Speedy deletion nomination of User:Davesguitargear edit

 

A tag has been placed on User:Davesguitargear requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, and/or activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals. Please note that Wikipedia is not a free web hosting service. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages 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 removed 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. – 1997kB 07:37, 8 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I was trying to contact someone about this. I was going to post my articles on guitar tone tips, however my internet went out, and very quickly the page was deleted. The wife and I had to go to FL for some time because her mon became very ill. If you will not allow me to try this again then just remove everything regarding me.

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

  • the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
  • the block is no longer necessary because you
    1. understand what you have been blocked for,
    2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
    3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. Yamla (talk) 12:16, 24 November 2017 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

  • No, as an encyclopedia, Wikipedia is not an appropriate place to post one's own personal tips, opinion, commentary etc on any subject. As for removing everything regarding you, the user page you wrote has already been deleted so all that's left is this talk page - but user talk pages are not deleted. My guess is that you'd like to leave the site with your account unblocked and this page blanked? If you respond here and make it clear that's what you want and that you will not try to use Wikipedia for publishing your own personal material again, I think we can do that for you.
