Hello,

I should be grateful if you could kindly not delete this page as it will be benficial to the community.

I'm an individual and I have no commercial intentions. I have worked for more than 20 years in IT and I have found that a master page like this was missing where people and organizations could find a master index of information in one place.

As you will see in the article I am talking about several IT practices, standards, frameworks, methodologies.

I have no specific interest in anyone of them in particular. They are all from different organizations.

This page is a master index on the web.

Could you please share the details of what is wrong with the article?

Thanks and regards

Clive Perry Ramen

> The information contained on this webpage

Pages in Wikipedia are meant to be encyclopedia articles. The article is up for deletion because it would need to be fundamentally rewritten to be encyclopedic. MER-C 13:26, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, is it possible for you to help me so that I can get the article to be rewritten encyclopedically please? I would be happy to pay for the services if required provided that its affordable to me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PerryRamen (talk • contribs) 13:31, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I have revised the article to be encyclopedic. I should be grateful if you could kindly re-assess the article please. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PerryRamen (talk • contribs) 14:28, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To me, this does not look like a personal webpage as per nom. However, we should still delete as a WP:CONTENTFORK: ITSM is already addressed in IT service management, and the various subfields and certifications belong in Outline of information technology.

Hello, this is a personal webpage that I have developed. I have more than 20 years of experience in IT and I'm an SME (Subject Matter Expert) in ITSM & Operations. The contents of this article is different from the contents of Outline of information technology. Article IT service management does not address the Operations part of IT. Neither does it address all the Practices, Standards, Frameworks, Activities, Behaviours, Tools & Techniques listed in my article. If you delete this article you will destroy the start of a Master Index for Wikipedia in IT Service Management & Operations. I have updated the article to specify that it is a Global Index so that this article does not duplicate existing articles and added the required categories. I should be grateful if you could kindly consider approval of the article please. Respectfully yours, Perry.

Hello, I have implemented all your recommendations. I have also explained to you how this article is different from other articles that you have mentioned in the sense that it is a Global Index for IT Service Management & Operations. I have also explained to you that this article is not a duplicate of existing articles and that such a Global Index for IT Service Management & Operations was missing from Wikipedia. I am building this article in favour of Wikipedia. Having worked in IT for over 20 years, I have a holistic view of IT Service Management & Operations. I was myself lost before sometimes when looking for information due to the fact that there was not a central Index listing all the IT best practices, standards, guidelines, methodologies, frameworks, concepts, approaches, behaviours, techniques & tools on the web. This page is the Global Index that was missing and will be most beneficial to the community and Wikipedia. If you take a look at column "References & Links" of table "IT Practices/Processes/Functions/Activities", you will be able to see how many items do not have a link yet. These are separate articles that are yet to be written and developed on wikipedia. The table shows you at a glance what areas of IT have and don't have articles yet. I am working with and for Wikipedia by building and maintaining this page and I bring all my experience in IT to wikipedia. I will maintain the page and make it the Best Global Index in IT Service Management & Operations on the web. Please rest assured that you can rely on me. I should be grateful if you could kindly consider approval of the article please. Is it possible for me to have a status update from your side accordingly please? Respectfully yours, Perry.

Delete Wikipedia is explicitly not for manuals and guidebooks. The article is completely unsourced and from the above comments is clearly original research. Railfan23 (talk) 06:58, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I have been trying to explain to you that this article is not a guidebook or textbook but a Global Index.

You may proceed with the deletion of the article if you think that its not worthy.

Kind Regards

This just trips over a whole load of what Wikipedia is not. Wikipedia is not a free wiki hosting service for self-admitted personal web pages. It is not a directory of hyperlinks. That's exactly what is being done here, complete with a private set of rules (expressed in article space, no less) for contributors, added by the article's owner. PerryRamen, I encourage you to go and find out what an encyclopaedia is. Pick up a few and read them. They are not this, either. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia. To-do lists do not go in article space; articles are descriptive not tutorial ("are encouraged to refer to this list as guidance"); and the only article-space indexes are our outline articles, which are not external hyperlink farms, and which this is not.
