User talk:ExpressIntlInc

Welcome!

Hello, ExpressIntlInc, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Draft:Express International Inc, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Express International Inc

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:Express International Inc, 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. ~Liance^talk 21:58, 31 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Express International Inc (March 31)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Liance was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Express International Inc and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because it has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. Also, your username gives the impression that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or website, which is against the username policy.

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must follow all these steps:

Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked; and
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
Provide a new username.

To do this, insert the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can search to see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is still available.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. Secretlondon (talk) 22:52, 31 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Hi, I understand my draft may have come across as promotional, and I sincerely apologize if it didn’t meet Wikipedia’s tone or content standards. I genuinely tried to follow the rules by citing reliable sources — including government sites like the Guyana Ministry of Finance, reputable organizations like COPC and AmCham Guyana, and media outlets such as Guyana Chronicle and MTV News Guyana. I included citations for all claims and structured the article around verifiable milestones and community initiatives. If I misunderstood what qualifies as neutral or encyclopedic, I’d really appreciate feedback or examples of where the tone or content went wrong so I can make the necessary changes. I'm happy to revise the draft to ensure it meets Wikipedia’s guidelines. Thank you for your time and consideration.190.108.214.139 (talk) 19:54, 1 April 2025 (UTC)

Accept reason:

Thank you for the disclosure. Avoid promotional language and AI-written comments moving forward. Head over to Wikipedia:Changing username and don't start editing elsewhere until you've been renamed. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 16:44, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! To help us respond to the request, please do the following:

Comment: In accordance with the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use, I disclose that I have been paid by my employer for my contributions to this article. ExpressIntlInc (talk) 16:56, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

, and I’ve also added a disclosure to my user page. I’m willing to revise the tone of any sections that come across as promotional. I am also willing to work on replacing self-published or primary sources with more independent, third-party references to improve notability and neutrality.

To better align with Wikipedia’s COI and content guidelines, here are the changes I would be willing to make to the draft:

Revise promotional or subjective language to ensure a strictly neutral tone. For example, I would rephrase lines like “enhance transportation services” or “leading the way” to be more fact-based and objective.
Convert the bullet-point timeline in the History section into full paragraphs to match standard Wikipedia article structure.
Reduce the number of external links at the bottom to include only the official website and possibly one or two neutral directories (e.g., Crunchbase). I understand that links to review sites or listings (like Trustpilot) are generally discouraged.
Replace or supplement company-published sources with stronger, independent third-party sources where available, to help demonstrate notability and improve verifiability.
Add the {{connected contributor (paid)}} template to the draft’s talk page and avoid making direct edits to the live article (if it is created), following the proper disclosure and edit request process instead.

My goal is to ensure the draft meets Wikipedia’s standards and reflects a neutral, encyclopedic tone. I’d appreciate guidance on specific parts that still need revision. Thank you. ExpressIntlInc (talk) 16:56, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-administrator comment) I just run that comment through GPTZero. It came back as 100% AI (highly confident). You are blocked, not an AI, so we'd like to hear from you. QwertyForest (talk) 17:34, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@QwertyForest - I understand now, I typically use AI to streamline my responses but will no longer do so for Wikipedia. If there's anything else to clarify, kindly let me know, thanks! ExpressIntlInc (talk) 18:26, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've gone ahead and added the payment disclosure to your user page. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 02:12, 8 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, would I be able to re-do the article and re-submit for review now? ExpressIntlInc (talk) 13:56, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
