A tag has been placed on [[:User:Andrewbdporter/sandbox]], requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#G11|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 [[Wikipedia:Spam|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 [[:User:Andrewbdporter/sandbox|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 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:List of policies|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 {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=User%3AAndrewbdporter%2Fsandbox|deleting administrator}}. <!-- Template:Db-spam-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> <span style="background-color:lightblue">''''' [[User:Velella|Velella]] '''''</span><span style="background-color:lightblue"> <sup>''[[User talk:Velella|Velella]] Talk ''</sup> </span> 20:44, 11 October 2017 (UTC) |

{{Ping|Alex Shih}} While I agree that the page that Andrewbdporter could be seen as advertising, it was not blatant spam, and considering also his statement above about his editing intentions, plus the fact that he has already made one perfectly good edit on an article, I am inclined to give him another chance by unblocking. As the blocking administrator do you have any opinion to express? <small>''The editor who uses the pseudonym''</small> "[[User:JamesBWatson|JamesBWatson]]" ([[User talk:JamesBWatson#top|talk]]) 14:08, 18 October 2017 (UTC) |
