InfoStor SPAM
[edit]I've noticed that you have posted many links to your employer (InfoStor) in the Computer Storage related Wikipedia subjects. Please don't. This is self-promotion and it runs against the spirit of Wikipedia. Please see WP:SPAM, and WP:COI before posting any more links to your web page. -- Austin Murphy 19:31, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on InfoStor magazine, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. If you can indicate why InfoStor magazine is really not blatant advertising, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:InfoStor magazine. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11 under General criteria. You might also want to read the guidelines on spam. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that admins should wait a while for you to assert why the article is not blatant advertising, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and then immediately add such an assertion. It is also a very good idea to add citations from reliable sources to ensure that your article will be verifiable.
Likewise for the identical article at InfoStor. Fan-1967 18:32, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit]Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming, and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising. Thanks. JonHarder talk 19:46, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
