@Tom Crandall From HangTenSEO: hi and welcome to Wikipedia! Your article was deleted for a couple of reasons. First it was promotional, more like an advert than an encyclopedia article. Second, all articles on Wikipedia must meet certain criteria to be accepted as notable. In this case the criteria can be found in the General notability guidelines and the notability guidelines for companies and organizations. Essentially there needs to be significant coverage in independent reliable sources ie newspapers, magazines, books, etc which discuss the topic.

If you think the article meets those guidelines you may want to use our Articles for Creation process to write the article in draft space and have an experienced editor review it before it is placed in main space. This will give you more time to work on the article without it being quickly deleted for not meeting Wikipedia's content guidelines. You should also familiarize your self with Wikipedia's policies on paid editing and conflict of interest. Please feel free to contact me on my talk page or {{ping}} me ({{ping|Jbhunley}}) from any talk page. Also, please remember to sign your posts with ~~~~. This will insert your user name and a time stamp when you save the page. You also may want to read this brief tutorial on editing talk pages.

RepairQ

Hello. I understand after reading more in to the way other Wikipedia articles are formatted how the RepairQ page should be changed. I will work on re-doing it tomorrow. Please do not delete it until I have a chance to heavily modify it. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Travish212 (talk • contribs) 03:13, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like it was deleted. Travish212 (talk) 14:25, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Travish212: Hi. The article was deleted for a few of reasons. First it was a copyright violation which means it was not a candidate to move to draft space. Everything you put on Wikipedia must be in your own words and with a few exceptions never published or posted anywhere else. Second, it was promotional, more like an advert than an encyclopedia article. Third, all articles on Wikipedia must meet certain criteria to be accepted as notable. In this case the criteria can be found in the General notability guidelines and the notability guidelines for companies and organizations. Essentially there needs to be significant coverage in independent reliable sources ie newspapers, magazines, books, etc which discuss the topic.

While I appreciate your efforts here, and certainly there shouldn't be two separate dispute resolution attempts going on at one time, I think closing this AN/I thread was premature. The arbitration case will almost certainly be unanimously denied due to prior steps in the WP:DR process not being followed. I encourage you to undo your close of this thread, and notify Nyttend and BrownHairedGirl that you have done so. --Hammersoft (talk) 16:35, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Hammersoft:, Floquenbeam beat me to it [1]. Jbh ^Talk 16:49, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

(e/c) Jbhunley, I intended to ping you at ANI to let you know that I just re-opened the ANI thread, but I forgot to link your name there, though I invoked it 3-4 times. Normally that would have been a wise move, but as Hammersoft says, there's no way they're going to accept the case, and closing the ANI thread means several days of people sitting around getting more unhappy, waiting for the case to be officially declined. --Floquenbeam (talk) 16:51, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No problem. My own reopening edit conflicted with yours. I agree that ANI is where this should be. I have just seen stuff go bad when there is a free for all ANI going on at the same time as a structured RfAr. They can feed on each other particularly when one editor is really worked up as seemed to be the case last night. Cheers! Jbh ^Talk 17:01, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Floquenbeam! I took the liberty of informing Nyttend and BrownHairedGirl of the re-opening. --Hammersoft (talk) 16:55, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I was going to do that next, but I'm too slow for you kids these days with your fancy non-arthritic hands and not-so-easily-confused minds. --Floquenbeam (talk) 16:57, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Floquenbeam: What are we talking about? You know, in 2017 I've upped my skills...now I can forget what I am doing while I am doing it! ;) --Hammersoft (talk) 17:05, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

Thank you for putting the proper edits on my page. Pretty sad that I had to start my own. I have been suffering with mental illness since I was a small child (plus a brain disorder affecting my frontal lobes causing severe learning disabilities) and life has not been fair and I have no friends. I wanted to start this because I want my story to mean something after I'm gone. I do hope my little notoriety as a transgendered person will help me to be heard on my way out from this world. I have a message that I hope brings more love and understanding to people like myself and so many others. Thank you for making the entry correct and maybe someone will be kind enough to tell my whole story for the benefit of all who suffer with gender or mental health issues, trauma, PTSD and much more. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Michaelberke (talk • contribs) 01:40, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
