User talk:Governormozena

What can I do to get unblocked and get this page passed? It seems to me that Meg Whitman and others are allowed to post because they are more well known than Steve Mozena. If you need to verify his candidacy, please contact the Secretary of State.Governormozena (talk) 17:35, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Steve Mozena's page was no more promotional than any of the other candidates pages. This is not a neutral encyclopedia if only some of the candidates can have a wikipedia page and others cannot.Governormozena (talk) 17:22, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't know who the other candidates are but if you can point out a promotional article, I'll delete it. Your article very much was promotional. HJ Mitchell  &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?   17:27, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Why are the other candidates allowed to post their information and create pages to support their campaigns, but Steve Mozena is not??Governormozena (talk) 17:13, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Find me one and if it's promotional, I'll zap it. HJ Mitchell  &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?   17:15, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
 * If other candidates have in fact posted their biographical information on Wikipedia, they could be notable independent of the elections.--Supertouch (talk) 19:46, 27 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Meg Whitman's page was begun on June 21, 2004, years before this election, and her notability then was based upon her having been the CEO of e-bay.--Supertouch (talk) 19:55, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Steve Mozena


A tag has been placed on Steve Mozena, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous advertising that 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 general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of Steve Mozena and leave a note on |the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. De728631 (talk) 20:25, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Steve Mozena
A tag has been placed on Steve Mozena, 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, 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. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

 * Your username makes me believe you have a clear conflict of interest and the page you created, re-created and then re-created again served no purpose but to promote this gentleman. If the gentleman is notable, someone will write a neutral article about him, but your use of Wikipedia to promote him, your username and your re-creation a twice-deleted article are unacceptable.

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended or used for publicity and/or promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.

Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but it is considered inappropriate for such groups to use Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.

Probably not. See FAQ/Organization for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, or organization. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?

You are still welcome to write about something other than your company or organization. If you do intend to make useful contributions on some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
 * What can I do now?


 * Add the text below this message box.
 * 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.

If you believe this block was made in error, please see how to appeal a block. HJ Mitchell &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?   23:03, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
