Speedy deletion nomination of Mobi.E


A tag has been placed on Mobi.E requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 11:55, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

February 2011
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen (MOBI.E Electric Mobility) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this :
 * 1) It is possible that you have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization.
 * 2) Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guideline to avoid editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations.The article in question is Mobi.E. Thank you. —Bruce1eetalk 12:00, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Helpme request
helpme

helpme I am trying to submit an article about the portuguese electric mobility project but it has been marked for speedy deletion. I don't know why, it is my first wikipedia article could you please help me. I have submitted it on behalf of the project I work for, so I created an account with the name of the project, I can assure that the text is copyright free.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, your account has been blocked; you are welcome to create a new account with a username that represents only you. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline. If your username doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. Thank you. JohnCD (talk) 12:49, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

I need to explain several things: I am afraid this is giving you a lot to read, but it will save time in the end. WP:Your first article is a good introduction, and so is the WP:FAQ/Organizations. Place another "helpme" below here if you need more assistance before setting up a new account. JohnCD (talk) 13:40, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
 * User name: Wikipedia accounts must be for individuals only, who are personally responsible for them, and usernames which are those of groups or organisations are not permitted. For that reason, I have blocked this account, but you are welcome to set up a new, individual one.
 * Copyright: it is not enough to assert that something is copyright-free. For one thing, we have no way to know that someone at the end of a wire is who he says he is; for another, release under Wikipedia's license involves more than just permission to reproduce, so it is essential that the copyright holder understands and agrees - see Copyrights.
 * Neutrality: it is often not worth making a copyright release, because text written for anther purpose may be too promotional in tone, too detailed, or otherwise unsuitable. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a noticeboard. Articles require a neutral point of view.
 * Notability: Wikipedia is selective about article subjects; in particular, it only reports on things that are already established, it is not for announcing new things. The test is called notability, and is not a matter of opinion but has to be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." This requirement applies to good causes too.
 * Conflict of interest: even if you set up a new individual account, if you write about MOBI.E you will have a WP:Conflict of interest. That need not stop you, but you will need to obderve the restrictions explained in WP:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest. In brief: propose the changes or articles you want, and let uninvolved users decide.
