Hello, Ritika2200. Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia. A page you created User:Ritika2200/sandbox  has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seemed to be unambiguous advertising which only promoted a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to have been fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic.

This article needs to be rewritten from scratch from reliable, third party sources unconnected to the subject. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. It is not an outlet for promotion, advocacy, or advertising.

Information on content and common pitfalls to avoid can be located here and here, however be aware that this is not an exhaustive list. Pages can sometimes avoid these pitfalls and still be seen as an ad copy or unambiguously promotional, particularly if the editor appears to be a paid editor or has some other conflict of interest. Please review these policies, including the FAQ page on organizations to determine if this applies to you.

Common mistakes or beliefs about promotional editing center on the assumption that promotional editing only applies to promotion for commercial gain. Some tags or G11 nominations are met with confusion by creators, particularly if they spend much time reading or creating corporate documents, mission/vision statements, or similar copy for their organization. The frequent exposure to promotional tone may make it difficult to notice non-neutral phrases or styles, as the editor has grown accustomed to seeing it as everyday writing or speech. This can be difficult, but not impossible, to unlearn.

Another common assumption is that the prohibition against promotional editing applies only to businesses or organizations. Anything can be promoted, including a person, a non-commercial organization, a point of view, etc. and CV/resumé's are by their nature promotional.

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 this page on citing sources and Common sourcing mistakes (notability). This page 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. New article creation can be difficult, but the Article Wizard can help you. The new user tutorial can help you avoid future problems.You can ask for help at WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk and on IRC chat   The Wikipedia Adventure is a useful tutorial.

New article creation can be difficult and frustrating. Sometimes it is better to first gain experience by fixing and helping maintain existing articles. Community portal/Opentask contains links to things that badly need doing, if you are so inclined. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 09:47, 23 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Hi! I am not advertising. I looked at the other schools and followed a similar format. Ritika2200 (talk) 09:55, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Your language was promotional, I'm afraid, and the content was not adequately sourced. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 09:58, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I can rewrite it but this was definitely not promotional. I looked at KIS International School and International school Bangkok and then wrote it. Why would i want to advertise when I know the rules of wikipedia. You could have given me the suggestions. Why would you delete the page? Ritika2200 (talk) 10:02, 23 December 2023 (UTC)


 * I was so happy that I finally learnt how to use wikipedia and did well. Ritika2200 (talk) 10:04, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Please follow the links in the deletion notice to help learn how to not edit in a promotional manner. The two examples you cited do not contain the promotional language you used. It can be difficult to learn to not write in a promotional manner. You might want to gain more experience before attempting article creation. Please, it is clear you have not read the deletion notice and have not followed the links. Please do so. Thanks --  Deepfriedokra (talk) 10:08, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I clearly mentioned this was my first article. It is not necessary to be so harsh and dis-motivate a person who is trying to learn something new. Ritika2200 (talk) 15:06, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Sorry, that was not meant to be harsh. I said in my deletion notice that creating new articles is very hard and linked you to the information you will need to not write promotionally, and then I asked you to please follow those links. Thanks -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 17:46, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
