Tips
  • Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
  • It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
  • If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
  • Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
  • When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
  • If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
  • Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, CSMention269 (talk) 07:24, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of User:KamranFord[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 User:KamranFord, 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.

Request reason:

I am totally new to wiki. I have a company and I would like to have a wiki-age for it. I crated it and then came back to delete the other one and then saw the block. I don't intend to advertise and was just giving facts, and also I believe I already submitted that I am related the to the business so hoping there won't be an issue with conflict of interest but editing and things with codes is new to me. Sorry for confusionKamranFord (talk) 09:09, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

No, you will not be unblocked to do this. Additionally, come off it. "Just giving facts" indeed. This is some of the most promotional fluff I've seen in my time here. Yamla (talk) 12:50, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the ((unblock)) template again.

Unblock discussion[edit]

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. Unlike LinkedIn, it does not have pages for companies. It has encyclopedia articles, of which some are about companies. Subjects of articles must meet inclusion requirements with reliable sources which are unconnected with the subject and which provide verifiable information. Someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written a great deal about the subject. " All content must be cited from reliable, independent sources with a reputation for fact checking."

Due to the promotional nature of your edits and your WP:conflict of interest, you will not be unblocked to write about your company. Please describe what non promotional edits unrelated to your company you would make to help buid the modern wonder of the world that is this encyclopedia.. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 09:41, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Like I said in my previous comment, I am totally new to wikipedia ad a contributor and I thought the community will edit my text or help me edit it, but I have noticed totally in line with the times we live in I just got canceled. Cancel culture is horrible, instead of helping eachother to advance we just cancel what we don't like to see right away. The reason I want to showcase my business in wiki is that I am trying to change how driver training is done in the U.S. Compared to Europe, specifically Germany where I received my license in early 90s the driver training in the U.S. is a joke, not only that but if you are over the age of 18 in the U.S. driver training is not mandatory and people "learn" it themselves or someone without proper training teaches them to drive. This is what is contributing to all the deaths and tragedies. My business "the hills driving school" is a micro business. In 2023 my net profit was $1500 and that is with me taking zero salary, so my employees made a lot more money than I have. Also part of teh reason I wanted to post my business wiki is that I wanted to show the statistics in Germany by adding more sources to prove my point, so what I posted was just the first version. But not only you canceled that post and didn't help me to edit it, but you also canceled me, and my account. In addition, I want to change the laws and I want to draft a proposition to California government to change the rules and train people like in Europe and get rid of the "self-taught" system where poeple over theage of 18 don't get any proper training. I am still not sure how this works, but I hope someone in wiki community sees that my intentions are good and I want to help people. I have also fostered strong community ties by actively engaging with local schools, hosting free safety seminars, and participating in neighborhood events. Our instructors volunteer their time to speak at community gatherings, emphasizing the importance of safe driving practices. Additionally, we offer discounted rates for low-income families and collaborate with local organizations to provide accessible driver education to underserved communities. By prioritizing community involvement, we aim to create a culture of responsibility and support that extends beyond the confines of our driving school.Our driving school is committed to changing driver training with an unwavering focus on ethics and community welfare. Our mission is to eradicate the heart-wrenching tragedies families endure due to preventable car accidents. Through innovative programs and a steadfast dedication to safety, we aim to empower drivers with the skills and mindset necessary for responsible and conscientious driving. With your support, we can transform our roads, ensuring a safer future for all. My first submission was also partly generated by chat gpt and it was more focused on my personality and my background in aerospace such as working at SpaceX and Lockheed, but that was not my intention at all, and like I said I was hoping the community will edit or help me edit my submission.
