Swami Tattwamayananda moved to draftspace
[edit ]Thanks for your contributions to Swami Tattwamayananda. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and you may have a possible Conflict of Interest. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit for review" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 11:48, 27 January 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

Speedy deletion nomination of Swami Tattwamayananda
[edit ]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 Swami Tattwamayananda 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/Swami Tattwamayananda. 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.

[edit ]Information icon Hello. This is a message to let you know that you have made an edit summary or a comment that did not appear to be appropriate, civil, or otherwise constructive, and it may have been removed.

Information icon Thank you for your work on Swami Tattwamayananda. Not all topics are notable (suitable for a stand-alone Wikipedia article). The Swami Tattwamayananda article does not cite sources establishing notability, so it may get deleted. A source shows that the article topic is notable when it:
- contains significant coverage : it addresses the topic directly and in multiple paragraphs of detail. A source with only trivial or off-topic mentions of the subject doesn't count.
- is a reliable source : it has a reliable publication process, or a suitable expert author (look up the reliability of common sources, or discuss). Newspapers and books usually meet this criteria, company and personal websites usually do not.
- is independent of the subject : it isn't produced by the article's subject or someone similarly affiliated with it. For example, these are not independent: the subject's press releases, autobiographies, website, and interviews.
If you can find notability-establishing sources, please add them: more than one is needed unless the applicable subject-specific notability guideline states otherwise. Specific questions can be answered live at the Teahouse help forum. Thank you. And do not recreate Swami Tattwamayananda. It has been deleted several times. You may be blocked from editing if you keep on creating articles that are not suitable for Wikipedia. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 20:55, 22 February 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
