Speedy deletion ↗ nomination of :Alan Qassab ↗

A tag has been placed on :Alan Qassab ↗, 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 {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=Alan+Qassab|deleting administrator}}. <!-- Template:Db-spam-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> Zygmeyer (talk) 16:57, 24 March 2026 (UTC)
:What have I done wrong? There is nothing incorrect about this. Also, it isn’t my first article, I have made Qushtapa, Penjwen and Taqtaq also. Mohammed Alan (talk) 17:08, 24 March 2026 (UTC)
::I haven’t really known what I’ve done. Can you explain to me? An AI gave me the sources. Mohammed Alan (talk) 17:15, 24 March 2026 (UTC)
:::There were two issues: the article read like a list of qualifications, and the sources didn't provide substantial coverage. For an article to exist, there have to be multiple '''independent''' sources that provide '''substantial coverage'''. Even if information is true, it has to meet these rules for an article to exist. The sources on the article just listed Mr. Qassab's degrees and positions, rather than talking at length about who he is and what he does.
:::Additionally the tone of the article was promotional, and read similarly to a resume. Zygmeyer (talk) 17:45, 24 March 2026 (UTC)
::::I am very sorry. I didn’t mean to make a promotion, in my opinion, I thought the article was great. It turns out I’ve done things wrong. I’ll work better next time. Mohammed Alan (talk) 17:47, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on :Zarin, Iraq ↗ requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion ↗, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, a question that should have been asked at the help ↗ or reference ↗ desks, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub ↗ for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable ↗ subjects and should provide references to reliable sources ↗ that verify ↗ their content.
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".

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to '''the region of South Asia ↗ (India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Nepal), broadly construed, including but not limited to history, politics, ethnicity, and social groups''', a topic designated as '''''contentious ↗'''''. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and <em>does <strong>not</strong> imply that there are any issues with your editing</em>.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as ''contentious topics''. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee ↗. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia's norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators ↗ have an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit <strong>carefully and constructively</strong>, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia ↗;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines ↗;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practices;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system ↗.
<p><strong>Additionally, you must be logged in, have 500 edits, and have an account age of 30 days ↗ in order to make edits related to two subtopics:</strong> (1) Indian military history, or (2) social groups, explicitly including caste associations and political parties related to India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Nepal.</p><p>Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics ''procedures'', you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard ↗ or you may learn more about this contentious topic here ↗. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{tl|Ctopics/aware}} template.

Mirrors
25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Thanks for contributing to the article Deputy Prime Minister of the Kurdistan Region ↗. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable ↗ and attributed to reliable sources ↗. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored ↗, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference ↗ and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia ↗ or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page ↗, or just ask me. Thank you.<!-- Template:uw-refimprove --> ''Sam '''Kuru''' (talk) ↗'' 11:21, 17 April 2026 (UTC) <br clear="both">
:Thanks for your message. However, I would like to now what the mirrors were, so I won't make this mistake. Could you do that? Mohammed Alan (talk) 20:41, 17 April 2026 (UTC)

|style="vertical-align: middle; padding: 3px;" | Thanks a lot for making the Deputy Prime Minister of the Kurdistan Region ↗ and Speaker of Kurdistan Parliament ↗ articles! They were definitely needed. On a side note, I saw that line on your userpage about Kurdistan not counting on your list. I know it's your page and you can do whatever you want with it, but honestly, you can just put Kurdistan on there anyway! Country or not, no one is going to say anything or stop you on your own profile :) Thanks again for the articles! <b style="color:#ffffff;font-size:12px;display:inline-block;border:1px solid #839D5B;border-radius:4px;background-color:#839D5B;padding:1px;"> Zemen </b> <small>(talk)</small> 01:45, 26 June 2026 (UTC)
