Welcome!

Hello, LkNews, and welcome to Wikipedia! I have noticed that you are fairly new! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. I also see that some of your recent edits, such as the ones to the page Iraj Weeraratne, show an interest in the use of images and/or photos on Wikipedia.

Did you know that ...

...Wikipedia has a very stringent image use policy?
...most images from Flickr, online news websites, and other web sources are copyrighted?
...Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously?
...freely-licensed images should be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, a central location for images where they can be used on all Wikipedia projects?
...we recommend that new users use our "files for upload" process – at least until you get the hang of things?

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{Help me}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! POLITANVM ^talk 16:58, 6 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Chanux Bro

The article Chanux Bro has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:ANYBIO - YouTube and blogsites (ie. Domedia.lk) are not acceptable or reliable sources. Neither the SLT Zero One Awards or the Google I/O Extended Sri Lanka 2018 awards are notable awards. The rest are just a series of mentions in passing.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

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

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Chanux Bro

For the record I did not state that Sri Lankan Awards are not notable just the SLT Zero One Awards or the Google I/O Extended Sri Lanka 2018 awards are not notable awards. Dan arndt (talk) 04:25, 8 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, LkNews. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:58, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Chanux Bro

Hello NewsLK,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Chanux Bro for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.If you remove the tags of deletion I will ban your IP from Wikipedia Thank You

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Speedy deletion nomination of Chanux

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 Chanux requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chanux Bro. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to introduce inappropriate pages to Wikipedia, as you did at Chanux, you may be blocked from editing. If you need guidance on how to create appropriate pages, try using the Article Wizard. You know full well that consensus at a discussion was that this article was unsuitable for Wikipedia, and that the original title has been protected to prevent you from repeatedly re-creating the article in defiance of that consensus. Trying to evade that protection by changing the page title gives the impression that you have no intention of accepting Wikipedia policies. JBW (talk) 20:01, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
