CobaltBlueTony™ talk already talked to me edit

Thanks LittleOldMe,

I have already been in talks with CobaltBlueTony about this too. I'm going to read more about this in the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:ORG as suggested by him (I presume it's him).

Wikipedia is not a listing of charities, or a place to solicit support or donations. It is an encyclopedia, and as such, it is a tertiary source for general knowledge of the world. Specific organizations like yours must demonstrate notability to be considered for inclusion according to a specific set of criteria. Copyright infringement notwithstanding, your organization's article possessed no assertions of notability and would have been subjected to other criteria for speedy deletion.

It is generally considered bad practice to edit on behalf of your company or organization. Please read the organization and business-related fequently asked questions and Wikipedia's policy on conflict of interest editing. Your original user name was more acceptable to our username policy than this current one; in fact, this name violates it and might be blocked. I would highly recommend that you go back to your original account. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 14:27, 25 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
