User talk:Dkarga

Welcome!
Hello, Warestack, 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:Warestack/sandbox, 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:Warestack/sandbox


A tag has been placed on your user page, User:Warestack/sandbox, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

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. Annh07 (talk) 10:43, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

 Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because your account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. Also, your username gives the impression that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must: To do this, post the text  at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked.
 * Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
 * Provide a new username.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text  at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. Cabayi (talk) 11:16, 7 September 2023 (UTC)


 * @Warestack, I received an email from you with a request to unblock. However this is a mistake, I am an editor and not an administrator, my job is to contribute and improve articles as well as revert edits that violate Wikipedia policy. I do not have the right to block or unblock you, only administrators have that right. What you wrote in your email to me you can post right here for the admins to review, follow the instructions above. Annh07 (talk) 15:00, 13 September 2023 (UTC)

I have renamed this account, which resolves that aspect of the block. You say that you mistakenly created this account despite your intention to use your personal account- what is your personal account? 331dot (talk) 09:12, 14 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Thank you for renaming this account. My personal account is "Dkargatzis." I would like to request that one of these accounts be permanently deleted or "vanished" in accordance with Wikipedia's guidelines. I have no intention of using both accounts simultaneously and want to comply fully with Wikipedia's policies. Dkarga (talk) 10:28, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
 * There is no means of deleting an account, and blocked accounts are not vanished, just abandon it and never use it again. I would say regarding your proposed topic areas that "startups" almost never merit articles; a business must be established and recognized in its field by independent reliable sources to merit an article here- most coverage of startups is about routine activities, like the raising of capital or commencement of operations.  It's also going to be difficult for you to edit about at least some technology related topics as that is your business. Is there anything else you might edit about? 331dot (talk) 10:35, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your prompt response and for clarifying Wikipedia's policies on account deletion and content notability. I understand now that startups, including my own, are generally not considered notable enough for Wikipedia articles unless they have significant coverage from independent, reliable sources.
 * Thank you for your time and guidance. Dkarga (talk) 10:40, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
 * So what else might you edit about? 331dot (talk) 10:55, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Given my interests and expertise outside of my business, I am considering contributing to topics such as Virtualization Technology, DevOps Practices and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). I hope this provides a clearer idea of how I intend to contribute constructively to Wikipedia. Dkarga (talk) 11:49, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
