Please don't blank articles, if you feel an article is inaccurate try editing it to improve accuracy, if you feel an article is unnecessary add a Deletion template and Wiki admin will asess the page in question. - Jeffrey Mall | Talk2Me | BNosey - 01:10, 18 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not vandalize pages, as you did with this edit to DW-link. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. Jeffrey Mall | Talk2Me | BNosey - 01:16, 18 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Even so, any unprotected article that has been blanked can be restored and/or viewed by anyone. Please only use deletion templates in the future after reading the Deletion policy, as blanking pages looks to any Wiki user like vandalism and will be treated as so. Thanks. - Jeffrey Mall | Talk2Me | BNosey - 12:45, 18 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

"As a general comment about wikipedia, I am unimpressed with my first (and what will be last) experience. At a glance it would appear that the moderators, are intent on keeping a good page growth rate, rather than ensuring concise, accurate information is presented in the articles."

You haven't made any edits in a while, so perhaps you've made good on your promise. That's too bad. It appears you came aboard with the best of intentions but a poor understanding of how Wikipedia works. They try to warn you with the text placed near the "Save page" button, but who reads all that stuff. I sure didn't at first. Anyway, I'd like to try to entice you to come back. The personal correspondence you claim with Mr. Weagle might be helpful and your desire to get the article right certainly will be. Of course, everything that appears in Wikipedia must be independently verifiable, but your inside track can make accomplishing that more efficient.
If you check, you'll quickly see that I've voted to delete the article as redundant, and been editing it anyway. I also like to get things right. If the article is kept, I'll suggest we merge it into the existing bicycle suspension article. As soon as the content is too big to reside there, I'll happily endorse splitting it back out again. That has worked will in the past with no objections.
I apologize for the long and rambling message, and I hope you come back and help me write a correct explanation of the "virtual pivot axis." -AndrewDressel (talk) 14:19, 30 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Edmundhall

edit
 

A tag has been placed on User:Edmundhall, 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, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Peacock (talk) 20:51, 31 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
