Greg Horne
To begin with, if you are the Greg Horne who is an actor, you should not be writing a wikipedia page about yourself. Please read WP:COI and WP:AUTO for more information. In addition, if there were a wikipedia page about you, redirecting the existing page to cover both Greg Hornes is not the correct way to handle it. It would be a WP:DiSAMBIG page, or another method to point to both pages. Please stop trying to redirect the page. If you have any questions, you can leave me a question here, and I'll try and help. Thanks! Dayewalker (talk) 22:28, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

WP sometimes does not have a publicist or paid person who updates things. I handle my finances and my publicizing. I would be more than happy to change "facts" that sound like a WP:COI.

I would like help with a disambiguation page. As I believe all Greg Horne's should be organized! Thanks! [edit: greghorne.com]
 * The first thing you would need to do is establish notability with reliable secondary sources. Unless you can show that other Greg Hornes are notable enough to have their own wikipedia page, there's no reason for a disambig page. Dayewalker (talk) 03:11, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

The essential issue becomes one of organization. Organize now, or wind up doing it later. Who is Dayewalker DGAF?

You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved. This applies to articles about you, your achievements, your band, your business, your publications, your website, your relatives, and any other possible conflict of interest.

Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged. If you create such an article, it might be listed on articles for deletion. Deletion is not certain, but many feel strongly that you should not start articles about yourself. This is because independent creation encourages independent validation of both significance and verifiability. All edits to articles must conform to No original research, Neutral point of view, and Verifiability.

If you are not "notable" under Wikipedia guidelines, creating an article about yourself may violate the policy that Wikipedia is not a personal webspace provider and would thus qualify for speedy deletion. If your achievements, etc., are verifiable and genuinely notable, and thus suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. (See Wikipedians with articles.)  Jons63 (talk) 12:03, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

I am a representative for Mr. Horne, as suits the needs for continued revision. All updates and edits will be reviewd, and sources are all verifiable with reasonable ease. Greghorne.wiki (talk) 12:16, 30 September 2008 (UTC)pub.greghorne.wiki

Greg Horne
An article can not be about 2 different people, 1 Article 1 person. The first of the 2 people is not notable and the second one is. Do not readd the first. Jons63 (talk) 12:21, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Notability of Greg Horne
A tag has been placed on Greg Horne requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: 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 this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Jons63 (talk) 12:38, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Please stop
You don't seem to get the point, so I'll try again. Please stop redirecting the Greg Horne page to include yourself. Several editors have made comments on your talk page, which you seem to be ignoring. Wikipedia is not a listing of all people with a certain name, it is an encyclopedia of notable people, places, and events. If you are notable (as per the wikipedia rules on notability), someone will write an article about you. Please don't do it yourself, or try and [[WP:EDITWAR|edit war to change an existing article.

Please read wikipedia's criteria for notability, conflict of interest, and reliable sources before trying to change the article. Simply having your own website and myspace do not make you notable, it must be proven through reliable secondary sources.

Please do not change the Greg Horne page again. What you are doing is disruptive editing, and will lead to a block if you do not stop, and learn the correct policies and rules of wikipedia. Dayewalker (talk) 17:32, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

 * I've tried to discuss this with you, and you refuse to respond or read anything about wikipedia. I'm just going to take this to an admin and see if they can get you to understand. Dayewalker (talk) 22:13, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Edison (talk) 21:45, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

This disruption cannot continue. I suggest you start a page Greg Horne (actor) (by clicking on the redlink to the left) and adding enough information to establish notability within our guidelines. We will help you to distinguish from the other Greg Horne, but you cannot just hijack an existing article, and at present, however well-intentioned you are, you are at risk of being blocked for disruption. Please drop me a line on my talk page (highlighted in red on my signature) if you would like more specific help. -- Rodhull andemu  22:24, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Blocked from editing
Greg: Your recent contributions have highlighted some worrying patterns in your editing at. It has become apparent that, currently, your presence on that article is a disruptive one; I have blocked your account for 5 hours, in order to prevent a continuation of this trend.

You are strongly cautioned to peruse Wikipedia's policies and guidelines with the utmost thoroughness, especially focussing on policies that document how we interact with our fellow editors; good places to start may be: Edit warring; Civility; Dispute resolution.

When the block expires, I'd encourage you to contribute with a refreshed attitude; if you need any assistance at any time, give me a shout. Bear in mind what we're doing here: building an encyclopedia through a collaborative effort. Show your fellow editors and their viewpoints respect, and handle disagreements over article content with serious discussion on the talk page.

 * Well, that's one way of responding I guess - coming back logged out to make the same edit: . So I have blocked this account with no expiry date.  You may be able to persuade someone to unblock you if you can some up with a convincing enough statement that you won't resume what appears on the face of it to be a vanity spamming campaign.
