The article Jane Fowler has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Callanecc (talk) 09:51, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

September 2012 edit
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Buckingham Gate, you may be blocked from editing. DanielRigal (talk) 20:50, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
This is your last warning. The next time you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising, as you did at Finsbury Circus, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. DanielRigal (talk) 21:00, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
Your addition to Tate Britain has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text, or images borrowed from other websites, or printed material without a verifiable license; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. In addition to spamming you are adding chunks of content taken from other sources. For example the entirety of your addition to Tate Britain, apart for the bit spamming for Dome Consulting, was taken verbatim from the Evening Standard[1] in apparent violation of their copyright.

Daniel, thank you and sorry you're not happy with my edits. I've tried to add additional information about construction projects, where the information is missing. If I add a reference, will that be ok. I don't mean to spam, so I'm really sorry that's what it looks like. How can I mention who the commissioning managers and key project owners are though? Or am I simply not allowed to say that? I think it's important to the projects and the news about the constructions, but I don't want to break the wiki rules. If you're able to advise me, I will do my best to get this right. Really sorry to have caused you problems, but any advice you can give me would be much appreciated.

- In every single case your edits today were promoting Dome Consulting. In some cases the work Dome was carrying out was rather minor. The promotional intent was clear: to shoehorn as many links to Dome's website as possible. It is not like you were working through a list of major buildings adding information about many different construction companies. You were only interested in Dome for some reason.
- To make matters worse you tried to make it look like you were adding legitimate content by pasting in whole paragraphs from news sites. That is copyright violation. Copyright is something Wikipedia has to take very seriously for legal reasons.
- Please read WP:SPAM and WP:Copyvio for more information. If you have any sort of business relationship with Dome then please also read WP:COI.
- Please be aware that if you are asking for advice on how to use Wikipedia for promoting companies within the rules then the the only advice I can give you is to give up. Wikipedia's policies on neutrality simply do not allow for promotional editing. There is no way to do it within the rules. --DanielRigal (talk) 21:55, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
