Image Tagging Image:Creotweez.gif

[edit]
Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Creotweez.gif. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Your comments on Alcamari's page

[edit]

Hi, first, please place new comments at the bottom where they will be seen.

Second, you can sign your posts by typing four tildes (~) at the end.

Third, the reason you got vandalism warnings is because the content you added to Paris Hilton was inappropriate for the article. Her case and Scooter Libby's have nothing to do with each other, and Wikipedia articles aren't the place for personal musings. Hope this clears things up. Exploding Boy 17:04, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In response to your E-mails, I was not threatening you; they were warnings advising you to stop. As Exploding Boy said above, Libby and Paris Hilton have nothing to do with each other, so the information you added is irrelevant. Also, I am not an administrator.

Your comments on my page

[edit]

If you have modified your signature to remove linking to your user page, please change it; your signature should link to your user page for other editors' convenience. Otherwise, please ensure that you are typing four tildes to sign your posts (not just date stamp them).

As for Paris Hilton, yes there was controversy over her legal issues, but legal issues alone are not a sufficient link between her and Scooter Libby. Had Libby been arrested for driving drunk and violating his probation by driving on a suspened license, then maybe. Otherwise, the link is far too tenuous. As you yourself say, it's irrelevant. It doesn't belong in the Paris Hilton article, and similar musings about Hilton wouldn't belong in the Scooter Libby article either. Nor would musings about the length of Martha Stewart's sentence belong in either article. Do you see where this is going? Exploding Boy 18:08, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest policy

[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. 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. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant 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. --Ronz (talk) 02:03, 25 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]
Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended or used for publicity and/or promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.

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, celebrity or other well-known individual, 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 it is considered inappropriate for such groups to use 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. See WP:FAQ/Organization 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, or organization. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.

What can I do now?

You are still welcome to write about something other than your company or organization. If you do intend to make useful contributions on 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.
If you believe this block was made in error, please see how to appeal a block. Orange Mike | Talk 16:48, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
