Thanks for stating your WP:COI on your drafts
I had not noticed your COI tag at first, but I see it now, so thanks for keeping that clear. That said, I have concerns about these drafts you're putting out since they don't appear to be sourced to serious news media, but rather to industry newsletters that are just puff-piece announcements rather than critical examinations of the subject. I'll hold judgment for now until other editors can weigh in. MatthewVanitas (talk) 06:26, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Vibe Hotels


A tag has been placed on Draft:Vibe Hotels, 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. Kb.au (talk) 02:34, 26 February 2018 (UTC)

COI
Thank you for declaring your conflict of interestinterest. Note that the correct way, as required required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use is to disclose your employer, client and affiliation on your page at User:. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:   . Please post in that form.

Note that such a declaration does not give you licence to promote your hotels. 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
 * You must make it clear how the topic meets the notability guidelines.
 * 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 complete the COI declaration above

Adina Apartment Hotels‎
Your recent edits violate WP:COI. If you would like to suggest changes to the article, please do so at Talk:Adina Apartment Hotels. I saved the article from deletion because I find the topic interesting, and not out of any approval for your conduct: you should not have moved it into article space, and you should definitely not be editing it now. You were given a very clear description of the rules around conflict of interest editing above, but are ignoring this, which comes across as displaying further contempt for the volunteer community here. You will be blocked from editing if this continues. Nick-D (talk) 07:22, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I note that you haven't bothered to declare your conflict of interest when starting Draft:TFE Hotels either. I'm going to block your account. Nick-D (talk) 07:26, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for consistent violations of WP:COI despite clear explanations of this and warnings.. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.

I would consider unblocking you if you agree to take a topic ban from hotels, broadly construed. That means you would be able to edit Wikipedia, but if you made any edits about hotels anywhere, including putting a reference to one in an article about a town or city (that's what "broadly construed" means), you would be reblocked. What other articles you would like to write about if unblocked. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  23:24, 12 July 2018 (UTC)


 * The reason that I am requesting to be unlocked is that so I can specifically create a Wikipedia page on the topic of hotels. I work for a hotel group and have been requested to create Wikipedia pages for those hotels. What are my options if I am not unblocked? JohnThePiper (talk) 01:17, 13 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Your employer, and yourself, appear to not understand the purpose of Wikipedia. We are not a venue for TFE to promote itself. Please tell your boss this isn't going to work. Nick-D (talk) 03:31, 14 July 2018 (UTC)
