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.

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 this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question or ask me on. Again, welcome!  7   talk   02:34, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Kenneth G Baker, (missionary)
A tag has been placed on Kenneth G Baker, (missionary) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.  7   talk   02:34, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Blocked
Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended or used for publicity and/or promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.

Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, celebrity or other well-known individual, or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but it is considered inappropriate for such groups to use Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.

Probably not. See WP:FAQ/Organization for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, or organization. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?

You are still welcome to write about something other than your company or organization. If you do intend to make useful contributions on some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
 * What can I do now?


 * Add the text on your user talk page.
 * Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
 * Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, please see how to appeal a block. - Vianello (Talk) 02:40, 15 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Sorry, but it doesn't work like that. If you just have one of your friends do it, it will still be deleted, as you are not notable, not to mention the policy violation of meat puppetting.  You see, it works like this: wikipedia is not myspace, or facebook, or any other social networking site, we are an encyclopedia, and only content which meets our notability standards is allowed.  You need to have significant coverage in reliable sources to establish notability.  Meatpuppeting as said is a policy violation, and it will significantly destroy any chance you would have had at ever coming back.  For transparency reasons, I shall state it again: We are not a social network site.—  Dæ dαlus Contribs  07:45, 15 May 2009 (UTC)


 * A few things to mention. For one, COI is a strong guideline, not a hard and fast, make-or-break rule. Some genuinely notable people HAVE made articles about themselves, and even had them kept. These did often need massive overhauls to remove vanity content, non-neutral POV, etc., but the fact that their subject is proven to be notable in the article itself is ultimately the most important part. As for the username, there's still a hangup on the wording here. "Group", "work", "business", "efforts", whatever one calls it, it plainly exists to promote them. Kind of like the difference between "Vianello" versus "Vianello's Awesome Website Thing", if I were a website operator. It's not a group, or a business, and it may not even make money, but it'd be a username for what I do, rather than for me. And lastly, the education you request for prior to a block is imposed is what you are receiving now. You're not permanently blocked. You can still create another neutrally named account and edit merrily on your way. However, if your involvement with Wikipedia revolves entirely around a solitary all-or-nothing issue like making an article about yourself, you're probably going to find things here more frustrating than anything. (And as a side-note, if you think administrators have "absolute power", you should probably read WP:ADMIN.) - Vianello (Talk) 04:28, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

FYI conflict of interest guideline
If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines.
