Your submission at Articles for creation: EskanderBet (February 26)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by HitroMilanese were:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of websites). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:EskanderBet and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:EskanderBet[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:EskanderBet, 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[edit]

Hello, Ace Wager. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Draft:EskanderBet, 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 article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} 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 Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
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. TLA^tlak 02:51, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

February 2024[edit]

Hello Ace Wager. 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 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 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:Ace Wager. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Ace Wager|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. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 04:44, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Seraphimblade,

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to clarify that I am not directly involved in any paid activities at the moment. Currently, I'm diligently working on content within the Sports Betting and Horse Racing industry in Australia. My focus is on highlighting key industry figures and successful bookmakers, encompassing their journeys across various brands and their present endeavors.

Despite my efforts to refine the content, I've encountered challenges with publication due to potential flags. I would greatly appreciate any guidance or assistance you could provide in this matter.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Ace Wager (talk) 22:40, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to talk to me, then I would want to talk to you. I am not interested in a conversation with a chatbot. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 22:41, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please let me know on the best way to proceed? Ace Wager (talk) 22:50, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

{{unblock|@Seraphimblade I'm really not sure why you blocked me, I requested input/advice from you to improve my content and ensure that it is published on the platform. I would really appreciate feedback from you and assistance in this regard.}} Ace Wager (talk) 22:54, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I blocked you because, after having had your advertising material deleted twice as a draft, you apparently thought the proper way to proceed would be to then put it directly into mainspace instead. It is clear that your only purpose here is to advertise that company, so I will not unblock you, but you can review the block notice for instructions if you wish to appeal it. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 23:01, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This was not my intention at all. I am trying really hard to understand how to improve my content and where I went wrong. It was an honest mistake - I thought I was submitting a new draft as I had made further changes to the content. I would really appreciate your assistance on this matter. Ace Wager (talk) 23:05, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because your account is being used only for advertising or promotion.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 22:49, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Account Blocked[edit]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Ace Wager (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I made an honest mistake when trying to upload a new draft article for review and published this to the main area. I am therefore requesting that my request be reviewed in light of this, and that my account is unblocked in order to allow me to try to improve on my content.

Decline reason:

You will not be unblocked to write about your company. If that is your only goal, this is the end of the line. If however, you want to write about subjects outside of your conflict of interest, then let us know what they are in your next unblock request. PhilKnight (talk) 01:06, 29 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. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
