User talk:WilloughbySupply

A tag has been placed on your user page, User:WilloughbySupply, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be blatant advertising which only promotes or publicises a company, product, group or service, and which 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. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

If you can indicate why the page is not blatant advertising, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion  tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy deletion candidate). Doing so will take you to your user talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also edit this page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would help make it encyclopedic. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. &#124; Uncle Milty  &#124;  talk  &#124;  17:11, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

Contested deletion
This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (your reason here) --WilloughbySupply (talk) 17:47, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

Uncle Milty,

I am sorry if i did something incorrect on here - we are new to Wikipedia, but we know it carries a very good reputation online.

We were not looking to promote product, rather just show a history of our company. We have a 32 year old stake in the roofing supply industry, and are growing to new markets.

We do not sell to the general public, we only sell to contractors, and with that said we were just looking to Wikipedia as a means to solidify our reputation and be involved in the internet as a whole, like a facebook, twitter, instagram - we don't really sell as much as my boss wants to establish a better online presence.

just like a competitor's wiki page we came accross https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABC_Supply

or some of our suppliers

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GAF_Materials_Corporation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CertainTeed

I hope you reconsider Uncle Milty.

please?

Thank you for your time.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. Thank you. &mdash; MusikAnimal  talk  19:46, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

1. I didn't delete your user page. Look at the blue box right above this message.

2. You tried to make an article in user space. There are plenty of warnings against that right there on the page where you tried to create an article.

3. The existence of another article doesn't make yours okay. That other article you mentioned (ABC Supply) is for a company that meets Wikipedia's notability requirements. There was no proof that your company does.

4. Look around Wikipedia a while before trying again. There is plenty of guidance available here.
