Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Everybody Journey: The Paper Caper 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:Everybody Journey: The Paper Caper, 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.

Nope - sorry edit

Just responding to your comment at the Teahouse, and on what you've just posted on your userpage. Nope - sorry, but you are not free to do what you like here. We are building an encyclopaedia of WP:GNG notable things, not providing free advertising and hosting for non-notable stuff. You may wish to read WP:NOTWEBHOST and Wikipedia:User pages (and especially WP:UP#NOT) to understand why you are not free to do what you like here; I am sorry if you were under the impression that you could. You'd be surprised how many accounts we block for people who feel they have a right to use Wikipedia in ways that fall outside our RULES. It's not just about staying CIVIL. You are, of course, free to go elsewhere if contributing to the world's greatest encyclopaedia isn't really your thing. Kind regards from the UK, Nick Moyes (talk) 17:28, 5 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
