Speedy deletion of The Urban Shaman
A tag has been placed on The Urban Shaman, 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 blatant 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.

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 article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the article or have a copy emailed to you. &bull; \ / (⁂) 12:12, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

February 2009
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 Urban Shaman has been reverted.

Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): \bfacebook\.com (links: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=10758174396).

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 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) 12:29, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

AfD nomination of The Urban Shaman
I have nominated The Urban Shaman, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Articles for deletion/The Urban Shaman. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. &bull; \ / (⁂) 20:38, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

RESPONSE TO SUGGESTION OF DELETION
Hello, my name is Sophie and I am a fresh out of college journalist. I am writing this as my first Wikipedia page. Forgive me if it's not in the right format. Could you give me some pointers? I am following James Jacoby's progress as The Urban Shaman as it is a very promising and interesting one to watch. I will be continuing to document his progress and success. This article is designed to be a place where people can get a little bit more information about him. It is not designed as an advert of any kind. I only want to have a place people can refer to as a point of reference. That is what an encyclopaedia is for is it not? His work is extremely interesting, evocative and illuminating. There will be a lot of interest in his work and himself over the coming months and years. I will work on the layout and make it more 'encyclopaedic' over the weekend. Thanks.
