Speedy deletion nomination of User:EuropeanSocialNetwork/sandbox/European Social Network (ESN)


A tag has been placed on your user page, User:EuropeanSocialNetwork/sandbox/European Social Network (ESN), 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 blatant advertising which only promotes or publicises a company, product, group or service, and which 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. 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 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 deleting administrator.

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 or request a change of username. 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 at the bottom of your talk page. 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 at the bottom of your talk page. Thank you. JohnCD (talk) 15:17, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

I have blocked this account because Wikipedia accounts are for individuals only, who are personally responsible for them, and accounts whose names are the names of companies or groups are not permitted. Your username may be based on your real name, or not, as you choose (see WP:REALNAME for some considerations), but it should not be the name of any other living person. A username of the form "James at ESN" would be acceptable, and would serve to declare your affiliation.

Even with an individual username, in any editing to do with ESN you would have, from Wikipedia's point of view, a Conflict of interest, and should carefully read that guideline and the Plain and simple conflict of interest guide. In brief, you should not edit directly, but may make suggestions on the article talk page or submit a draft via WP:Articles for creation. Note that you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use ("Paid contributions without disclosure" under section 4) to disclose your interest in any edits where you have a COI. The COI rules apply to non-profits and "good causes" as well as to commercial organizations.

Wikipedia is quite selective about subjects for articles. The test for inclusion is called Notability, and 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). If you submit a draft article, it should be based mainly on what those independent sources say, rather than simply listing the organization's aims, mission, beliefs etc: Wikipedia is not a place for organizations to tell the world about themselves.
