Quanda Francis

She is not a major candidate according to your very source. She has not been included in any poll and has no Wikipedia page either. Clearly not a major candidate.Pennsylvania2 (talk) 15:17, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Quanda S. Francis

The article Quanda S. Francis has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. The nominator also raised the following concern:

Not notable, all sources are about her being a very minor candidate in the 2021 NYC Mayoral race

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

The article is of significance because Quanda Francis became the first black woman in history to qualify for ballot access in a general election as a candidate for Mayor of New York City. Sources cited in Columbia University, Barnard College history guide. Quanda Francis also established Empowerment party of New York and she is currently running to become the next Lt. Governor of New York State. Reboot40 (talk) 03:52, 10 December 2021 (UTC)

The article is of cultural and historical significance to the African American community because Quanda Francis, an African American woman became the first black woman in history to qualify for ballot access in a general election as a candidate for Mayor of New York City. Sources cited from Columbia University, Barnard College history guide, Commonwealth of Virginia Joint house resolution. Quanda Francis also established Empowerment party of New York. Citations added and HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION NO. 737 added as well Reboot40 (talk) 07:26, 10 December 2021 (UTC)

We suspect Yousef raz is not a member of the African American community and thus does not understand the cultural and historical relevance of a black woman who is also an ambassador to the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture being the first in history qualify for ballot access as a New York City mayoral candidate and appear on a citywide general election ballot. It has never been done. A dozen New York City mayoral candidates did not qualify for ballot access and thus did not appear on the ballot.

This editor, Yousef raz has also edited other political pages and calling Francis’s accomplishment minor and is offensive  to the African American community and black women in particular. The timing of the request for deletion appears to be political motivated since on December 8, 2021, Francis stated she intends to run for Lt. Governor of New York.

Quanda Francis is not the first black woman to qualify for ballot access in a general election as a candidate for the Mayor of NYC. Frances Villar was on the 2009 NYC Mayoral ballot and Lenora Fulani was on the 1989 NYC Mayoral Ballot.Yousef Raz (talk) 00:29, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

December 2021

Hello Reboot40. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Reboot40. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Reboot40|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. --Blablubbs (talk) 15:07, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

Request reason:

Your reason here I am not a paid supporter. I am someone inspired by the subject. Do you believe that even fan/ supporter is paid. How many of you are white? Is there any diversity among Wiki admins. I do not know the subject and I have said that repeatedly but because my first article is important to me, you justed this venue to be racist and attempt to erase the accomplishment the a woman of color that a lot of people that would be interested in how a black woman was able to establish a political party and run as that party nominee in the largest city in the United States.

Decline reason:

Based on this unblock request, and the comment below it, I believe that at this time it is in the best interest of the encyclopedia to leave the block in place.

I would strongly suggest that you read the guide to appealing blocks, and leave race out of your next request. SQL^{Query Me!} 06:55, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

• So angry I cannot spell but I will restate my reason again, I am someone inspired by the subject. Do you believe that every fan/ supporter is paid by a celebrity? How many of you are white? Is there any diversity among Wiki admins. I do not know the subject and I have said that repeatedly but because my first article is important to me, you justied utilizing Wiki as a venue to be racist and attempt to erase the accomplishment of a woman of color and my accomplishment of establishing this page. A lot of people are interested in how a black woman was able to establish a political party and run as that party's nominee in the largest city in the United States.As I previously stated, it has never been done. Columbia University acknowledged this accomplished as evidence of their voter guide that was approved from distribution to us, the students~.

Request reason:

I am not being paid directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – This is my first page and I mentioned race because you stated the subject must be paying me directly or indirectly to be this invested. It is my first page and I intend to boycott Wikipedia so no one else will donate and use other sources.Reboot40 (talk) 15:42, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Not an unblock request. Since you say you are boycotting Wikipedia, there is no need to remove the block. 331dot (talk) 16:10, 19 December 2021 (UTC)
