Speedy deletion nomination of User:Shikhers


A tag has been placed on User:Shikhers, 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. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. &#124; Uncle Milty  &#124;  talk  &#124;  10:05, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for message. User pages are for you to write about your activities on Wikipedia, and are not for promoting your company or anything else. I would have deleted your page even if posted as an article because
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the organisation company, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company organisation claims or interviewing its management. You gave some references, but they were not in-line so we can't tell what fact each is supporting, and in any case some were press releases or refer to your own publications rather than independent third-party sources. References should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls
 * There is little to show that the company meets the notability criteria. All you give us is a list of websites. To show notability you need hard verifiable facts such as the number of employees, turnover or profits. There is no indication that you even have an office'
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced or self-sourced claims presented as fact include: TIOL was the first online company to be recognised as online media by Press Information Bureau, Ministry of Information and Broadcasting... was invited by the Indian Parliament to participate in the legislative process relating to fiscal laws... It is recognised by the Revenue Boards, Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC) and Central Board of Direct Taxes&mdash;Even if true, you need independent sources to confirm this
 * There shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections. The latter should only have your main official website
 * If you have a conflict of interest when editing this article, you must declare it. If you work directly or indirectly for the organisation, or otherwise are acting on its behalf, you are very strongly discouraged 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 paid directly or indirectly by the organisation you are writing about, 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:. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:    . If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message.

Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Also read this important guidance. You must also reply to the COI request above

Hi Jimfbleak, thanks for reverting and clarifying with precise details. I shall work on getting every fact mentioned substantiated by precise references to make it more factual and encyclopaedic. Thanks again. Shikher.
