Welcome!

Or, you can just type help me on this page, followed by your question, 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!

Proposed deletion of Ethan Cross


The article Ethan Cross has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp/dated tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one.  Velella  Velella Talk 22:50, 10 August 2016 (UTC)

August 2016
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Ethan Cross has been reverted. Your edit here to Ethan Cross 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 (https://www.facebook.com/ethan.cross.927/about) 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) 22:59, 10 August 2016 (UTC)

There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  20:39, 12 August 2016 (UTC)

Apologies
Hello moderators, I'm very sorry for this whole mess. I will remove the page (or have you delete it, if you will), as it is my fault that I did not fully understand the rules when I read them. For clarification, I am not Ethan Cross, but his assistant. I did notice, however, when I was first creating the page, that there was an option for someone else to make it, whom I assume to be a Wikipedia contributor that understands the rules. Is there any way for me to contact them with the full list of links I've gathered for use for them to create the page? Thank you, and sorry for all the trouble.
 * Since the article has been created, it is now being discussed as to whether the subject is notable. So far, the evidence you've offered is pretty feeble. If he is so famous and sells so well (where?), why are there no links to articles in Publishers Weekly and other trade publications? -- Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  00:34, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
 * I was actually going to put in the seller list as well as interviews and rankings today when I received the alert that I could no longer edit the page.
