Speedy deletion of Steven Gaines, author

A tag has been placed on Steven Gaines, author, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read our the guidelines on spam as well as the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ for more information.

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 (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 article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Joseph Olshan contradiction?

Hello, I see you updated Joseph Olshan's article to indicate that he lives in South Pomfret, Vermont. Then, you updated Woodstock, Vermont to say he lives in Woodstock. Can you please clarify?

Also, if you are Joseph Olshan, you may want to read info on Conflict of Interest, just as a FYI.

Thanks. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 17:40, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

• Respect copyrights - do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
• Maintain a neutral point of view - this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
• Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced to multiple reliable sources.
• No Sockpuppetry.
• If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
• Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, doing so will result your account or IP being blocked from editing.

The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Thanks for the clarification

That makes sense.. Also, sorry if I came across that I was implying you were doing anything wrong or that you're not a notable author, didn't mean that. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 18:01, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

To answer your question, sure, if you lived there, go ahead. A subject can be listed as a resident in all the places they lived.... --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 18:07, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
