Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Phlegm Rooster (talk) 04:48, 7 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I don't know where you ever got the idea that notability standards don't apply to schools, but that's nonsense. Notability standards apply to everything. It's just that different standards apply to different categories. You failed to supply references from independent, reliable sources that show why others think this company is notable. The same applies to the parent company and its other subsidiaries. The articles you wrote were promotional in nature, and therefore not allowed. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 16:29, 7 June 2008 (UTC)


 * If you can come up with some references from reliable sources, such as aviation magazines that write articles about this school, you can post it again. We just need 'independent sources to prove that this flight school, or any other such school, are notable. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 19:54, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. While objective prose about products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for advertising or promotion. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 05:55, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 05:56, 7 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Do not erase warning messages placed on your talk page. They are a record for other editors and administrators to consider in regard to your future contributions. Erasing these messages is 1) futile, as you can see, as they are resily replaced; and 2) seen as an act of bad faith. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 16:48, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

US Flight Academy
Hi there,

While I appreciate the effort you put into the newest version of this article, I have speedily-deleted is per criteria A7, which covers articles about individuals/groups/companies/etc. that do not contain a claim to notability. In this case, a quick report about a innocuous runway accident involving one of its planes does not say anything about the notability of the school itself.

I see that you are working on a number of other aviation-related articles, though--if you haven't already, I'd like to suggest that joining WikiProject Aviation might be a good way to learn a lot about working on Wikipedia while writing about something you clearly have an interest in.

Good luck, and please let me know if you have any questions! -- jonny - m t  03:59, 9 June 2008 (UTC)


 * It appears that articles about this school aren't going to fly (sorry, couldn't resist the pun) unless you add several references from independent, reliable sources. You can try again, but you really need to do a fairly thorough Google or Yahoo search about the school. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 04:12, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

New messages
What I do on mine is open up my talk page, ckick on the "History" tab at the top, then click on the "Compare selected versions" button - it will automatically select the most recent change. You can go backward through changes to your page by click on the "←Older edit" link. This works on articles, too. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 05:18, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Conflict of interest?
You've just indicated on your user page that you are a flight instructor. If you work for or with US Flight Academy, then your work with that article constitutes a conflict of interest. Please read the COI article before proceeding further. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 16:15, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Sign up here, read up on the rules here, and discuss the contest here. The first round of the contest may not start until September 1st-unless a large number of editors signup and are ready to compete immediately!
