User talk:Projectnicaragua

The page Project Nicaragua has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appeared to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which is unlikely to be suitable for an article (or at best would need a fundamental rewrite). Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

==Speedy deletion nomination of Project nicaragua ‎==

A tag has been placed on Project nicaragua ‎ requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  at the top of the article, immediately below the speedy deletion  tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate), and providing your reasons for contesting on the article's talk page, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

You may want to read the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies.

username
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen (Projectnicaragua) 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. Thank you.

The user name is the name of the organization. If you visit projectnic.org you can confirm this. This article does not contain information that is not verifiable. I can put in more resources to confirm the facts placed in this article. The purpose of this article is not to promote the organization as much as it is meant to provide potential medical providers with easily accessible information about this organization. It is important that people are able to find out what type of outreach US organizations do in Nicaragua, since it is often forgotten even though it is the second poorest country in the hemisphere. I realize that this article can be made better. If this article is deleted I will just try to better and try to publish again. If you decide on deleting this, please tell me how I can write this such that it doesn't seem like this simply self-promotion. Most of the information on the page is written in a neutral tone of voice and is simply meant to inform the reader.


 * As noted above,

You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username.

You'd need to do that first - and then ask for further help. Thanks,  Chzz  ► 14:30, 7 February 2011 (UTC)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. HJ Mitchell &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?   11:16, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
