Welcome
Welcome!

Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question or ask me on. Again, welcome! B figura (talk) 17:10, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Chet Holmes
I've removed the deletion tag, as the subject may be notable enough for an article. I did however remove a number of unsourced quotes. Any direct quotes need to be backed up by citations in reliable sources. Best, -- B figura (talk) 17:22, 10 September 2009 (UTC)


 * The goal here would be to have something that's written from a neutral point of view. A biography should explain who a person is, not try to make them sound like the greatest person ever. Take a look at WP:BLP for some guidance. The main key is to be neutral and well-cited. Best, -- B figura  (talk) 17:29, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

September 2009
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. B figura (talk) 17:20, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

FYI conflict of interest guideline
Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself. Please use the template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion, and make your case on the page's. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia in Chet Holmes, Nielsen//NetRatings, or other articles, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * see also: Wikipedia is not a soapbox and What may I not have on my user page?
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. You may also wish to consider changing your username, to avoid giving the impression that your account is to be used for promotional purposes. Regardless, doing so does not exempt you from the proscription against editing articles in which you have a conflict of interest. Thank you. — Athaenara ✉  01:34, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
