Speedy deletion nomination of Lozio 1928 edit
A tag has been placed on Lozio 1928 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 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
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Request for help edit

Hi sorry, new to this but a web designer for Lozio UK and i've been asked to create aLozio page on wiki as its as renown as Hugo Boss Armani etc just not in the UK yet, so i'm wondering how to create a wiki page similar to Gucci or Armani, assume there is a tempate, at the mo i just got some of the code e.g. vbox to tart up the history, any help appreciated:)
ben @ Lozio
how do i go about getting a page added then as Lozio is an integral part of Italian fashion , such as Gucci, all Lozio would like to do is add a history of the company and explain who they are when somewhere researches the origins of Lozio? how is Lozio different to Gucci, the brand has 144 stores gloablly and originated in Italy.
Please advise how to proceed as we want Lozio in wikipedia to pay homage to the founders, and it's importance into todays world.
We here at Lozio thought it would be better ourselves adding the accurate info, than someone at a later date adding it .
WHY has the article been deleted? Lozio would like a reason not alink to possible reasons, what is so different between Lozio or Gucci or Armani?
Writing an accurate history about Lozio would not damage the name and Jarry to insinate such a notion well... the company was established in Italy in 1928 7 years after Gucci, LOZIO if required will send in proof that this indeed accurate.
regards ben @ Lozio
- Why can't I edit Wikipedia?
Because Wikipedia does not allow any form of spam or other promotion of people, products, companies or other groups (even non-commercial or charitable ones). Wikipedia's use for such purposes will result in the blocking of the account involved. Please read Wikipedia:FAQ/Organization and Wikipedia:Conflict of interest for our rules about this.
In addition, user accounts are for individuals only, not for companies or groups or other collective editing. Your username should reflect this. Usernames that appear to be promotional (such as those that make reference to a company or product) violate our username policy and are grounds for blocking.
- What can I do now?
If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than yourself, your group, company or product, you will not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
If you do intend to make contributions about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
- Add the text
{{unblock|I realise why I was banned i must apologise, in future i will not put articles live without having them vetted by an admin.}}below this message box. - Replace the text "
" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
- Tell us what new username you want to use. Please make sure that your new username does not violate our username policy and check that it has not already been taken here.
- 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 instead you believe that you have been blocked by mistake (i.e., you have not in fact been using Wikipedia for promotional purposes), please write {{unblock|Your reason here}} below this message box and replace the text
"I do not intend to use this site as spamming, I merely want to have a fashion Label added to the index Lozio is a fashion brand with numerous citable websites, please allow me to chat on IRC channels and I will explain. "
with the reason why. See also Wikipedia:Appealing a block for more information. Cirt (talk) 22:41, 17 June 2009 (UTC)Adminhelp edit

Blocking edit
Would you be willing to adhere to a topic ban on Lozio, and a ban on introducing links onto any page relating to fashion? We cannot allow users to spam and advertise on Wikipedia, and if you are willing to provide us some other benefit as an editor here, it would be in your best interest to let us know now. \ Backslash Forwardslash / {talk} 11:36, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
Web design and fashion are my forte , no point being a member if I can't comment on FASHION, i'm sure you see my point even if your legislation forbades it.
Thanks to the guys who helped try and resolve this
- You are welcome to improve our articles on fashion, it's the advertising of a company you are connected with that is innappropriate. If you agree not to advertise Lozio and contribute constructively, it would go a long way towards being unblocked. \ Backslash Forwardslash / {talk} 11:59, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
