User talk:JMFranklin

Welcome!
Hello, JMFranklin, 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:Ryan Beat, 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 Draft:Ryan Beat


A tag has been placed on Draft:Ryan Beat, 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. -- Asartea   Talk  &#124;  Contribs  09:04, 13 June 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Deb. 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.Deb (talk) 12:50, 13 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Hi. Normally a new user would begin by practising using Wikipedia by making small edits and thus develop the skills necessary to create an article that won't get deleted. I would recommend you do that. There is plenty of help available at Teahouse if you hit any snags. I don't restore promotional content, but there are other administrators who may be willing to do so. Make sure you check out Notability and Neutral point of view first. Deb (talk) 13:29, 13 June 2021 (UTC)

So, can you please clarify for me why my article was deleted? Was it because there was mention of sponsors? Are you allowed to mention corporate names when they are a part of a series? For example: Lucas Oil Off Road Racing ([].


 * For a start, you should not put any external links into the text. You can't use other Wikipedia articles as a reference. Nearly all your sources are actually the same one: "LOORRS Event Results". Several of your paragraphs are unreferenced. Many of your statements sound like personal opinion and are written in non-neutral language, e.g. "At just 28 years old, Beat started his own LOORRS team in 2015 ..." A lot of it is written in a kind of "journalese". Read Writing better articles if you want to get the tone right. Deb (talk) 13:46, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
