Hello, Mcalison, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Speedy deletion nomination of Seventh Generation Fund

A tag has been placed on Seventh Generation Fund requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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), 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 admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Speedy deletion nomination of Freddy Ehlers

A tag has been placed on Freddy Ehlers, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. 99.149.84.135 (talk) 22:56, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

This kind of activity is considered spamming and is forbidden by Wikipedia policies. Wikipedia is NOT a "repository of links" or a "vehicle for advertising". thankyou--Hu12 (talk) 20:33, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -gadfium 05:13, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make constructive contributions. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. gadfium 20:29, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

I honestly did not think this was spamming and apologize. I sincerely thought the videos added value. I do not represent the Global Oneness Project and was just contracting for them. It was my idea that since they are a non-profit and license all their videos using Creative Commons and give DVDs away for free to anyone who asks, that Wikipedia might be another way to both enhance the Wikipedia pages of their interviewees and to make the videos more widely available. And I also did not see this as a way to generate traffic or advertise or promote the GOP. They don't even have their own Wikipedia page! I can't imagine we'd get much as a lot of the interviewees are not that well known and the links are at the bottom of the page. I just thought it would be nice for people who had a deep interest in the person to have the interview as another resource. Please let me know if you have any further questions. I was very surprised at how hostile the comments were. I simply misunderstood Wikipedia's guidelines (which I read). Thank you.

Decline reason:

Since your only purpose for participating at Wikipedia appears to be promoting this web site, and since you seem to be saying that, if unblocked, you would continue editing in a similar way, I don't feel able to unblock you. However, a week is not a long block, and, when it expires, if you'd like to volunteer to help write the encyclopedia, you'll be entirely welcome.

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

[[Thank you for reviewing my request. I'm confused again. Isn't any contribution to Wikipedia significant? I really don't understand! What if I only knew about a few really great websites on a very narrow topic but felt it would be of interest to Wikipedia readers. Would I not be able to share the links? What is considered admissable? We have nothing to gain from this. We have great organic search results already so don't need that. We have an Adwords program for traffic and I knew ahead of time about Wikipedia's nofollow rule. I simply wanted to enhance our interviewee's pages. I could add more, but the GOP really just interviewed them.

Thank you again.

The way to contribute to Wikipedia is to add information by writing sentences and paragraphs, citing the best available sources for that information. Wikipedia is not a directory of links. If your web site is indeed the best source of information, it is inevitable that it will be cited by other users who are independent of that site. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 01:10, 11 September 2009 (UTC)

{{unblock| Thank you. I was sincerely trying to add valuable content and don't clearly understand the difference between links and sentences and paragraphs. I understand the need to enforce a level of contribution to ensure the integrity of Wikipedia and did not intend to violate this.

Also, the Global Oneness Project is not my site. I was a contractor and had the idea to share the content because it is Creative Commons with the hope that it would be seen as valuable.]]
