Welcome

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions seem to be advertising or for promotional purposes. Wikipedia does not allow advertising in articles. For more information on this, see

I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

A tag has been placed on MyCommunityLink, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because it is an article about a certain website, blog, forum, or other web content that does not assert the importance or significance of that web location. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles, as well as notability guidelines for websites. Please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on Talk:MyCommunityLink. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Thanks. — ERcheck (talk) 04:11, 6 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

You inquired as to why MyCommunityLink was deleted. As noted above, it fell under the criteria 7 for speedy deletion of articles, in particular notability. — ERcheck (talk) 03:31, 7 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

You have recently recreated or reposted material at MyCommunityLink which previously was deleted in accordance with Wikipedia's deletion policies. Please do not recreate this article without prior approval from an administrator or you may be blocked from editing. We ask that you respect what Wikipedia is not. If you disagree with the article's deletion, you may seek an independent deletion review. Leuko 17:09, 6 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to List of social networking websites, did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted by ClueBot.

If you believe there has been a mistake and would like to report a false positive, please report it here and then remove this warning from your talk page. If your edit was not vandalism, please feel free to make your edit again after reporting it.

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content which gains a consensus among editors.

  Please stop. If you continue to blank out (or delete portions of) page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, you will be blocked from editing. Leuko 17:10, 6 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from articles you have created yourself, as you did with MyCommunityLink. Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion. Thank you. Spryde 17:14, 6 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Reasoning for deletion

edit

FYI, see WP:CORP for the criteria for inclusion of that site. You fail to have any reliable secondary sources (PR sites do not count) and the notability of the site is questionable for the same reasons. Come back with both of those and it will be retained. Spryde 17:19, 6 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Also, adding ?source=Wikipedia to the end of external links kind of sets off our spam radar... Leuko 17:28, 6 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Responding to your message on my talk page

edit

You do not have to pay a PR firm to write an article on you as it would not be considered an reliable source. What would need to happen is the site be in the mainstream news like CNN, Reuters, or a tech journal. Simply being patent pending and around for 4 years does not make something notable. There are suprisingly few criteria for being included into Wikipedia and being notable is one. Having a reliable source is two. Those two things will keep the article maintained here. Also, make sure the article does NOT look like a blatant advertisement.

Finally, you can sign your comments by putting four tildes at the end of your text. Spryde 17:50, 6 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

  If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors,
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
    and you must always:
  4. avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Business' FAQ. For more details about what constitutes a conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Conflict of Interest. Thank you. Leuko 18:13, 6 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for violating the three-revert rule at List of social networking websites.
