A tag has been placed on Draft:Regal London, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. 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:
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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Your account has been blocked indefinitely for advertising or promotion and violating the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use. This is because you have been making promotional edits to topics in which you have a financial stake, yet you have failed to adhere to the mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a form of conflict of interest (COI) editing which involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is strictly prohibited. Using this site for advertising or promotion is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia.
If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, please read our
guide to appealing blocks to understand more about unblock requests, and then add the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
at the end of
your user talk page. For that request to be considered, you must:
ScottDoesWiki ( block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser ( log))
Request reason:
Notes:
If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:
{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2=I do not have any financial interest in Regal London and I do not understand how I was being promotional, I simply researched the company and used an external reference from the government website [[User:ScottDoesWiki|ScottDoesWiki]] ([[User talk:ScottDoesWiki#top|talk]]) 15:19, 28 March 2024 (UTC) |3 = ~~~~}}
If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}}
with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a
default reason, explaining why the request was declined.
{{unblock reviewed |1=I do not have any financial interest in Regal London and I do not understand how I was being promotional, I simply researched the company and used an external reference from the government website [[User:ScottDoesWiki|ScottDoesWiki]] ([[User talk:ScottDoesWiki#top|talk]]) 15:19, 28 March 2024 (UTC) |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}
If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here
with your rationale:
{{unblock reviewed |1=I do not have any financial interest in Regal London and I do not understand how I was being promotional, I simply researched the company and used an external reference from the government website [[User:ScottDoesWiki|ScottDoesWiki]] ([[User talk:ScottDoesWiki#top|talk]]) 15:19, 28 March 2024 (UTC) |accept = accept reason here ~~~~}}
Government websites/documents are considered primary sources. The main purpose of a Wikipedia article about a company is to summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about a company, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable company. You didn't pick this company at random to edit about, why did you decide to edit about it? 331dot ( talk) 07:38, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
