Guidelines

It's good that you're admitting your affiliation with MindFire; it's not always possible to avoid a conflict of interest, but full disclosure helps.

That said, I'm a bit troubled by the use of the word "we" on your userpage. As per policy, any given Wikipedia account is only to be used by one person. If you are in fact one person, I strongly suggest amending your userpage to make this clear; if, on the other hand, this account is being used by more than one person, I strongly suggest that one of you retain it and the rest of you register your own separate accounts.

I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. DS (talk) 14:15, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

Re:Page Deleted

Hi MarkFire2009. Although it may have not been your intent, your article, "Mindfire Solutions", read like an advertisement. Here on Wikipedia, we have a policy in which advertising/spam is speedy deleted per deletion criterion G11. Please note that articles for deletion are judged on their own merit, not in comparison to other articles (See WP:OTHERSTUFF). You are certainly welcome to resubmit the article, but please revise the text so that it complies with the policies and guidelines noted at WP:ADS and WP:MOS; otherwise, you run the risk of having the article deleted again.

Hi you are having trouble with pictures copyrights. To be used here the image must be released under a free license like CC-BY-SA-3.0. You can either follow the instructions in WP:PERMIT, or take a new picture and upload it with a free license. I am talking about File:Mindfire bbsr.gif. I am deleting it until you indicate it can be free. I can help you get it back if you need it. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:20, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

Since there is no action I am going to delete File:Mindfire Corporate Building.gif as free licensed need to be given to use a picture here. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 08:46, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
