Hi there
Just a note to follow up on your help desk request. For legal reasons, accounts may not be shared between multiple people. This has to do with the way our GFDL licensing works. You're free to create different accounts for each editor, but those accounts shouldn't be shared or swapped in any way. Also, please remember to follow our policies on conflict of interest and neutrality. Feel free to ask me on my talk page if you have any questions, or just write helpme somewhere on your page, and someone will come along. Best, -- B figura (talk) 23:24, 1 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Hi there. Generally, it's highly frowned upon to write articles about people or organizations that you happen to have ties to. (Whether those ties are familial professional). This is because it's likely that there would be a conflict of interest that could lead to lack of neutrality. (Which is a requirement for any article on Wikipedia).


 * Also, articles need to establish the notability of their subject. The acid test for notability is whether or not there are multiple 3rd party independent reliable sources that discuss the subject in a non-trivial way. (This is because all information in wikipedia must be verifiable). Articles that don't meet these guidelines tend to be speedily deleted. (For more information on how to establish the notability of a person, see this guideline).


 * Lastly, I noticed that you refer to yourself as we. For legal reasons relating to our licensing, accounts on Wikipedia may not be shared, or represent the input of multiple people. (Such accounts are termed 'role accounts', and really aren't generally permitted). If you have more questions, feel free to ask the help desk, or just place helpme on your talk page, and someone will stop by. Best, -- B figura (talk) 00:04, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi again
Hi there Stefan. I think the original article has been deleted (otherwise it should appear somewhere in your Contributions). However, I'm not an admin, so I can't figure out what happened to it without knowing the name of the original article. (Was this the one related to Blissing?). I'd be happy to track one down for you though. (You can do that yourself too, using the list of admins).

But before recreating the article, you probably would need to consider three things. One is, you probably would need more sources to make the article deletion-proof. (Ideally, you'd want a magazine, newspaper, or famous ezine (not blog) article about Blissing). The link you mentioned only references it in passing, which probably won't stand up to the notability criteria for organizations. I'm not sure if you have access to something like Lexis-Nexis, but that might be a good place to start.

The second is you also want to be careful about conflict of interest. (The business' faq gives some good advice on how to write on a subject where you might have a conflict of interest). We tend to heavily discourage people from writing about themselves, or organizations that they run, just because it's really hard to write neutrally about a subject you're close to.

The third is your username. Right now, it matches a company, and might be considered a role account, which is any account that's linked to a position, rather than a person. (For legal reasons (based on the way the GFDL liscense handles contributions), each person needs their own account). From your response it sounds like you're the only person on your account, which is good, but your name could give some people the wrong impression. (Of a role account here only to promote a company, either of which would be bad). If you want to change it, you can head over to here.

Anyway, hope that's not too much info. I'd encourage you to look around for some more sources, and in the meantime, maybe contribute to some of the articles in the entertainment arena maybe? (Oh, and we're all volunteers, so there's no ranking / rewards mechanism other than building up good will.) :) Hope all that helps, and good luck. -- B figura (talk) 03:43, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Stefan Lysenko
Stefan Lysenko (aka Stefan "Contreras" Lysenko) has been and always will be an independent candidate. Stefan is not beholden to the two major parties and will owe nothing to any corporate special interests.

As a member of the AFL-CIO (18 year Screen Actors Guild member as of 2009), he not only supports union workers 100%, he is one of them.

Stefan understands financial institutions because he has a four-year degree in business while he also knows how to curb corporate greed without the influence of unnecessary “big government” control. Stefan will never vote for any tax increases and he will fight for tax reform based on fairness.

Stefan Lysenko is opposed to the wars in the Middle East and will never vote for additional Pentagon funding beyond what is needed for our national defense. He is the only son of an immigrant father, Leonid Lysenko, who fought for the United States in the Korean War to help the US and to also gain his citizenship. His mother E. Contreras Lysenko is from New Mexico.

Stefan Lysenko has just finished his first fun for congress as he ran for the House of Representative seat vacated by Hilda Solis in California’s 32nd district (2009).

Stefan Lysenko was raised in California and attained his business degree from San Jose State University. After traveling the world in 1988, he began a twenty-year career as a working, actor, writer, editor, director and independent filmmaker. In 1999, Stefan Lysenko started a successful café business called Bliss Café which still has its doors open today. Bliss Café is a second home to writers, artists, singers, poets and comedians while it also opens it’s doors to daily AA meetings.

Working on the stage under the direction of Stella Adler for several years starting in the early nineties, the famous Playhouse West became Lysenko's next creative haven. During this period, he worked with such actors as Ashley Judd and Jeff Goldblum. After several New York productions, Lysenko continued his creative work with Academy Award-winning actress, Shelly Winters at The Actor’s Studio and with Lonny Chapman at the Lonny Chapman Group Repertory Theater. Lysenko went on to star in several feature films, including Disney's MAFIA!, THE LAST WILL (opposite Goran Visnjic, “ER”), INTERCEPTORS (opposite Ernie Hudson, “Oz”), and THE STRAY (opposite Michael Madsen and Angie Everheart.) After a chance meeting and discussion with Gena Rowlands, famous for her work with the late John Casavetes, Lysenko set out to shoot his first feature film, BETWEEN CHRISTMAS & NEW YEAR'S. Similar to Casavetes’ style, the script was entirely improvised, and was shot on 16mm film over 7 days, for under $5000 using Lysenko's 10 Commandments Of Bliss. The technique Lysenko created to shot his films is defined as "Blissing" which is when an artist creates by using what he/she has at his/her immediate disposal thus letting the creation create itself. Art is created by using what exists in one's consciousness and immediate environment. Having won multiple awards for his films, Stefan Lysenko is currently in pre production on his fourth feature length independent film while he continues the second year of his masters program in conflict resolution. Stefan Lysenko is married to his partner in life and in business, Sophie Moine Lysenko who is a graduate of UCLA University. www.blissing.com

Proposed deletion of Stefan Lysenko
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Stefan Lysenko, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process&#32; because of the following concern:
 * The whole article is a mess. Stuff like "has been and always will be an independent candidate" is not for Wikipedia. It does not state why he is notable with a jumble of links at the bottom. It is improperly referenced and will need a total rewrite from an expert on the subject to pass a a legitimate encyclopedia article.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
