User talk:Ashleymw78

Welcome!

Hello, Ashleymw78, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as User:Ashleymw78/sandbox/Bridgewater Interiors LLC., may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Ashleymw78/sandbox/Bridgewater Interiors LLC.

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:Ashleymw78/sandbox/Bridgewater Interiors LLC., 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.

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Ashleymw78. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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 organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

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, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Acroterion (talk) 22:30, 10 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I believe you

I believe that your subject is notable. You don't need to convince me, because I don't generally review articles. Each editor is a volunteer who does whatever tasks they wish to do. I like to help out on the help desk. I don't like to review articles.

I suggest that you put a concise statement about the notability on your article's talk page, together with your best three references that meet the reliability descriptions at WP:NCORP. Just three, no more. take a look at WP:CSMN before your pick those references. That will allow the reviewers to quickly answer any question about notability. You can use those references and all of your other references for statements in the article itself. -Arch dude (talk) 03:59, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much! Also, how do I submit this to the volunteers then to review it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ashleymw78 (talk • contribs)

What Arch Dude says - you have a potentially notable subject, but since it appears that you are working on behalf of that subject, you will need to work within the confines of Wikipedia's policy on editors with conflicts of interest. You will probably need to work through the articles for creation process, which is notably slow. In the meantime, Arch dude's suggestion is good - you need maybe three independent sources that show that the company has been noticed on more than a purely local level. And please don't copy things from the company's website into Wikipedia. Work from independent sources, and rewrite. Acroterion (talk) 04:05, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ok! Thank you to both of you and will do! Acroterion (talk)

paid editing

Hello Ashleymw78. 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:Ashleymw78. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Ashleymw78|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. Theroadislong (talk) 09:41, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
