources. I trust that this will resolve the objectivity issue. Davidh19 (talk) 11:50, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Davidh19. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the edit COI template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see );
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see );
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:39, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

AfC notification: Draft:Elihost.com has a new comment
 I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Elihost.com. Thanks! Ratnahastin (talk) 12:01, 8 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi Ratnahastin, I removed the external links which is what you indicated and when I tried to save the changes I got blocked. Can you please help? Davidh19 (talk) 12:26, 8 June 2024 (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 unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page:. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 12:14, 8 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Hello Jimfbleak,
 * To be honest I don't know why I have been blocked neither what is Wikipedia understanding for "objectivity". The last version of the article was based on 4 independent sources. The blocking was completely unfair and unjustified. Davidh19 (talk) 18:22, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
