User talk:Johnny Base

July 2015
Welcome to Wikipedia. It appears that you have added a link to an image on an external website to Rick Boston, likely in an attempt to display that image on the page. For technical and policy reasons, it is not possible to use images from external websites on Wikipedia. If the image meets Wikipedia's image use policy, consider uploading it to Wikipedia yourself or request an upload. See the image tutorial to learn about wiki syntax used for images. Thank you.

Userpage
Hey, just a head's up - you may need to somewhat rephrase things on your userpage. The thing about userpages is that you should really only put in information about yourself as it pertains to editing Wikipedia, especially as a lot of people consider linking to company pages a form of self-promotion on Wikipedia, even if this is only on your userpage.

I'd say that a better way to put this would be something like as follows:

"Welcome to my user page on Wikipedia, I'm Johnny Base. I own a digital marketing company in Richmond, Virginia, but I do not plan on editing any pages that would be of any professional interest. I enjoy solving problems, constant learning, and autodidacticism. I also play music, which you can see here (insert link), and I can be contacted off of Wikipedia on Twitter or Google +."

This would at least enable you to link to your music page and your social media sites. Since you're not editing anything relating to digital marketing, there's no reason for you to include the sentence "We help Companies, Corporations with Digital Marketing and, Online presence management." or to include a link to your website. Also, I really want to discourage you from posting your Linkedin profile on Wikipedia as well, since Linkedin is very, very strongly associated with self-promotion on Wikipedia. (Plus there is already a link to your business website in your Twitter account, making it unnecessary to link to it here.)

I would also heavily recommend that you go through one of the training modules on Wikipedia, either at WP:TRAINING or WP:ADVENTURE. This will give you a general overview of editing policies, which would be extremely helpful since you do have a marketing background. Even though you have said that you don't plan on editing any work-related pages, people with marketing backgrounds tend to have an issue with writing in a neutral point of view, as they're so used to writing in a promotional manner that it's easy for them to slip in some marketing buzzwords without even realizing it.
