Speedy deletion nomination of The Shaw Society


A tag has been placed on The Shaw Society, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic.

Good afternoon. I realise now that my username is the Shawsoc as I used an email address from the Shaw Society to set up a wiki account. I then proceeded to write their history. It obviously appears that I am promoting my own business. As an actor I have dealing with the Shaw Society and regularly attend their events and sometimes reaf plays for them. I intended to preserve their 75 year history as many of its original members pass away. Woupd.I be right in thinking that I violated the rules by using their email address to set up an account? If so I would like to change my account name and use my own personal details. Would thus be possible? Many Thanks Shawsoc (talk) 12:35, 7 February 2018 (UTC)
