Speedy deletion nomination of Dr. Rama Sofat Hospital
Hello Rama Sofat,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Dr. Rama Sofat Hospital for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

 * You may wish to comment on the article talk page, which you can do by clicking "Talk" at the top of the article(if viewing on a computer) but looking at the page, one tip off that it is promotional is "We offer". Wikipedia is not social media to tell the world about the services that your hospital offers.  This is an encyclopedia, which is more selective about its content.  Wikipedia articles must indicate with independent reliable sources how your hospital is notable.  Please review those pages.
 * Since you write "we offer" I assume that you represent this hospital. You will need to review the conflict of interest policy before you edit further.  If you work for the hospital, you are required by Wikipedia's Terms of Use to comply with the paid editing policy and declare such status. 331dot (talk) 08:22, 18 August 2017 (UTC)

Paid editing
Hello Rama Sofat. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic. 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. 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, 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:Rama Sofat. 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. If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, please do not edit further until you answer this message. Jytdog (talk) 16:48, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
