Repeating what I typed in my user page: This is Seymour H. Fine and new to Wiki. I believe I am creating a user page. Let's see. I wish to edit the Wiki page that discusses social marketing.

Teahouse talkback: you've got messages!

Hello, Borgew. Your question has been answered at the Teahouse Q&A board. Feel free to reply there!
Please note that all old questions are archived after 2-3 days of inactivity. Message added by Tito Dutta (contact) 17:01, 13 May 2013 (UTC). (You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{teahouse talkback}} template).

Adoption

Did I ever say I was willing to adopt you? In any case you may well not want to be adopted by me since I am cynical, jaded, sarcastic, etc. "Is my article back in review?" Of course not - I deleted it didn't I.

To cut to the chase: I consider that your submission is unsuitable for Wikipedia because it falls firmly into our original research category. Wikipedia is a tertiary resource. Your article was firmly a primary resource. Reviews of your article in academic and other journals would be secondary resources. Even if you managed to switch to tertiary resource style, your contributions would be, to put mildly, deprecated by our COI policies.

Other Wikipedians will be delighted to give you second (and third!) opinions. You have e-mailed JHUbal27 (talk · contribs), someone at the other end of the age range of Wikipedians from you. I would be interested to see his response. You could take Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Social Price to deletion review. You have been to the Teahouse once, I suggest you go there again. Come clean about who you are and what you want to submit and see what people think. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 00:27, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Jcc. I wanted to let you know that I removed the "seeking adoption" userbox from your user page, because you haven't been active for at least a month. When you come back to Wikipedia, feel free to add the userbox back with the code {{Adopt me}}. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! jcc (tea and biscuits) 11:27, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
