Hello, FirstIdentity, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as First Identity, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

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 First Identity requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, 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. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about 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 "Click here to 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 removed 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.

You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

The article Nhat Danh Quoc Co., Ltd. has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, individual animal, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 01:21, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended for publicity and/or promotional purposes. If you intend to edit constructively in other topic areas, you may be granted the right to continue under a change of username. Please read the following carefully.
Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, website or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but such groups are generally discouraged from using Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.

Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?

Probably not, although if you can demonstrate a pattern of future editing in strict accordance with our neutral point of view policy, you may be granted this right. See Wikipedia's FAQ for Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, organization, or clients. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again.

What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you may consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.

If you do intend to make useful contributions here about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:

  • Add the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} on your user talk page.
  • Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
  • Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
    • Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
    • Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

Guidance

[edit]

You asked about guidance on how to write an article on First Identity. There are a couple of issues here.

  • First of all, your username violates the username policy because it's the [[WP:CORPNAME|name of an organization and implies shared use. Wikipedia accounts are for individuals; company or group accounts are not permitted. Only one person may have access to an account, ever, and the username must reflect that. Please request a username change at WP:Changing username/Simple. If several members of your organization want to edit Wikipedia, each of them must create an account of their own (or edit without an account). If you want your username to be associated with the organization, a username such as "John at First Identity" would be acceptable. If you continue to edit without requesting a username change, you may be blocked from editing.
  • Secondly, you should take a look at Wikipedia's guideline on conflicts of interest. Writing about an organization you're closely affiliated with, while not prohibited outright, is discouraged because it's difficult to maintain a neutral point of view when doing so.
  • Thirdly, all Wikipedia content must be based on reliable sources that are independent of the subject, such as articles published by newspapers or reputable magazines (not press releases or a company's own website, not blogs or social media, not interviews with company personnel). That's necessary both to allow our reader to verify the article's content and to establish that the organization is notable enough to be the subject of an article in the first place.

If you know of at least three to five such sources that cover First Identity in some detail (not just passing mentions or trivial coverage in government registries that every company would possess), I'd suggest you use the Article Wizard to write a draft by summarizing in your own words what those sources say about First Identity (no copy-pasting, please, for reasons of copyright) and submit it for a review by an experienced editor.

I see you were blocked already while I typed this comment. We don't generally appreciate what could be considered spam. Huon (talk) 01:51, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
