Wine & Design
Hi!

My apologies-- I am new to Wikipedia and not too sure how to respond to the message you left on my page. I saw where you have reported my page for violations of rules for Wikipedia and I am happy to change so the page does not get deleted. Please let me know what needs to be changed/updated. Thank you!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wineanddesign (talk • contribs) 15:38, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi there! You need to change the content on your user page as it is rather promotional. Wikipedia is not for promotional purposes. You would also need to change your username to something not promotional (by promotional I mean you cannot have a company, brand, entity and product as the username). Please reply on WP:CHUS where I have left a reply for you. Jianhui67T ★ C 15:42, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
