Help requested

I would like to revise the Water Forest Press Publishing page per guidelines. Can I begin this page again and have these delete templates removed? I am hoping this is the appropriate talk page to post on for help with revisions. Also, how would I go about contacting the Admin who posted to me last night? I can't find any links to email. Thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by Victoriasky (talkcontribs)

If you're talking about User:OliverTwisted, he/she has chosen not to use e-mail; just leave a message on their talk page. As to your article: it looks strongly like you have a conflict of interest on that particular topic, and therefore should not be doing anything about it. If the press is genuinely notable, somebody without a conflict of interest will eventually create an article about it. (Repeated recreations of advertisements, on the other hand, lead to an article title being blocked to prevent recreation (we call it "salting" as in "salting the earth"). --Orange Mike | Talk 19:38, 29 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
Hi. Thanks for getting right back to me. I do have a revision ready that is not an advertisement. As a new user, I blooped and learn by trial and error. If you do not want me to post my revision, is there a way to remove the topic: Water Forest press publishing entirely from the Wikipedia and google search page? I do have a reputable small press and do not want readers to see a deleted page on Wikipedia or on google with my name on it. Thanks for your help. (had I realized last night how to communicate, this may have been avoided:-) I inadvertently tried to revise the page before deletion, while they probably thought I was ignoring their warnings and simply removing tags, which was not the case. I was trying to conform to guidelines.
The deleted pages do not show up on Google, don't worry. Even if it got indexed they will probably remove it. --Unpopular Opinion (talk) 20:03, 29 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
Google crawls Wikipedia every day and will update or delete material accordingly. I was not the admin member who deleted the page on Water Forest Press Publishing, I was only the New Page Patrol editor who happened to first see the article. The article was tagged due to marketing verbage and an apparent WP:COI with the author (Victoriasky). If the article is reintroduced after addressing the WP:SPAM issue, and has included sources showing notability, as listed here: WP:ORG and WP:RS, it should not be tagged for deletion. If these issues are not addressed, the article will more than likely go through the same process with another editor. I would be happy to work with the author, and we can communicate via our respective talk pages, rather than email. Best regards for the new year. --OliverTwisted (Talk) (Stuff) 20:46, 29 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
Hi thank you ! Would you like to see the article here? I think it's inspiring and of interest for others to read but that's just me :-) thanks again for your help !! lol I'm still learning which edit is for which box - sorry - replied 3x.
No problem. (Don't forget to sign your posts.) I created a page for you here: User:Victoriasky/Water. Feel free to create your article on this page until it is ready to go live and be evaluated. Best regards. --OliverTwisted (Talk) (Stuff) 21:00, 29 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hi. I went ahead and created the page, to avoid any COI issues. Please add sources as they become available. I can't stress enough the importance of this for this article's long term survival. Best regards. --OliverTwisted (Talk) (Stuff) 01:41, 31 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

I can't thank you enough for all your help. I'll transfer info and start shaping this page up. Victoriasky (talk) 02:58, 31 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): rule: '\bblog(?:cu|fa|harbor|mybrain|post|savy|spot|townhall)?\.com\b' (link(s): http://drshaleenkumarsingh.blogspot.com/2008/08/readers-response-to-hudson-viewpoetry_21.html) . If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, or similar site, then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).

If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks!

Dated cleanup tags

edit

Hi, thanks for your message, SmackBot does not generally add tags, but merely dates those that are already there. IN htis case the tag was added by TexasAndroid. Regards, Rich Farmbrough, 05:19 4 January 2009 (UTC).
