User talk:Just The Tonic

June 2013
Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Nottingham. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. TwoTwoHello (talk) 15:03, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

What are you talking about I'm making it clear what kind of amenities are available to the people of Nottingham. If you are going to get rid of what I wrote, get rid of every mention of any brand such as Rock City, Bodega etc.

Because I happen to like a comedy club that isn't accurately represented on Wikipedia... Do you work for Wikipedia?
 * Because every edit I reverted was promoting Just The Tonic. Like the vast majority of editors, I am a volunteer. Some more reading you might consider: Core content policies TwoTwoHello (talk) 15:40, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Everything that I had written was factual and backed up by relevant referencing. I decided that I wanted to write an article about a comedy club that I feel should be represented, and called my user Just The Tonic as I couldn't think of anything better to call it. When setting up the page, I read that it was important to link your page in with others, so as to prevent it from becoming 'orphaned'. All I was doing was including factual points in relevant pages in order to prevent my page from becoming 'orphaned' as the company you volunteer for suggested. You have now made sure that my afternoon was a complete waste of time. Have you got any tips for how I can proceed without my time being wasted further?
 * Let me start by welcoming you to wikipedia. Writing new articles is surprisingly hard and establishing the notability of pet subjects is often difficult. I looked at the references you gave and they did not strike me as reliable sources. Non-tabloid British media would have been much better (e.g. The Guardian, Telegraph or BBC), particularly when discussing living people. I would suggest you start by editing existing articles on subjects that interest you but do not feel so strongly about that you lose perspective. I am not a volunteer to help a company make money, but to try to help build an encyclopaedia. Good luck! TwoTwoHello (talk) 17:33, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Just The Tonic, you are invited to the Teahouse
Welcome!

Hello, Just The Tonic, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you edited was Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Just_The_Tonic, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or any other editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One firm rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! LukeSurlt c 17:54, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
