Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. Alexf(talk) 16:17, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

Contested deletion
This page should not be speedily deleted because (your reason here) --Maringolub (talk) 12:33, 11 April 2024 (UTC)


 * It seems to be about yourself. Read WP:SELFPROMOTE. TheGreatestLuvofAll (talk) 12:36, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

it just talks about a person and cool stuff about that person
 * We call that promotion.&#45;- Deepfriedokra (talk) 13:04, 11 April 2024 (UTC)


 * then what is considered "not promotion", wiki page about elon musk also has mentions such as paypal or twitter and other businesses Maringolub (talk) 13:27, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
 * The problem is the overall tone, not just the social media links. Also, as I mention in the deletion notice, user pages are not for article creation. Also, the content was wholly unsourced. Please see the deletion notice for sourcing and inclusion requirements for articles in this encyclopedia. Thanks &#45;- Deepfriedokra (talk) 13:39, 11 April 2024 (UTC)



Hello, Maringolub. Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia. I'm sorry, but a page you created User:Maringolub has been deleted as meeting one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects of articles must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources which are unconnected with the subject  and which provide verifiable information. Someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written a great deal about the subject. Please see WP:CORP for subjects that are groups or companies or organizations. Please see WP:ANYBIO for subjects who are people. Please see Common sourcing mistakes (notability). The Wikipedia Adventure is a useful tutorial.

Also, encyclopedia articles must be neutral in tone and not use language that promotes or advocates for a subject, or tries to cast the subject in a favorable light. Please see Information on content and common pitfalls to avoid here and here. Sometimes creators of promotional/advocational content are bewildered that it is considered such. If one has been trained to write such content, or if one has spent some time writing such content, one may simply be blind to non-neutral phrases or styles.

A common assumption is that the prohibition against promotional editing applies only to businesses or organizations. Anything can be promoted, including a person, a non-commercial organization, a point of view, etc.

CV's/resumé's are by their nature promotional. Writing about oneself or any connected subject is discouraged as the connection can make objectivity difficult. Information on avoiding advocational content and common pitfalls is  here and here, however be aware that these are not exhaustive.

New article creation can be difficult, but the Article Wizard can help you. The new user tutorial can help you avoid future problems. You can seek help IRC chat, as well as WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk Sometimes it is better to first gain experience by fixing and helping maintain existing articles. Community portal/Opentask contains links to things that badly need doing, if you are so inclined.

User pages and User talk pages are intended only to assist collegiality among users. They are not to be used as a soapbox for writings not connected with the editorial process on Wikipedia. While we appreciate that you enjoy using Wikipedia, please note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and Nor are user pages intended to host articles, CV's/resumés or lengthy autobiographies. Wikipedia is not a promotional venue or a place to post ads. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia ~ subjects of articles must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources which are unconnected with the subject and which provide verifiable information. For article creation, Please use WP:AfC and/or request help at the WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk. You can also seek help via IRC chat.
