Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Mimi Clothing


A tag has been placed on Draft:Mimi Clothing, 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.  DGG ( talk ) 06:06, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Pjm01511. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Jimfbleak - talk to me?  06:53, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

Help with creating page?
I understand why the page might not be published but did it need to be deleted. Could it not have just been edited or declined until amendments where made. It was difficult to write the page in a way that would not come across as advertising. Can it not be amended rather than deleted? Pjm01511 (talk) 08:36, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
 * First, you should respond to the COI questions above.
 * Second, when you write the draft based on summarizing what independent references say about the subject, you are much more likely to come up with neutral text that can be accepted as an article.
 * You'll probably find it to be useful to spend considerable time improving existing articles before attempting to create a new page. Although it may seem counter-intuitive, that's generally a faster way to creating your first article than banging your head on one of the most difficult tasks you can try on Wikipedia.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 09:04, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
