Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Ziggi (company)


A tag has been placed on Draft:Ziggi (company), 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".

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.

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to List of rolling papers. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

 * I don't understand this. Why is Ziggi promotional material and other rolling paper companies in this list are not? Silkos (talk) 13:59, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Because "Born in 1991 out of a passion for quality and innovation, ZIGGI has grown from a spark of an idea into a cultural phenomenon." is pure, unadulterated marketing blurb, which has no place in an encyclopaedia. And this, combined with the promotional Draft:Ziggi (company) you submitted, makes it clear you're here to promote Ziggi. That's why. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:16, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I tried to create a page for a brand I like and it is not on the list of rolling papers here on Wikipedia. I used their web page to create content. This was my first article I created. Could you give me some guidelines which I must follow so that I can re-create content? I checked other rolling paper Wikipedia pages and I don't see why was mine treated as promotional. I already resubmited the edit for List of rolling papers. I hope this one would be ok. Silkos (talk) 14:53, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, that was the other thing with your draft, it only referenced the company's own website. We don't want to hear what the company has to say about itself, because a) for that we can just look up their website, and b) they have an interest in promoting themselves, which we don't.
 * Wikipedia articles should be written by summarising what secondary sources (newspapers, magazines, TV and radio programmes, books, etc.) have previously said about a topic. You need at least three such sources providing significant coverage (not just passing mentions) of the subject, and these sources must be reliable and fully independent of the subject (ie. not be based on press releases, interviews, sponsored content, or anything like that which ultimately comes from the subject). You summarise in your own words (no copypasting) what these sources have said, and cite the sources against the information they have provided. That gives you the content, the necessary referencing, and evidence of notability all in one go. This is also known as the WP:GOLDENRULE. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:38, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
