Speedy deletion nomination of Wright Manufacturing, Inc.


A tag has been placed on Wright Manufacturing, Inc., 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 removed 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. Vasemmistolainen (talk) 23:39, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Wright Manufacturing, Inc., you may be blocked from editing. Vasemmistolainen (talk) 23:41, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

Hello, Eright. Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia. I'm sorry, but Wright Manufacturing, Inc. has been deleted as meeting WP:CSD. "This applies to pages that are exclusively promotional and would need to be fundamentally rewritten to conform with NOTFORPROMOTION." These must be rewritten from scratch from "reliable, third party sources unconnected to the subject." See WP:RS.

Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Users who do so may be blocked from editing. Promotional content is vigorously deleted. For more information on content that may be perceived as promotional, click User:Dlohcierekim/promo.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources providing verifiable information. '''That generally means someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written a great deal about the subject. ''' Please see Wikipedia:Citing sources. Template:cite has templates you can use in citing your sources. Place the template at the bottom of the page, and references cited in the text will appear there. YOU CAN ASK FOR HELP AT THE TEAHOUSE

Any deficiencies should be remedied before reposting as they can lead to repeated deletions. Wikipedia is not a webhost. You may wish to consider alternative outlets.

If you want to try again, please use the Article Wizard or articles for creation to guide you through the creation process.

You may find this tool useful: Google custom search Don't feel discouraged. My first attempts at creating articles were deleted too. Dlohcierekim (talk) 00:49, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

Wright Manufacturing, Inc revisited
Please read the deletion notice I left earlier. You must write in only objective prose. Not promo-speak. All information must be from reliable sources not connected with the subject. I see you've recreated on your sandbox. Looks great for a corporate web page. Mostly not appropriate in an encyclopedia article. Please remove any information not reliably sourced. Please be mindful of the information linked in the above deletion notice. Please do not copy paste move this into article space. Thanks, Dlohcierekim (talk) 19:12, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

Hi and thanks for your message on my talk page. I didn't delete your page, however as above, I did nominate it for speedy deletion because it seemed to me to be advertising/promotional, and the administrator who deleted it obviously agreed. I'm sorry if this has discouraged you. Sandboxes are there for you to work on things over time, however wikipedia does not allow advertising and promotion, so you still need to be careful about writing neutrally, not including links to websites within the main text and not writing in a style that would be more appropriate for a company's own website rather than an encyclopedia, as those are the kinds of things that make a page look like it is advertising, which can lead to its deletion at any time. I hope that helps. Cheers, Melcous (talk) 23:09, 27 October 2017 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:WrightMowersZK.png
Thanks for uploading File:WrightMowersZK.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log].

COI
You have an obvious conflict of interest and you must declare it. If you work directly or indirectly for an organisation, or otherwise are acting on its behalf, you are very strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. If you are paid directly or indirectly by the organisation you are writing about, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:   . If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message.

Also read the following regarding writing an article
 * you must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the organisation, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the organisation claims or interviewing its management. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls
 * The notability guidelines for organisations and companies have been updated. The primary criteria has five components that must be evaluated separately and independently to determine if it is met:
 * significant coverage in
 * independent,
 * multiple,
 * reliable,
 * secondary sources.
 * Note that an individual source must meet all four criteria to be counted towards notability.


 * you must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic.
 * there shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections.
 * you must not copy text from elsewhere. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. We require that text posted here can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose, including commercial; text is considered to be copyright unless explicitly stated otherwise. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient.

Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Also read Your first article. You must also reply to the COI request above Jimfbleak - talk to me?  18:00, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your message and for declaring your COI. Please note that although declaring a COI is a mandatory requirement, it does not, of course mean that you can write what you like. I deleted your article because
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the company, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company claims or interviewing its management. You gave some references, but they were not independent third-party sources. For example, although The Washington Post and the Presidential archives could be reliable sources, in this case they are both effectively reporting what your boss says, not independent analysis. Most of the other refs are similar.
 * The notability guidelines for organisations and companies have been updated. The primary criteria has five components that must be evaluated separately and independently to determine if it is met:
 * significant coverage in
 * independent,
 * multiple,
 * reliable,
 * secondary sources.
 * Note that an individual source must meet all four criteria to be counted towards notability, which is why the Washington Post can't be used in this case. the rules were tightened up to reduce company spamming, and many articles previously accepted would not pass now. Note that patents are rarely acceptable as sources, since they are written by the company, and shouldn't be linked from within text. Also, to help show notability you need hard verifiable facts such as the number of employees, turnover or profit


 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced or self-sourced claims presented as fact include: a global manufacturer... has been revolutionary... adopted by industry leaders across the globe... emphasizes Lean manufacturing principles to reduce waste. &mdash; the problem with using company approved text is that it's bound to be a promo.

I gave you a warning (I see you had been warned before) because although I'm prepared to AGF for now, you need to be aware that at some stage, if you don't get this right, you could be blocked as an advertising-only account or WP:Not here.

Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Also read this important guidance. Jimfbleak - talk to me?  06:06, 6 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Hi, just to pick up a couple of things Sources not acceptable include those linked to your company, press releases, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company claims or interviewing its management. are not direct policy quotes, they are guidance based on experience. Even if people know that you can't normally use company sources directly, they don't necessarily realise that you can't use Facebook, blogs or IMDB


 * In the notability guidelines, it's clear that the existence of a patent isn't itself significant, although the invention it describes may be. In that case it needs an independent reference that makes that clear. Even if a patent was acceptable, it should be formulated as reference, not an in-text direct link. I think you might misunderstand why you are described as a paid editor. It doesn't mean that you have been separately paid for this contribution it means that you have a financial interest because you are employed either directly by the company or by another business acting on your company's behalf.


 * Although major newspapers are often acceptable, I think the experienced deletion nominator and I both have doubts about whether an article which is largely just quoting your boss is truly independent reporting. I accept that it's OK for uncontroversial facts like the number of employees, but although you give the figure in the infobox, it's not actually stated in the body of the text, nor referenced.


 * I think we could be forgiven for assuming that it's company-approved text when there are two massive OTRS disclaimers saying that the text has been released by the company, they state An email containing details of the permission for this text has been sent in accordance with WP:OTRS., if it's your own words, you don't need those. On a related issue, I see that OTRS permission has not been accepted for your images eg File:WrightMowers OutsideLineup.jpg because the email did not make it clear that they can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose including commercial. That's a requirement for posting images here, so you need to either fix the permission by a second OTRS email, remove the images, or take your own pictures which you can then release under a suitable licence

I'd accept that this version was better than the first, but it still needs work to make it acceptable Jimfbleak - talk to me?  06:27, 8 July 2018 (UTC)


 * I'd accept that your second draft
