Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page The Knot (company) has been reverted. Your edit here to The Knot (company) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://pandce.proboards.com/index.cgi) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. 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, constructive, 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! --XLinkBot (talk) 16:34, 13 May 2012 (UTC)

Please stop
Hi BumpKathleen. Please stop adding the content to The Knot (company). Give me two minutes and I will try and explain things to you. Thanks SmartSE (talk) 19:43, 14 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Ok, I'll try to be as concise as possible. Basically, content in our articles should be based on what we call reliable sources - these are things like newspapers, books, journal articles. The content you are adding is self-published (forums) or you are interpreting it yourself, what we call original research which is forbidden (alexa). More importantly, the content is clearly not neutral as you (or someone else) make it clear here and here that you are annoyed with the company. If you continue adding it, you will break the three revert rule and likely be temporarily blocked from editing. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks SmartSE (talk) 19:50, 14 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Just to add to this, you might be thinking "Ah-ha, we can just keep changing it back" but it doesn't work like that, if you persist, we'd simply lock the article so only long-term editors could edit it and we'd block your account. --Cameron Scott (talk) 20:05, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at The Knot (company) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Drmies (talk) 19:56, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

Your contributed article, GBCN- Pro Boards


Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, GBCN- Pro Boards. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - The Knot (company). Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at The Knot (company) - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions.  Acroterion   (talk)   02:16, 15 May 2012 (UTC)


 * GBCN- Pro Boards appears to be an attempt to circumvent 3RR, and I'm inclined to block you for this evasion and for soapboxing.   Acroterion   (talk)   02:22, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
