 * Hi, I've closed the discussion as delete based on my reading of both the consensus and policy and not because of anything against you personally. We really need people to contribute and to that end to post information about themselves, particularly about their likes, dislikes, biases, editing habits, etc.  Lot's of personal information, information about business connections and the like are not particularly helpful to the project except to the extent they tell others exactly what to watch out for (i.e. people immediately assume you are here for the single purpose of writing articles about yourself, your company, your friends, your friends' companies, etc.)  Also, please note that your userpage looked like an article.  Please take a look at the userpages of some of the more experienced users (all of the active admins fall into this category, among others) and see what they have on their userpages for kinds of information.  If you have questions, please don't hesitate to ask me or another experienced editor.  Thanks and I really hope you don't take personal offense at this and that you continue to pursue contributing to the encyclopedia.--Doug.(talk • contribs) 04:52, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed, and I am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's user page guideline. After you look over that guideline, and viewing User:Vaoverland and User:Johnbuckman (two examples of acceptable user pages) could we discuss that concern here? I'd appreciate hearing your views, such as your reasons for wanting this particular page and any alternatives you might accept.

There are several options available for resolving this matter:
 * If you can relieve my concerns through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
 * If you decide to delete the page yourself, please add  to the top of the page in question and an administrator will delete it.

Just so you know
I find it a slap in the face that when I tried to help both you and your "boss", you both ignored the main issues presented on your user talk pages and on the MfDs. You can find the time to attack me, on the one hand, because I edited your bosses page in oder to try and retain the important information, as well as Wikipedia overall but still not find time to create main space articles for your bosses companies that you announced were "coming soon" and would have potentially saved your user page form being deleted. As for the user page not being accurate, as you claim to have created that page, any misinformation would fall on you as the source including the statements that your boss formed Landmine Entertainment, dvxuser, reduser, and scarletuser.

You do not have to participate here, no one said you had to but, for the record, I disagree with the way both your pages were presented because this is not a place for posting resumes or having MySpace type pages. However, despite your bosses MfD and your MfD closures of "delete", the What may I not have on my user page? guidelines do clearly state that a user page may not contain Excessive personal information (more than a couple of pages) unrelated to Wikipedia. As had to be pointed out to me, the statement defines "excessive" as "more than a couple of pages", and neither your page, nor your bosses, was in violation of this. Despite that guideline there is an unwritten set of policies and guidelines that exist and that only more experienced editors know about. In order to understand the one that relates to your userpage, because it is unwritten, one has to read the relevant MfD's to find the common thread: If an editor creates an SPA account and spends one year or so working on articles about their personal beliefs, companies, or people who are a part of those companies, than creates a userpage, the editor will be allowed to post a resumes or create a myspace type of user page.
