Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Modrn Legends[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:Modrn Legends, 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.

Hello, ScratcherSonic!
Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! CoconutOctopus talk 18:48, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

- Why can't I keep this up on Wikipedia? This is a school assignment, and it has to be up for at least 30 days to be graded. ScratcherSonic (talk) 18:54, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- Whilst I sympathise, Wikipedia is not a web host for personal projects and as such cannot be kept on Wikipedia. CoconutOctopus talk 19:01, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- I know, but this isn't personal, even though Modrn Legends is. I need to keep this out for my grades, and to help Sonic_06Fandiversia, who is currently fighting cancer. I'm trying to give him support by getting his creations out. Well, mine as well, since we created it together. ScratcherSonic (talk) 19:04, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, but this still isn't appropriate for Wikipedia, which is why I rejected the draft. CoconutOctopus talk 19:10, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- Then can you help me re-write it so that it can stay on Wikipedia? ScratcherSonic (talk) 19:11, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- OK, I get it. If it were an official anime or show, would it be plausible? ScratcherSonic (talk) 19:31, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- It would still need to meet the notability guidelines as covered here. CoconutOctopus talk 19:37, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- If you are writing about a show or animation that exists, it is more likely to be notable enough to keep on Wikipedia. What you are writing about is more suited to another website, such as a Fandom wiki. Reconrabbit 19:38, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- Ok... I already saved my work onto a Google Doc, so you might as well delete my draft. ScratcherSonic (talk) 19:44, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

- You might want to direct your teacher/professor to Wikipedia:Education program, as requiring a new article "to be up for at least 30 days to be graded" doesn't fit well with many of Wikipedia's processes. GoingBatty (talk) 03:13, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

Teahouse[edit]
You wrote at the Teahouse Now I can finish school, mope around, create my anime, and make a Wikipedia page about that, and have a Fandom page on it too! And you can't do anything about it.
Yes, something can be done about it. Please be aware that self-promotion is not permitted on Wikipedia. Self promotional content will be deleted, and if you persist with self-promotion, you will be blocked. Cullen328 (talk) 19:58, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- To quote myself: "Unless somebody does it first." ScratcherSonic (talk) 20:00, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- You can't do anything about my anime when it's a thing. You can't delete it or anything. And Modrn Legends will still exist, as it's also a game being programmed in the Infinity Engine. ScratcherSonic (talk) 20:09, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- I also noted your comments on the talk page of the deleted draft, so will respond here. No one has any desire to delete your actual work, even if we could. However, it is not appropriate to use Wikipedia for promotion of anyone or anything (and if this was some type of school assignment, you're welcome to refer your teacher to me saying so.) If you need access to the deleted material for your assignment, I will provide it for you as long as you agree to refrain from attempting to put it here again, but bottom line, you are not going to be permitted to do that. Seraphimblade Talk to me 21:07, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- I see... if I ever create the anime, it will be created by someone else. I plan to make a Fandom page on Modrn Legends, so if you can help me there, that would help a lot. ScratcherSonic (talk) 21:29, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- Other than occasionally reading something on it, I'm afraid I'm not very familiar with Fandom or how they work at all. Seraphimblade Talk to me 21:47, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
