User talk:Vndalmia

Hi, thanks for message. If you post an article it will be assessed as it stands. If you don't want that to happen, you should write it as a draft. User pages and their talk pages are for you to write about your activities on Wikipedia, and are not for promotion or to host articles, so I've deleted those. Regarding your article, I accept that it's not deliberate promotion, but the poor/incomplete referencing and in places dubious content means that it's not ready for article space, so I'll move it to draft. I noticed that you removed a speedy deletion tag yourself instead of waiting for an admin to decide. If that happens again i will block you.
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. It is now Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references, as defined in the link, or they will be deleted. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the subject 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 he claims or interviewing him its management. Much of you text was unreferenced or sourced to non-independent sources, for example ref 1 was written my him and ref 3 was an interview with his son.
 * He is probably notable but much of the text is gossip about his love life, difficult to see why that is relevant to his notability
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced or self-sourced claims presented as fact include: pioneering industrialist... greatest contribution was in the emergence of the Indian Cement Industry... among the wealthiest and most powerful men in India and maintained good relations with most political leaders... 

From what you say on my talk page, you are using his account; sharing an account is not permitted, and since you must not have an account which impersonates a living person, I will shortly block this account. Since I accept that the impersonation is not malicious, you will be able to create a new account.

If you try again, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at Vndalmia and your new account. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:   . 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.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you have created yourself.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for sharing the information but please note that I was using Mr. Dalmia's profile with his permission only. Our intention was not to publish, marketing or advertise anything but to put as much information as possible about him in one page. I will use another user ID to shorten the same under intimation to you. Meanwhile, is it possible for you to unblock the user Vndalmia from indefinitely to temporary?

Thanks,

Block notice
This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because the username, Vndalmia, matches the name of a well-known, living person.

If you are the person represented by this username, please note that the practice of blocking such usernames is to protect you from being impersonated, not to discourage you from editing Wikipedia. You may choose to edit under a new username (see information below), but keep in mind that you are welcome to continue to edit under this username. If you choose to do so, we ask the following:
 * Please be willing and able to prove your identity to Wikipedia.
 * Please send an email to info-en[[Image:At sign.svg|15px|@]]wikimedia.org. Be aware that the volunteer response team that handles email is indeed operated entirely by volunteers, and the reply may not be immediate.

If you are not the person represented by this username, you are welcome to choose a new username (see below).

A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive, or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account.

You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
 * Adding below. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "Email this user" on their talk page.
 * At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
 * Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Changing username.

If you think that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Jimfbleak - talk to me?  06:48, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

Unblocking actual user
Hi Jim

This is the individual concerned (VN Dalmia) himself. My (erstwhile) assistants had created this username years ago and would operate it under my instructions. In the latest instance, they felt the time was ripe to post an article about me but I guess they went about it the wrong way! I've now been apprised of all that transpired. In fact they were, and even more so I was, very uninformed regarding the guidelines and procedure. No one knew that articles were not to be posted on the User Page.

If they repost the article, it shall be after we have familiarised ourselves with all the guidelines and we shall do so in the form of a draft. They will create a new username for themselves and repost using that. I'll keep this one for my direct personal use if it can be unblocked. If not, I'll create a new one for myself. I can, of course, establish my own identity in any way prescribed.

Apologies for all the confusion and the errors on our part.

Best regards

VN
