A tag has been placed on your user page, User:NicksGardenss, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

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.

Contested deletion
This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (your reason here) --NicksGardenss (talk) 17:36, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

Hi.... Im nick from Nicksgardenss.blogspot.com.

Was just trying to create a profile for me which is Nicksgardenss. And im seriously dealing with all that i have written... Is it wrong to write or introduce one's self at wiki... Since i know lot about different plants cultivation and agriculture and normally people from different countries contact me for details...  thought of sharing at wiki... Can see there's so many things that i can add here as I know about plants, herbs, cultivation, growth pattren, climate impact etc.. and there's not even a single topic on any one of those..

Or is it "Nicksgardenss (nick) from India" is a big issue here?

Please be precise which part of intro makes you feel that its marketing... What makes you think and decide its marketing, a  introduction  for one person and not for others.

Hello, NicksGardenss. Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia. I'm sorry, but User:NicksGardenss has been deleted as meeting WP:CSD. "This applies to pages that are exclusively promotional and would need to be fundamentally rewritten to conform with NOTFORPROMOTION." These must be rewritten from scratch from "reliable, third party sources unconnected to the subject." See WP:RS.

Identifying blatant advertising contains information about content to avoid. For more information on content that may be perceived as promotional, click User:Dlohcierekim/promo. These are just rough guides. Pages can avoid all those pitfalls and still be glaringly obvious ad copy. Sometimes pages meeting WP:CSD give the appearance of an editor violating Conflict of interest or WP:PAID. Please read and heed them if they apply to you. Please read FAQ/Organizations.

There is a very common mistake of assuming that the prohibition of promotional editing applies only to promotion for commercial gain, but that is not so.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources that are  unconnected with the subject and providing verifiable information. '''That generally means someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written a great deal about the subject. ''' Please see Wikipedia:Citing sources. Template:cite has templates you can use in citing your sources. Place the template at the bottom of the page, and references cited in the text will appear there.

If you want to try again, please use the Article Wizard or articles for creation to guide you through the creation process. The new user tutorial can help you avoid future problems.

You may find this tool useful: Google custom search Don't feel discouraged. My first attempts at creating articles were deleted too.


 * There is more information at Community portal. There is help available at THE TEAHOUSE. Cheers, and happy editing. -- Dloh cier ekim  (talk) 17:48, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

Reply to your e-mail
Hi Nick, I got your e-mail, thanks. I don't think that we need to communicate through e-mail though - we can discuss directly on your talk page, or on mine. E-mails are usually reserved for material that is too private or sensitive to discuss openly.

The reason I nominated your userpage for deletion was that the page appeared to me to be promoting your website (the name of which matched your username). Our userpages are not for promoting our activities outside of Wikipedia. Saying something like 'My name is Nick, I'm from India, and I am a professional gardener' would be absolutely fine; when you start including links to your website, describing the services you provide there, etc., it starts to look like the userpage is promotional. See WP:UP, and particularly WP:UP for more discussion of this, but it boils down to the fact that our user pages are not there to help us promote our professional services.

I hope that all makes sense. Your account hasn't been blocked - there's nothing stopping you from editing Wikipedia, creating good content, and sharing your expertise with our readers around the world - which is what we're all here for. You just can't use it to promote your professional activities. Cheers Girth Summit  (blether)  18:28, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
