Redirects are placed for a reason and you are not allowed to remove them without WP:CONSENSUS
Please; go get some WP:CONSENSUS before removing redirects that are placed. ♥ Melody ♥ 09:05, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
You get this Consensus by going to the article talk page and discussing the removal of the redirect. ♥ Melody ♥ 09:06, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
It looks like another editor redirected this page elsewhere because the person in the article is not Notable.

Hello Spokeoino. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Ali Niknam, gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being employed (or being compensated in any way) by a person, group, company or organization to promote their interests. Paid advocacy on Wikipedia must be disclosed even if you have not specifically been asked to edit Wikipedia. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.
Paid advocates are strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Spokeoino. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Spokeoino|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}
. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. NenChemist (talk) 02:20, 28 February 2025 (UTC)
- Hello, As mentioned in my talk page, I am not being paid to make edits. In fact, I stopped making direct edits and continued with Wikipedia newbies' suggestions until I gain more editing skill and confidence. I was making edits to Ali Niknam's page because I am a user of his bank Spokeoino (talk) 07:32, 28 February 2025 (UTC)
- Furthermore, please take a look at Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers, the page in question was originally deleted by you without any discussion after I made some edits. If they were not notable, we could have discussed that on the talk page or you could have followed Wikipedia:Guide to deletion
- Please correct me if I'm wrong, advice and guidance are always welcomed here! Spokeoino (talk) 10:20, 28 February 2025 (UTC)
