Speedy deletion nomination of Round Towers Lusk


A tag has been placed on Round Towers Lusk 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.  Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 01:42, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Here are a few key questions:
 * Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
 * Do you understand conflict of interest?
 * Do you understand that to be considered for an encylopedia article, the subject must be considered to be notable?

You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product that you have been promoting, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to violate the 3 important principles above. What sort of edits would you plan to make, if unblocked? JohnCD (talk) 11:16, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Please answer the questions above. JohnCD (talk) 11:29, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Proposed user name edited. I would intend to make edits only associated to GAA (Gaelic Athletic Association) information, particularly as regards the club for which I am Public Relations Officer-Round Towers Lusk. At the minute most other clubs in our association have very informative entries, and I intend to bring the entries about our club to that level. As regards the 3 questions
 * Yes I do understand that wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a business directory- What I am trying to publicise is a club which is a voluntary organisation, has been in existance for over 100 years and is of interest to a number of other articles in the areas of Irish History,GAA and local interests.
 * Yes I do understand conflicts of interest-the only interest here was to contribute to articles which help to increase the amount of infomation available on Wikipedia relating to the club.
 * Yes I do understand that the article needs to be considered notable-and I feel that what I contributed certainly was, and was going to be more notable by further additions.

I did not indicate that I was unwilling to follow the conflict of interest guidelines. I have changed the proposed username.
 * Under the conflict of interest guidelines, we all agree to avoid writing about our own organizations. You clearly stated that you are only interested in writing about your own organization. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 16:51, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Applied some AGF
In response to a request to unblock-en-l, I have un-autoblocked the IPs this user used so they can create a new account.

This does not change the comments above that Wikipedia isn't a place to publicize anything, and that such activity going forwards must be done carefully and in compliance with Wikipedia's purpose (of being an encyclopedia) and policy, if at all.
