Notability of Camp Moshava, Wild Rose, WI
A tag has been placed on Camp Moshava, Wild Rose, WI requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it 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.

Moshava COI
Howdy JGotz, It's really nice to see someone who is investing time in putting information about Camp Moshava on Wikipedia. Thank you. You might want to read the wikipedia policies regarding editors with potential conflicts of interest regarding the subject of their contributions. If you have a conflict of interest - that's ok. If you are a current or former staff member of Moshava - that's great. You might want to just state that on your user page and be especially careful regarding sourcing your statements and avoiding advertising and promotional language.

Relavant policies you may want to look at include:
 * WP:COI
 * WP:PEACOCK
 * WP:NOADS

If I can help out at all don't hesitate to leave me a message. Joe407 (talk) 11:49, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Rupert Murdoch, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. ''See this edit, which has been reverted. Info in the Fox Broadcasting Company article appears to refute the change you made here.

Upgrading the Wiki
Writing a wiki can be a nightmare with hundreds of censors ready to attack every word you write. Take a look at these summer camp articles if you need examples:

Belvoir Terrace Summer Camp

Camp Lohikan

Maine Teen Camp

The main thing to remember is that you are writing a newspaper article, not a marketing pamphlet or editorial. Actually most wikis look like police reports instead of the more interesting articles at insidecamps.com or epinions.com

"According to reliable sources, who refused to identify themselves lest they get a spanking from their moms, the miscreants who started the food fight in the new dining hall on 4 July 2004 were from the bohemian tribe of bunga-wanga, and not from the Blue Team in the Color Wars as earlier reported on Fox News..."

Also, upload a photo album to wikicommons and add some photos to your wiki article. If you need help, just zip the photos together and send them to me in an email creativecommonssummervacation@gmail.com Summer Vacation (talk) 13:41, 9 March 2011 (UTC)

Join the discussion
Howdy JGotz, You might want to join the discussions that are currently going on at Talk:Camp Moshava (Wisconsin). You also might want to change the disclosure of WP:COI on your userpage given your current position with the camp. Joe407 (talk) 21:07, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

Joe - i feel that you flagging the page is uncalled for because i did not ignore your attempt to reach out. have a look on your talk page and see that i responded enthusiastically to you back in november. Each Moshava camp is a completely separate entity that belongs to the same parent organization. The same way that the Chicago Bulls and the New York Knicks have different wiki pages and are not restrained to simply being on the NBAs page so to camp stone, moshava wild rose and moshava indian orchard should be seperate pages. I would still be interested in getting your help on how to improve the page, please let me know what i can do in order to get the flags removed.


 * My apologies. I guess I was mistaken in identifying you as the current "Director of Website and New Media" for Wild Rose (June 2008 – Present).  Sorry,  Joe407 (talk) 17:37, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

you found an old linkedin page, thank you for bringing it to my attention, i deleted it. can you please give me tips on how to get this page "unflagged"? you clearly have a lot more know-how than i do. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.183.113.254 (talk) 19:25, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Take a look at Amnesia test. What are your thoughts about doing that?  I know it's not easy putting aside things you know but...  Joe407 (talk) 19:53, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

ok i see what you're talking about. i (mistakenly) thought that the camps facebook and youtube pages were not primary sources because they were hosted by facebook and youtube. that explains the absence of the "web presence" section and one citation in the maintenance section. however, i don't understand why the rest of the maintenance section was deleted. also, much of the content from the "director" was deleted. all of that was properly cited to the guidelines of wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.183.113.254 (talk) 20:56, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
