A tag has been placed on Rick Drumm, 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.

If you have a conflict of interest and you must declare it. If you work directly or indirectly for Drumm or his organisation, or otherwise are acting on his behalf, you are very strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. If you are paid directly or indirectly by him or his organisation, 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:DorothyP99. The template {{ Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=DorothyP99|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message.

On the images issue, whatever you were told, images can only be used here if they are verifiably public domain or CC BY-SA 3.0 licensed. In practice that means that they are either (genuinely) your own work, explicitly marked as PD (rare except US federal government) or they have been released by the copyright owner via the OTRS system.
The Rick Drumm article was nominated for deletion because of its promotional tone, and I concurred. For example, Drumm is renowned for his numerous contributions to the music products industry is promotional, fact-free and sourced to a clearly promotional and probably self-written Sessions bio. making crucial improvements to the company in management structure, factory efficiency, and marketing Good source, but one writer's opinion is just that; an opinion, not a fact. he founded Traction® Business Coaching, using the Entrepreneurial Operating System® to help businesses achieve their goals. The ® symbol should be avoided; it's usually an indicator of a company posting, looks spammy, and it's not our job to protect registrations or trade marks. The last six words are again a promotional opinion added to a real fact. Drumm has shared two patents with whom?
I'm prepared in principal to restore this as a draft and remove what I think is promotional. Let me know if you wish to proceed on that basis Jimfbleak - talk to me? 06:56, 14 February 2018 (UTC)
