Definitely trying to add an article to Wikipedia was not a good idea.

Thanks to the people that spend their time doing it everyday. :)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Kima drink (November 8)[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 Theroadislong were:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

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.

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:Kima drink 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:Kima drink[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:Kima drink, 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, I'm Deb. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

You appear to have a close connection to the subject on Wikipedia that raises concerns about a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged.

Anyone with a conflict of interest must avoid or exercise great caution when:

editing articles related to you, your family or colleagues, your organization or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,
participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors,
linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
and you must always:
avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

Note that 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. Even if you are not being paid, you are expected to disclose any close connection with the subject of the article, using the connected contributor template.

For more details about what constitutes a conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Conflict of Interest. Thank you.

Hello Deb, I am amazed. With over 2000 articles you picked the first one I wrote on Wikipedia to delete. I feel honoured. Was it because I am new here and you want me to feel welcome?

Also I am sorry but while I was trying to become compliant with all that I was asked you simply went there and deleted my article. Are you planning also to delete all drinks pages in Wikipedia?

Can I please suggest you to review similar articles to the one I was writing?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelmosoda

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaffa_(drink)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wink_(soft_drink)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brisa_drink

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hank%27s_Root_Beer

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citrus_Blast

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Spot_(soft_drink)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krest

All these have basically no references or anything in them (Starting with the first one).

Anyway...thank you for editing Wikipedia and making sure people feel as unwelcome as possible. TheJusticeBear (talk) 16:40, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. I don't work for Kima, never worked for Melo Abreu and was just trying to add information about a beverage that is popular on the region I was born. TheJusticeBear (talk) 16:41, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You can drop the sarcasm. There is nothing special about you and your contributions, except that your article was identified (by another contributor) as promotional. Whether other articles meet the standard is irrelevant to whether yours does. At the moment it doesn't. You should also be aware but no one will see comments you write on your own Talk page unless you take the necessary measures to ensure that they do - I just happened to be passing. Deb (talk) 16:49, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I agree 100% definitely nothing special about me.

Anyway thank you for the feedback and for the knowledge that I can't base myself on other articles template as they may not be up to standards. TheJusticeBear (talk) 16:56, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

November 2022[edit]

This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at Draft:Kima drink, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. After the draft was deleted per WP:G11, you recreated the draft just to register your disapproval. That is a wholly inappropriate use of draft space, and I deleted it per WP:G3. If you do something similar again, you risk being blocked. Bbb23 (talk) 16:49, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I have followed the link because the following was added to my page:

The link I have clicked took me to (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Kima_drink&action=edit&redlink=1) to ask for the page to be contest the deletion and it took me there so I wrote on it not wanting to vandalize what I spend an afternoon trying to write and comply with all the Wikipedia rules. TheJusticeBear (talk) 16:54, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Once you clicked on that link, you should have realized that there was no button to click on to contest the deletion because the draft had already been deleted. Instead, you recreated the draft by putting your comments onto an empty slate.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:59, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the feedback and helo. It's my first time as a Wikipedia editor, and I may still have some things to learn and haven't noticed that I was adding that as a new page.

But lesson learnt, definitely I will keep away from trying to edit or add anything until I have more experience. TheJusticeBear (talk) 17:03, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
