Speedy deletion nomination of Shouterbox Studios
editIf this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Shouterbox Studios requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 08:48, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Shouterbox Studios with this edit, you may be blocked from editing. ♥ Solarra ♥ ♪ Talk ♪ ߷ ♀ Contribs ♀ 09:36, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
Dafuq? I created the page. I didn't vandalized. I edited it. --ShouterBox (talk) 09:37, 7 April 2013 (UTC) Do you understand now, Solarra?
Hi. I'm sorry you're having a hard time here - please understand, however, that nobody is after you personally, and the fact that the article you created is tagged for deletion has nothing to do with you. Please read this to get some basic knowledge about what is required for a Wikipedia article to be acceptable. Please also read this information about editing an article about a subject closely related to yourself. Thank you, --bonadea contributions talk 09:44, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
I see. :) Hope that my page is still up. I try my best in future

Still don't delete my page, plz?
Hello, ShouterBox. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. ♥ Solarra ♥ ♪ Talk ♪ ߷ ♀ Contribs ♀ 09:55, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

- Why can't I edit Wikipedia?
Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, website or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but such groups are generally discouraged from using Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.
- Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?
Probably not, although if you can demonstrate a pattern of future editing in strict accordance with our neutral point of view policy, you may be granted this right. See Wikipedia's FAQ for Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, organization, or clients. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again.
- What can I do now?
If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you will probably not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
If you do intend to make useful contributions about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
- Add the text
{{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}}
on your user talk page. - Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
- Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
- Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
- Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
{{unblock|Your reason here}}
below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 10:17, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
IAMNOWPISSED!!!!!! Ok. I am just sorry, i can't understand why am i blocked. Because i try to be nice
I don't fucking like Wikipedia anymore.

Some help
editFirst, nobody has anything against you. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia of notable topics, not a directory of businesses. Having an article on Wikipedia does not mean you "made it" nor can this project be used to promote a business. The subject of an article must be already notable. The mere existence of a business is not sufficient - it must meet strict notability guidelines. The fact that you believe your new and un-notable business should have an article is exactly the reasons behind our conflict of interest guidelines. Someday when your business meets those requirement, somebody else will write about it - not you, and definitely not now. (✉→BWilkins←✎) 10:17, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
