Speedy deletion nomination of Vox Solid Communications
Hello GillianGriffith,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Vox Solid Communications for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. ~ Preceding post created by larsona //Talk// 20:10, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

Welcome!
Hello, GillianGriffith, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Pediped Footwear, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article.&#32;Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! Blythwood (talk) 22:55, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

Hi, Blythwood,

Thanks for your feedback. I'm not associated with pediped but am trying to build my editing history on Wiki as I'm a brand-new user. Because of my location, pediped is a company I'm familiar with as they get lots of coverage in our area, so I thought that would be a good place to start. I also am the only person using my account--I noticed you left me some info on accounts that have multiple users or that represent a company, which mine does not. I did clean up some of the language to make it sound more objective, as I think that may have been the issue. Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks very much for all of your help.

 * Sorry yes, this is a boilerplate message! OK, that's fine. That said, I recommend making sure that articles you write read as little as possible like advertisements or spec writing for advertisements. Personally - and this is just me - when I write articles on companies I tend to stick to basic facts like number of employees and market area - here and here, say, unless I'm dealing with things that happened more than fifty years ago. Also, I'm concerned about one of your photos, as you've marked it as your own work when it comes from the company's website. Unless you personally took the photo and hold rights to it, that's not right for Wikipedia, to which photos can normally only be added if you hold all rights to them or the photographer/company has donated them. (Here's the only exception.) Otherwise, best wishes! Blythwood (talk) 00:24, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Pediped Footwear


A tag has been placed on Pediped Footwear, 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, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic.
