Re: StillSmallVoice Network - Nottingham, UK
I've read your comments at the AFD for the article you wrote. There are a couple of things I think you might find useful, beyond the links provided to newcomers above. First, there's a page Help, my article got nominated for deletion!, although it probably isn't wholly useful here. Second, if the article does survive AFD, you might want to rename it to fit the Manual of Style - unless there is more than one StillSmallVoiceNetwork, the location identifier is inappropriate. (Don't bother moving it unless it survives the AFD, though).

As I said at the AFD page, the article strikes me as well-meaning advertisement. I can see that you are new here and might not know some of the processes, but I can tell you that many users probably see the article as an attempt to "spread the word" about your organization. Wikipedia has a catch-22: only organizations that already meet Notability are allowed entries in the encyclopedia, but using the encyclopedia as a way to generate traffic to obtain that notability is usually frowned upon.

Honestly, I'll change my vote to a weak keep if you can improve the advertising tone of the article - I could care less about traffic rankings. I think the article is likely to be deleted on the above notability requirements anyway, however. Good luck, welcome to Wikipedia, and I hope you decide to stay, even if this first experience goes poorly. -- stillnotelf   has a talk page  23:27, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

Your blanking
This is in regards of your edit. I'll try to assume good faith but you make it hard by deceptive edit summary "Minor contents edit".

Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content. It is considered vandalism. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. ←Humus sapiens ну? 01:14, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
