Hello, T.rabia! 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 Misplaced Pages where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Qcne (talk) 19:51, 26 March 2024 (UTC) |
- Hello,
- I wanted to know how I could help the process and get the article published. Have I not cited enough sources? The subject of the article is a very well-known investor and entrepreneur with F1 investments and more. The topic of the article seems notable as per the Notability guidelines.
- Your guidance on this matter would be much appreciated. T.rabia (talk) 05:43, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @T.rabia. I see no indiciation Carl passes WP:NPEOPLE criteria, and frankly I believe be is a con artist. Qcne (talk) 18:01, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hello, @Qcne thank you for the reply! For future reference, should I use better references or it was fine? T.rabia (talk) 06:34, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
- Your references are mostly interviews, or listings. These are both not independent nor provide significant coverage. Qcne (talk) 17:10, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

Hello T.rabia. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Misplaced Pages's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being employed (or being compensated in any way) by a person, group, company or organization to promote their interests. Paid advocacy on Misplaced Pages must be disclosed even if you have not specifically been asked to edit Misplaced Pages. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Misplaced Pages 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:T.rabia. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=T.rabia|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. David Gerard (talk) 09:42, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hello David,
- Thank you for reaching out to me. I am in no way being paid for the edits. This was my first Misplaced Pages page and I was excited to see it live. You can be assured that I am not a paid editor or writer for any one. T.rabia (talk) 09:46, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Carl Runefelt
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 Carl Runefelt, requesting that it be deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Misplaced Pages:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
- It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
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 Misplaced Pages'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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

- Hello,
- Thank you for reaching out to me. What I don't understand why the page is tagged for deletion though. I added verified links from reputed websites and those were also independent sources. I also spoke to multiple community editors and followed their instructions. Please guide me and help me keep this page live if possible. T.rabia (talk) 10:30, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
