This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

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.

 Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because your account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. Also, your username indicates that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must: To do this, post the text  at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked.
 * Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
 * Provide a new username.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text  at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. The Blade of the Northern Lights ( 話して下さい ) 16:41, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

You do not necessarily have to be selling goods or services to be writing in a promotional manner. Simply using Wikipedia to publicize your organization's existence to the world is itself promotion. Unless it meets Wikipedia's definition of a notable organization, and has already been written about extensively in reliable sources unaffiliated with the organization, then this won't be allowed. Whether or not the organization represents a worthy cause is irrelevant. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 21:25, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Hi Daniel,
 * My apologies for the delay, my IP was blocked.
 * I utterly understand that. The information is taken from the French Ministry of Defence, in situ off their sign boards at cemeteries. I would certainly not in any way intend to add my own slant. Same goes for say the Commonwealth War Graves information. Every cemetery has an info booklet and tablet, and any info is taken verbatim from them. 109.109.182.150 (talk) 06:20, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

I've fixed the formatting of your request, the information needs to go where indicated. Do you understand that Wikipedia content is not based on personal observations, but on what independent reliable sources that can be verified say? 331dot (talk) 09:04, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
