Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:KWV House of Brandy

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:KWV House of Brandy, 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 Wikipedia: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 deleting administrator.

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 gives the impression 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:

  • Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
  • 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; and
  • Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
  • Provide a new username.

To do this, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} 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.

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 {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} 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. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 12:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

Sorry, I was trying to set-up a page with eleborate on the history of brandy production in South Africa and the formation of KWV brandy. This information is very pertainent to understand the history of brandy and important education material. This is my first attempt to load an article onto Wikipedia and I was following an approved article from Absolute Vodka in terms of information and layout. Sorry, I was trying to set-up a page with elaborate on the history of brandy production in South Africa and the formation of KWV brandy. This information is very pertinent to understand the South African history of brandy and important education material one would expect to find in an encyclopedia. This is my first attempt to load an article onto Wikipedia and I was following an approved article from Absolute Vodka in terms of information and layout. I work for KWV brandy and am attempting to provide historical information from this 105 year old organisation. Please will you unblock my account. And I'll keep the information on the page purely for educational purposes. This is by no means a commercial or promotional exercise. KWV House of Brandy (talk) 13:57, 13 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

You did not propose a new username as instructed. I did not have to get past the first line to know I was viewing some of the most promotional text I've ever seen in my years here. The fact that you say you aren't here to promote tells me that you are far too close to your company to be able to edit about it at this time. You must comply with the paid editing policy and read conflict of interest. If you are interested in editing about topics unrelated to your conflict of interest in the near term, please tell what. If not, this is the end of the road. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 15:47, 13 November 2023 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

I merged your requests, including one that was placed in the section header; edits only need to be placed in the larger edit window, not the smaller section header window. 331dot (talk) 15:39, 13 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

We have read through the reasons provided for our account being blocked and understanding our error. We now understand that the original article was self promotional and subject. It took a story telling approach rather than an informative. We have ammended the action and have drafted an article that is objective and based on facts. KWV brandy is a globally recognised brand and therefore they wanted to create a public page that has information on their brand and awards. We will stick to that notion and not include any one sided rhetoric. KWV House of Brandy (talk) 10:56, 12 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

We? Our? User accounts may not be shared. Cabayi (talk) 11:46, 12 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

No. If this is your only goal, this is the end of the line. Otherwise, you need to address your violation of WP:USERNAME and WP:COI and you need to tell us what you plan to write about instead. Yamla (talk) 20:45, 12 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

You have not proposed a new username. You still want to write an article about the company. I am revoking talk page access, because you are wasting our time. PhilKnight (talk) 16:31, 13 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
