Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Business Energy Quotes


A tag has been placed on Draft:Business Energy Quotes, 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. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 22:00, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing. Additionally, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block. To do so, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the text at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page.

What is your connection to the GPG or how did you come to write about it? 331dot (talk) 08:27, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

I am not connected to GPG, I am not employed by GPG. I have two friends who have previously completed work experience at GPG but have since moved on. NGPLTD (talk) 08:31, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
 * So you wrote about the website as a university project or assignment? It was sourced to nothing but press releases and other routine business announcements, which do not establish that the website meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable website.  I suspect it is too soon for an article about this new website. 331dot (talk) 08:41, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Effectively, yes. I am working on building a bank of unique content as I look into employment as an aspiring journalist. Please do not delete this page as much research has gone into it. Please allow me to change my username, and make revisions to this page as more references come out over the next few months. I do intend to add more pages in future to develop my writing. I fully intend to implement the feedback provided going forward.NGPLTD (talk) 08:51, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I have changed your username from NGPLTD. I would note that journalistic writing is very different from the writing style of a Wikipedia article; whereas the news/media tells about something firsthand, Wikipedia articles summarize (in essence) what the news and other reliable sources state and not firsthand information(like press releases, staff interviews, or other routine announcements).  do you have any comment? 331dot (talk) 09:04, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you kindly. I will ensure to that I conduct more through Literature Reviews going forward. Am I able to continue revising the article I created, using your feedback to make changes?Mra516 (talk) 09:10, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the ping, . Mra516, can you explain why, if you have no connection to GPG, you chose as your username the website of Northern Gas and Power? According to the text you wrote, "GPG trades in the UK as Northern Gas and Power, an award-winning UK energy consultancy" [sic]. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 11:35, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for getting in touch . I initially thought each article needed an individual username/account. The research I did was initially going to result in an NGP LTD page, but this proved to be too difficult. I then decided to write a page on "Business Energy Quotes" under the same username as they are a subsidiary. Having had the feedback, I am now more aware of the guidelines around publishing, and I wholly apologise for any errors. I would like to continue editing as I have found the research and writing experience quite enjoyable. I am looking to write more articles if the opportunity allows. Once again, I must reiterate, I am not employed by GPG or any of its subsidiaries. Thanks. Mra516 (talk) 12:09, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, I'm sorry, but I don't find that convincing. No objection to anyone else unblocking if they judge it differently. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 10:01, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
