User talk:Publisa

March 2020
Hello Publisa. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Publisa. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. Praxidicae (talk) 10:36, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Donegal Sport Hub


The article Donegal Sport Hub has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Unremarkable website which has so few visitors it doesn't have a rating with Alexa or similar site/traffic reporting tools. Nothing to indicate that WP:GNG or WP:WEBSITE is met. The refs and coverage offered are trivial/passing mentions at best."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

As previously advised, your edits give the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. You were asked to cease editing until you responded by either stating that you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits, or by complying with the mandatory requirements under the Wikimedia Terms of Use that you disclose your employer, client and affiliation. Again, you can post such a disclosure on your user page at User:Publisa, and the template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. Please respond before making any other edits to Wikipedia. Praxidicae (talk) 15:05, 9 March 2020 (UTC)


 * I have only just read that message. My attention was distracted by the message that followed from another man (I presume someone with a name like "Guliolopez" is a man - he sounds like a man anyway, and a contemptuous one at that). I would otherwise have responded to such a serious accusation. My response: I wish. Or if that is not good enough, I hereby declare that I am "not being directly or indirectly compensated" for my edits. I did not even realize it was possible. Further, if that is not enough, I am not employed by (and do not volunteer with) any media organization, not does anyone I know.
 * Now I ask you to please explain why you think that I might be paid by several organisations, organizations which are based in numerous counties across four different provinces, many of which I have never set foot in? And what is it, about, e.g. adding "The" to the title, as is shown on the newspaper masthead, and visible on its website, and - in many cases - already used on Wikipedia, that is such a cause for concern? For that is all I have done today, and is much of what I have done before. Publisa (talk) 15:28, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Donegal Sport Hub logo.png
Thanks for uploading File:Donegal Sport Hub logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:50, 17 March 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of DonegalSportHub


A tag has been placed on DonegalSportHub requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section R3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a recently created redirect from an implausible typo or misnomer, or other unlikely search term.

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.

Other implausible redirects that are nominated for deletion (all created at the same time and frankly border on a form of linkspam) include:
 * Donegal Sport Hub (not nominated)
 * Donegal Sports Hub (not nominated)
 * The Donegal Sport Hub
 * The Donegal Sports Hub
 * DonegalSportHub
 * DonegalSportsHub
 * TheDonegalSportHub
 * TheDonegalSportsHub
