Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Lanka Property Web[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:Lanka Property Web, 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.

Request reason:

Lanka property web is a company that operates solely online in advertising real estate in sri lanka. It is a registered private limited company similar to that of Zillow or ikman.lk in Sri Lanka. So far such a firm does not exist in the country primarily catering for real estate only. The content posted on wikipedia was solely done so to create awareness on the firm's authenticity. While there are other platforms that can confirm this, I understand that being linked directly through wikipedia is of much more recognition. I also want to emphasise that the content posted was cited by many other platforms and recognized news websites in Sri Lanka and a structure similar to Zillow's description was used. However, if it is still being considered as advertising, could you please highlight the specific areas that seem supportive of this and I will work on it to ensure such content is avoided altogether. Or unblock my access so I can rework on it and put it up for reviewing again. This is the second time I am posting this description and since it was taken down earlier, I ensured previous promotional mistakes weren't repeated. Yet it was taken down again. Please do let me know how I can correct the existing content so that it could be republished or take down only the specific content that is being considered promotional while publishing the rest. Please also note that there is no form of undisclosed paid advertising involved here (a reason for the page being taken down). Shamlanlpw1 (talk) 04:16, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

As noted below, "creating awareness" is considered promotional here. There must already be awareness of a company in order for it to merit a Wikipedia article, as shown with significant coverage in independent reliable sources indicating how it meets Wikipedia's special definition of a notable company. I don't see where you have disclosed your paid editing status. You won't be unblocked to continue editing about what I presume is your company. If you want to edit about other subjects unrelated to your conflict of interest, please say what those are. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 10:03, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

"Creat[ing] awareness of the firm's authenticity" is tantamount to advertising as far as we are concerned. Not only do we have a mandatory neutrality policy, but our Terms of Use requires you disclose your employer if you are editing Wikipedia on their behalf (even if you are an unpaid intern or a hired contractor). —A little blue Bori v^_^v ^{Onward to 2020} 08:19, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
