Speedy deletion nomination of Poitín (musical group)

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 Poitín (musical group) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that your page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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 removed 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, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the page be "userfied" or emailed to you. Davidjohn13 (talk) 12:09, 18 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Poitin31. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Poitín (band), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. UtherSRG (talk) 11:04, 13 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the advice and information. Can another person not connected to the band use my Wikipedia account to create an article about the band? Regards the last point, it was not my intention to create the article 'for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything'. Only to inform. Poitin31 (talk) 11:16, 13 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Accounts are for individual use only. You should request a username change to indicate your individuality (see below). As a person connected to the band, you have an inherent COI and must disclose this in a manner consistent with the above. Once you have done both of those, you can them proceed to edit the draft. If the draft is moved into main article space, you should not edit it directly but instead make suggestions on its talk page. - UtherSRG (talk) 11:50, 13 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you. COI added to User Page. JeremyCZ (talk) 12:26, 13 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Your username

edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Poitin31", may not comply with our username policy. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, service, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art". However, you are permitted to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you individually (not your role), such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, service, or website, regardless of your username. Please also read our paid editing policy and our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please request a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, choosing a username that complies with our username policy. Alternatively, you can just create a new account and use that for editing. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you.
