Then please explain to me how Prostores has their page listed? This is a company, touting how they came into existence. Is there a problem with me trying to add content to their page, showing examples of web pages?

I'm sorry you feel that "this is not contributing to Prostores page" but you could not be more wrong. This is the issue with Wiki in that you do not allow for small business to share success stories, strictly to help out others. It's ashame and I hope you will reconsider.
 * Whatever gives you the idea that Wikipedia should "allow small business to share success stories"? We're an encyclopedia, not a marketing platform for small business. You'll need to find another venue to do that. --jpgordon:==( o ) 15:07, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Yes, please contiunue with teh process of a name change as i am trying to work with you to show that I am truly trying to share a prostores template based small business idea with the masses. THis is in effort to educate small business owners and in turn, show them some capabilities of owning a website. Please continue. Best, Chris

To whom it may concern, I am the owner of CollegiateLiving.com and am trying to share my webstore with those interested in learning more about Prostores and its capabilities. I have said nothing to promote my store at all, and am strictly trying to use my store as an example of a 100% customized Prostores webstore. Please let me know if I am in error of doing something wrong as I will do anything I can to correct the issue. I feel that Prostores is a great resource and I am trying to share one example of how a small business can succeed with the correct tools. Please advise me on next steps.
 * You may not put up articles about yourself, your website, your company, your band, or anything else about yourself. Now, do you still want to bother with a name change? What else do you wish to contribute to Wikipedia? --jpgordon:==( o ) 22:05, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" is strongly discouraged. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. -- zzuuzz (talk) 15:11, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I absolutely want to continue with a name change and continue to figure his out. I want to contribute to the wiki by showing an example of how a Prostores small business template can work for small business owners as an example. Please advise and provide more detail as your not giving me enough information to make a wise decision. Best, Chris

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Collegiate Living
A tag has been placed on User:Collegiate Living, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous 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 the guidelines on spam as well as FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.  ceran  thor 13:31, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
