Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Mhiji (talk) 01:39, 21 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

A tag has been placed on Lions Gate Manor 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 a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen (Webdesignbb) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this:

  1. It is possible that you have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization.
  2. Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guideline to avoid editing where you have a conflict of interest. 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. Editor account appears to be created to represent and/or start articles on behalf of various bed and breakfast businesses on Wikipedia Cind.amuse 22:27, 3 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Adobe on Green Street

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.

A tag has been placed on Adobe on Green Street requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Elm Creek Manor

A tag has been placed on Elm Creek Manor, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), 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.

  Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Adobe on Green Street, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Cind.amuse 23:28, 3 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

  1. Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
  2. At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.

Decline reason:

Fred P? As in Fred Pierce, president of BnB Websites, designer of the websites for two of the B&Bs you created articles for, and whose website bnbwebsites.com announces "Watch live as we take you step-by-step how to submit your inn to Wikipedia."? I suggest removing that unless your clients want to find their websites blacklisted from Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a marketing platform, and we don't tolerate it being used as one. --jpgordon::==( o ) 00:06, 5 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

I was unaware that my username of websitesbb was violating any wikipedia rules. I apologize for that. I would like to change my username to fredp2010 but my IP is blocked as well and I can't do anything. Please allow me to change my username.

I personally visit a lot of bed and breakfasts and I like putting the history of the inn on wikipedia. I feel that this isn't violating any rule on wikipedia. All I do is put the history of the building and maybe surrounding areas.

If I can't get the username changed, then can you please unblock the IP so other users are not blocked from wikipedia?

Thanks for getting me unblocked as soon as possible.

  • Do you realize that you are exploiting Wikipedia for financial gain? Or that you are hindering the existence of any bed and breakfast organizations being presented in the future? Wikipedia cannot be used for promotional purposes, and this is essentially why you are editing here. There is often semantic confusion over the definition of unambiguous publicity, promotion, and advertising. One of the ways to better understand the criteria pertaining to appropriate inclusion on Wikipedia is to determine if the article has been written or edited in an attempt to manage the public's perception of the subject of the article. Mere publicity, promotion, and advertising need not reference sales or reviews pertaining to the quality or feasibility of the subject of the article. Simply announcing the existence of a subject prior to notability would be considered promotional and inappropriate.

    The articles that you have created have not presented or indicated significance or importance. Wikipedia requires notability, presented through significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Wikipedia cannot accept articles based on original research, or information that has not been published elsewhere. Articles must be based on reliable secondary and third-party sources before inclusion on Wikipedia can be accepted. Your time on Wikipedia would be greatly enhanced if you would read, review, and come to an understanding of the policies and guidelines linked at the top of your talk page. Essentially, what you are attempting to do here is ask people to pay you to jump off the high dive, before you have learned to tread water. Hope this helps.
