Speedy deletion of User:Rocco Borghese
A tag has been placed on User:Rocco Borghese, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as the Business' FAQ for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Beeblbrox (talk) 16:02, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Ian ¹³ /t  16:04, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved. This applies to articles about you, your achievements, your band, your business, your publications, your website, your relatives, and any other possible conflict of interest.

Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged. If you create such an article, it might be listed on articles for deletion. Deletion is not certain, but many feel strongly that you should not start articles about yourself. This is because independent creation encourages independent validation of both significance and verifiability. All edits to articles must conform to No original research, Neutral point of view, and Verifiability.

If you are not "notable" under Wikipedia guidelines, creating an article about yourself may violate the policy that Wikipedia is not a personal webspace provider and would thus qualify for speedy deletion. If your achievements, etc., are verifiable and genuinely notable, and thus suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later.

Speedy deletion nomination of Rocco borghese


A tag has been placed on Rocco borghese requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Rocco Borghese, you may be blocked from editing. JohnCD (talk) 14:35, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not for promotion
Welcome to Wikipedia. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. For the reasons why you should not write about yourself, see Autobiography. JohnCD (talk) 14:36, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

Rocco Borghese
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Rocco Borghese, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.futuraneon-artlight.com.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 15:00, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Rocco Borghese, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

It's an autobiography of an unnotable person

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay.

Your addition has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other websites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Reaper Eternal (talk) 15:03, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

JohnCD (talk) 15:05, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

This is your last warning; the next time you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising, as you did at Rocco Borghese, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. JohnCD (talk) 15:05, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

How to make a userspace draft
What you should do is, make a draft article in your user space at User:Rocco Borghese/Rocco Borghese. You can just click on that "redlink" to start.

First, read these guidelines: One other thing I should make clear is that, unlike Myspace and listing directories, if you have a Wikipedia article you will not be able to control it or to insist on the version you prefer - nobody, least of all its subject, WP:OWNs a Wikipedia article, other people can and will edit it, and you may encounter Wikipedia's Law of Unintended Consequences.
 * WP:Your first article
 * WP:Notability. This is a requirement to have a Wikipedia article, and is not a matter of opinion but must be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Myspace, Facebook, blogs, places where anyone can post anything; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and anything based on press releases. Consider carefully whether you can show notability, because if not you will be wasting your time. More detail at WP:Notability (people).
 * WP:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest. In summary, propose articles or changes that you would like, and let uninvolved users decide.
 * WP:PEACOCK. Wikipedia is extremely resistant to being used for promotion, and anything that looks like it will be deleted. One of the reasons editors with a COI are strongly discouraged is that they find it impossible to write neutrally about themselves/their bands/their companies. You must put absolutely out of your mind any idea that you can use a Wikipedia article to promote yourself, or that you are trying to sell yourself to the reader, or to do anything other than make neutral statements of verifiable facts. Imagine a hostile critic looking over your shoulder, saying at every adjective: "Who says so? Can you prove that?" See Verifiability, just below. It is unlikely that anything copied from your website will be suitable.
 * WP:Verifiability: "This policy requires that all quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged be attributed to a reliable, published source... and that the source directly support the material in question."

You can ask for comments on your draft at WP:Requests for feedback. When it is ready, do not post it yourself, but propose it at WP:Articles for creation. You should declare your interest (but your username does that for you). Either it will be accepted, or you will be given more feedback.

Regards, JohnCD (talk) 22:23, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Your draft
The way to give someone a link to your draft in a message is to give its title with double square brackets round it: what you type is  and the result looks like this: User:Rocco Borghese/Rocco Borghese, giving a link.

Your draft needs some changes to layout, images made smaller, but that can be sorted out. The important thing is WP:Notability. I have already said this further up, but notability must be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Myspace, Facebook, blogs, places where anyone can post anything; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and press releases. Your present draft has only one reference, and when I click on it I do not see anything about you. See WP:Notability (people), especially the section WP:CREATIVE.

As you are writing about yourself, the independent evidence for notability will be looked at particularly hard.

You can get comments on your draft at WP:Requests for feedback - give them a link as I described above - and when you want to submit the article you should do that at WP:Articles for creation; but unless it shows "significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources" the article has no chance.
