Proposed deletion of Thomas Fattorini (2009)

The article Thomas Fattorini has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable company, fails WP:CORP and WP:GNG

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. JD554 (talk) 21:08, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

This company is not a listed company as you propose it should be, but neither are most this company's competitors who have their own pages such as Toye, Kenning & Spencer, Asprey, Firmin & Sons, Spink & Son, Thomas Lyte, etc...

It does not seem fair or correct to block a company on this basis. I will resubmit again

Thomas Fattorini Ltd moved to draftspace (May 2020)

An article you recently created, [[Draft:Thomas Fattorini Ltd|Thomas Fattorini Ltd])], does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Mccapra (talk) 15:58, 30 May 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for you assistance with this. The company is over 190 years old with a great history. to get a flavour : https://fattorini.co.uk/about-us contains a time line from 1826 to the present day..

Your submission at Articles for creation: Thomas Fattorini Ltd (1st June 2020)

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

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and 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 when they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Thomas Fattorini Ltd and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Thomas Fattorini Ltd, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
• If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
• If you need any assistance, 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.

Hello, Schnoebi! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Theroadislong (talk) 13:27, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for your response Theroadislong; apologies for not reading it before republishing. I am having difficulty understanding the problem with what I have published to date. I used a basic entry from another company who was also a warrant holding company who had less citations (if I recall none). I have added 3 citations. Thomas Fattorini is an interesting company with almost 200 years history and it’s history includes that of Fattorini & Sons that has its own page on Wikipedia. Fattorini & Sons were acquired by Thomas Fattorini in 1984. Both companies were friendly competitors up to around 1975 when family offered Fattorini& Sons for sale to it’s managers..'Italic text My aim was to get a basic entry and then build on that. A lot of interesting material can be seen on their timeline. www.fattorini.co.uk/about-us.

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 15:25, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: British Art Medal Society (August 29)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SL93 was:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

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 when they have been resolved.Italic text

I am disappointed and rather suprised that the conclusion of the editor was that it reads like an advertisement. This is not an advertisement. It is an article describing a well established and internationally recognised educational charity that is encouraging the designing and making of medals. It works with art collages in the UK and overseas to encourage the craftsmanship of medal making (coin design); a tradition that spans over a 1000 years. It is supported by the British museum. I could go on, but I am somewhat deflated... The article is informative and accurate and I have ensured that it is cited well as requested.

If someone can assist me in restyling the article to read less like an advertisement, I would be very grateful.
Helped by SL93, with thanks
