Your contributed article, Westrand, Gauteng

If 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.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Westrand, Gauteng. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – West Rand District Municipality. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at West Rand District Municipality – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, 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. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. 220 of ^Borg 09:00, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 10:54, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Let's get this clear. You are not allowed to use Wikipedia to tell the world about Spidersweb, or about www.kagisotownship.co.za or about www.westrand.org.za. In fact, you are not allowed to use Wikipedia to promote or advertise ANYTHING. Each time you create a new account and try to use it to post spam to Wikipedia, you are wasting your time, because each account will be blocked and your spam will be deleted. That means that you would do a more effective job of advertising your business if you spent the same amount of time doing so on a web site where advertising is permitted, instead of wasting your time on one where it isn't. Got that? Good. JamesBWatson (talk) 11:20, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

• I have just found (and reverted) your protected edit request at Talk:Kagiso. Did you not realise that the whole reason why the article is protected is to stop you from editing it? JamesBWatson (talk) 11:23, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

I have been working for kagiso for 20 years now and we have spent almost 1 million in putting it online, I feel we deserve to have a word because we have done so much for it.
