User talk:Kate Johnes

Welcome!

Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted (if it hasn't already).

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Speedy deletion of Askedweb
A tag has been placed on Askedweb, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the article or have a copy emailed to you.

Askweb
Hi, Kate, I think you have two problems The links to the website are OK, but you need other links to show notability, and any claims you make about the site's virtues need referencing to reliable independent sources. The deleted version read as if it was taken from the company website, it was so uncritical and promotional. I hope this helps jimfbleak (talk) 06:32, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Your article did not provide independent verifiable sources that it meets the notability guidelines.
 * It was not written as a neutral encyclopaedia article, but was full of unsourced spammy promotional claims, eg
 * community web site dedicated to
 * This is place to get inspired
 * Anyone can join (bolded)
 * it is all too easy and free

 * I've cleaned the article up and remove unsourced like popular please see these changes. I still think it will struggle with notability, since it has no independent verifiable sources to show that it meets the guidelines. jimfbleak (talk) 06:56, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, it's less spammy, but still not clear why it's notable jimfbleak (talk) 06:33, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

Template:Info Dog Working Group
I've deleted "Template:Info Dog Working Group", which I think you created by mistake. If you say you want it, I can put it in your sandbox. -- Hoary (talk) 08:49, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" is strongly discouraged. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Askedweb does not seem to meet the criteria for a reliable source. SchmuckyTheCat (talk) 18:21, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
