Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Jumpstreet Tours

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 Draft:Jumpstreet Tours, 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 encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, 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, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. ♥ Solarra ♥ ^{♪ 話 ♪} ߷ _{♀ 投稿 ♀} 03:43, 16 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Your recent talk page comments on User talk:BF93 were not added to the bottom of the page. New discussion page messages and topics should always be added to the bottom. Your message may have been moved. In the future you can use the "New section" link in the top right. For more details see the talk page guidelines. Thank you. ∰Bellezzasolo✡ Discuss 16:58, 1 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring at Signature Bank

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

The full report is at the edit warring noticeboard. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 15:38, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Welltraveled (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I'm unsure why my account was blocked as part of this matter. If you review Bf93's talk page, you'll see that I'd made multiple attempts to discuss the matter, without any response from the user Welltraveled (talk) 03:14, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

You both edit warred. Attempting to discuss the matter only helps when one stops edit warring. I am declining this request, given the short duration of the block, I would just wait it out. 331dot (talk) 10:34, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

@331dot: Thank you for the getting back to me. What's the proper way to handle a situation like this? If I go ahead and make the edits again, which I believe are valid, I believe the same user will simply undo them again and we'll be back in the same position. Just want to make sure that I'm handling things properly. Welltraveled (talk) 16:01, 4 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Welltraveled, you should not change the article again until you have presented your case on the article talk page and waited a reasonable time for any responses. The disputed material seems to have something to do with Donald Trump. The article has previously been placed under WP:ECP, perhaps because there is a steady stream of very new accounts that want to change it. Your account is one of the very new ones. EdJohnston (talk) 16:08, 4 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

EdJohnston is quite correct. You need to make a case on the article talk page for any disputed changes before making them. 331dot (talk) 16:13, 4 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the information. I've gone ahead and listed on the proposed updates on the Talk page. How long is a 'reasonable' wait time?Welltraveled (talk) 17:28, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@EdJohnston and Jpgordon: - It appears that my account has been blocked despite having opened my edits up to discussion and waiting a number of days before proceeding, only to have them undone again without much any explanation. If the other user isn't willing to engage in conversation, what is the proper way to handle this? Welltraveled (talk) 14:06, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WP:3O filing declined

Please note that I have declined your filing at WP:3O. I did not see any discussion of the content dispute, which is a prerequisite for filing at 3O. Additionally, it appears you may be involved in a conduct dispute, whereas 3O is intended to assist with content disputes. Please feel free to consider other forms of dispute resolution. Cheers. DonIago (talk) 15:36, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Doniago: I opened up discussions on the article's talk page here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Signature_Bank#Proposed_Edits_for_Discussion and waited a reasonable amount of time before making edits again. The user was also made aware of the discussion on their own talk page via another admin https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:BF93#See_Talk:Signature_Bank_for_a_discussion_proposal - is there some other place that this discussion should be taking place? Welltraveled (talk) 14:01, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The discussion steps you've taken are appropriate, but for 3O involvement there needs to be a pre-existing discussion with both parties involved. 3O is essentially a way of requesting mediation. As I noted above, if the other party is unwilling or unable to discuss their edits then you should pursue other forms of DR. Hope this helps. DonIago (talk) 16:56, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

COI

Your continuing focus on Signature Bank is so pronounced, that it is reasonable to ask whether you are a connected contributor, in which case you must declare the connection. Please see our rules on Conflict of Interest If you are writing this for pay or as a staff member of the organization, see also WP:PAID for the necessary disclosures. Such disclosure is not optional. DGG ( talk ) 21:04, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the delay - just noticed this message. No connection, but if there's anything that I should be doing differently with my edits, please let me know. Welltraveled (talk) 22:24, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
