Style
Regarding the page Dead Zones, some of the edits you are making are relatively harmless but fall in contravention of WP:Style. Have a look at that page. Also, it is not appropriate for an article to link to other pages more than once unless it refers to the other page on a different subject, which is clearly not the case.

Unspecified source for Image:Hermosa beach in winter.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Hermosa beach in winter.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then you need to specify who owns the copyright, please. If you got it from a website, then a link to the website where it was taken from with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 04:29, 15 January 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NMajdan &bull;talk 04:29, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Hermosa_beach_plaza.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Hermosa_beach_plaza.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear.

License tagging for Image:Deadzonesmap.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Deadzonesmap.JPG. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 06:07, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Re: DeadZones.com
Hi Estrategy, I have done just a little research and found the CEO profile on Google: https://profiles.google.com/u/0/j.cohner/about for deadzone it does say "nationally recognized crowd sourcing web sites" specific references that underpin this claim referenced in your article may strengthen your case, ie specialist media/ newspaper showing why this business is particularly notable might help your case.

Estrategy on this site http://www.meebo.com/profile/estrategy the CEO of deadzone uses this handle, a neutral point of view in articles is important on Wikipedia this connection does not strengthen your case not to delete the page, because of conflict of interest.

I think the 'encyclopaedic' merits of the article could be improved, as Dennis Brown advised on the 12 May in the articles talk page. The consumer advocacy role interested me and if you are able to evidence the impact of this, this too may also help improve the usefulness and weight given to the page, all the best with your editing, may I recommend the adopt a user program: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adopt-a-User to help improve the quality of articles. At the moment my position on the deletion is neutral, however should your references show third party reporting on significant social benefit or nationally recognised pioneering work, I am open to reconsider and may yet support inclusion. Kind regards Mike
