Speedy deletion nomination of User:Darryltdavies/sandbox

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 User:Darryltdavies/sandbox, 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 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, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. — O Fortuna ^{semper crescis, aut decrescis} 09:03, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for message. You are correct in so far as draft articles are given some leeway in terms of referencing and other improvement, but they can be deleted for eg blatant spamming or copyright violation. I deleted your article because it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include: Capitalizing on years of experience in the innovative Israeli Medical Cannabis market, combined with exclusive strains of high CBD genetics and first to market advantages globally, MGC is creating a seamless, highly supervised supply chain, from planting to extraction, creating the highest quality resins, oils and proprietary delivery devices available in the market—and that's just one paragraph. Other problems

• it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the company, press releases, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company claims or interviewing its management. Your two references appeared to be press releases, not independent third party sources. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and you should not use bare urls. You should have an in-line reference for everything you claim. See also this guidance
• To show notability you need hard verifiable facts such as the number of employees, turnover or profits, all you have told us is what it sells.
• the article was created in a single edit without wikilinks or references and a non-standard heading style, and looks as if was copied from an unknown and possibly copyrighted source. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient.
• It seems likely that you have a conflict of interest when editing this article, and you must declare it. If you work directly or indirectly for the company, or otherwise are acting on its behalf, you are very strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. Regardless, if you are paid directly or indirectly by the company you are writing about, 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:Darryltdavies. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Darryltdavies|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message.

I am prepared to restore a de-spammed version of the text if you wish, but first you need to

1. be sure that you can provide evidence of notability as indicated above, and that you can find genuinely independent sources.
2. assure me that the text isn't copied from any website (I didn't check because it was G11 anyway, but someone will).
3. answer the COI query.

You could alternatively start from scratch, but you will still need to answer the COI question. Let me know how you want to proceed, Jimfbleak - talk to me? 14:06, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
