User talk:UKFTorg
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, UKFTorg, 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:UKFTorg/sandbox, 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.
New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. You can also type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! 331dot (talk) 08:23, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
Your user page, User:UKFTorg/sandbox, has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appeared to be advertising which only promoted or publicized someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.
Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, or you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. 331dot (talk) 08:23, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

[edit]If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must:
- Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
- Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
- Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
- Provide a new username.
To do this, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}}
at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked.
Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.
Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. 331dot (talk) 08:23, 24 August 2023 (UTC)UKFTorg (block log • active blocks • global blocks • autoblocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

I fixed your request for proper display; a heretofore uninvolved admin will review it. I will say we don't have "pages for" a topic, but articles about topics. Wikipedia is not a place to merely tell about an organization and what it does- articles about an organization must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the organization and what makes it important/significant/influential as they see it(not as the organization itself sees it), showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable organization. Interviews, press releases, announcements of routine activities, and brief mentions do not establish notability. Please read conflict of interest and paid editing(which can be any paid relationship, and is not limited to specific payment for editing). 331dot (talk) 08:51, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for fixing my username. Understood the articles about topics note. I'll read the articles you linked in your previous message to check if the organisation could be relevant for an article and to learn more about the conflict of interest and paid editing topics. Lots of reading to do! UKFTorg (talk) 09:04, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Yamla, I have now read and understood the Wikipedia policies in question. May I please request to be unblocked? UKFTorg (talk) 08:27, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
- You will need to make a new unblock request below for someone else to review. You will need to demonstrate that you understand the relevant policies. 331dot (talk) 08:50, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
- Hi 331dot! OK, will do, thanks. UKFTorg (talk) 10:09, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

I've fixed the formatting of your request to properly propose your new username. Someone else will review your request, but editing about fashion would squarely fall within your conflict of interest. Note that you do not need to be specifically paid to make edits to be a paid editor- employment counts. If you work for the UKFT, you must make the paid editing disclosure. 331dot (talk) 10:31, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
