January 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from File:JerryGumbert.jpg, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. In regards to your question, please use an image copyright tag.

File permission problem with File:THeaton.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:THeaton.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk) 08:03, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

Borrell Associates and Kip Cassino

Welcome!

Hello, Hollygirl78, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Tutorial
• How to edit a page and How to develop articles
• How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
• Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{helpme}} before the question. Again, welcome!

Please be careful when you add to articles about topics you are involved with. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, and therefore does not allow anything that reads like an advertisement. Text like the second half of Kip Cassino and most of Borrell Associates, are normally removed on sight. Seeing that you are new to Wikipedia, I didn't want to do this because it might have looked rude. Instead, I would like to invite you to rephrase these articles yourself, ideally after reading these parts of our policy:

• WP:Conflict of interest
• WP:NOTADVERTISING
• WP:Manual of Style (words to watch)
• Wikipedia:Verifiability (not that blogs aren't reliable sources per our standards, nor is the web page of the company an article is about)

If you need help, please don't hesitate to contact me. I am watching your talk page (this page), so I will notice if you put a question here. Thank you. --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 12:43, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

P.S.: The same applies to Terry Heaton and Jerry Gumbert. Please don't take this whole thing personally – my aim here is to help building a reliable and impartial encyclopaedia, and you are very welcome to help. There are just a few rules to observe. Thanks, ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 13:16, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Kip Cassino

The article Kip Cassino has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails notability due to lack of reliable sources. All references are to blogs, directories, or self-published pages about the company. None are specifically about the subject of this biography.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Kudpung (talk) 07:27, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Borrell Associates

A tag has been placed on Borrell Associates, 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 an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Orphaned non-free image File:Borrelllogo.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Borrelllogo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:

• I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
• I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
• If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
• To opt out of these bot messages, add {{bots|deny=DASHBot}} to your talk page.

Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 05:37, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Hello,

I have noticed that all of my pages that I've created have been deleted. I am really stunned. Terry Heaton, Jerry Gumbert, Kip Cassino, Gordon Borrell, and Borrell Associates are true movers and shakers in the world of local media. All are deeply involved in moving old media to new media and are actively promoting and causing enormous innovations in the world of media -- you know, things like Wikipedia. Some of the commentary from editors has been really appalling. A walled garden of spam? Conflict of interest? I've only ever even met one of these people in person and I live about a thousand miles away from all of them. I am a stay-at-home wife on no one's payroll. And offline sources aren't ok? So if you get quoted in the Wall Street Journal or some other article that doesn't put every word of every article online, that's not good enough? After reading everything left here, I can kinda sorta see why some of this happened -- but Terry Heaton, who is an author on tons of college syllabi, a university professor, an expert in the field, appears to have been deleted simply because I wrote his page. This is a grave injustice and seems to suggest that Wikipedia is ruled by a small group of editors with nothing else going on in their lives, rather than objective standards. Further, his page was up for a couple of YEARS. Why now? I honestly thought I was what Wikipedia is all about -- an ordinary person with a deep interest and passion in a subject adding to the collective knowledge of the world by organizing that information in one place. This is gravely disappointing, sad and sick, and I guess now I see why my stepkids' teachers don't allow Wikipedia as a source for anything.

Please tell me I'm wrong. This is soooooo disappointing.
