Hi Dan,

This isn't an 'in-joke', it is a light-hearted way to highlight something prominent in both industries (the often fractious issue of media relations) - not entirely dissimilar to the Golden Raspberries: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Raspberry_Award. The fact that it is an essentially closed 'industry-only' award scheme should not detract from its significance - as the British Press Awards show: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Press_Awards.

I'm not sure I understand the rationale behind the fact that journalists and PRs are involved, hence it 'will' produce coverage. We are asked to prove notability through authority sources - not provide rationale behind said authority mentions. The awards are to return next year and continue as an annual event.

How do you propose we move forward with the page?

Thanks

Speedy deletion nomination of PRmoment


A tag has been placed on PRmoment requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  at the top of the article, immediately below the speedy deletion  tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate), and providing your reasons for contesting on the article's talk page, 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. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

You may want to read the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. Bagheera (talk) 22:29, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

Removing Speedy at PRmoment
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from PRmoment, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 22:30, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Markco media
Hello, Goodandbadpr. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Markco media, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:


 * 1) edit the page
 * 2) remove the text that looks like this:
 * 3) save the page

Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, Skrelk (talk) 10:12, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

Deletion discussion about Markco media
Hello, Goodandbadpr,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Markco media should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Articles for deletion/Markco media.

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks, Skrelk (talk) 10:52, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

COI / paid editing
You should be aware that paid editing is very much frowned upon here. Your username and edit history strongly suggests you have a close association with the company being paid to promote certain companies. Editing here on behalf of PR agency clients is an obvious conflict of interest and you should really cease doing so immidiately.

I certainly won't out you, but social media, some of the related articles you have tried to create and your username all made it fairly easy to connect the dots. You likely don't need me to go into more detail. I won't progress this to WP:ANI or WP:COIN (I certainly have no interest in embarassing you) but you should probably give topics like these a rest for a bit. Cheers, Stalwart 111  12:11, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing, because this account has been used only for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to Wikipedia policy. Also, your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation, which is also against policy. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, not a free advertising service.


 * What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing other than promoting organisations, groups, companies, products, or people, you will probably not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead. If you do intend to make useful contributions about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:


 * Add the text on your user talk page.
 * Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers 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 edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

Please note that, in order for your request to have a reasonable chance of success, you must address the conflict of interest issue, and make it clear that your editing will not be promotional, and will not be made on behalf of your business or other organisation. If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text below but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

Replaceable fair use File:Mark Pearson on the cover of Spring 2011's Real Business magazine.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Mark Pearson on the cover of Spring 2011's Real Business magazine.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text   below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Peter&#160;James (talk) 10:05, 24 November 2013 (UTC)
