Speedy deletion nomination of Mystampworld


A tag has been placed on Mystampworld 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 an organization or company, 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. red dog six (talk) 03:44, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

Blocked
Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. Thank you. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   04:07, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

Can someone unblock my username please, thanks.

Can someone help me please, thanks.

Koalastamps: You say it is your usual internet username, but we need to be sure you understand the Conflict of Interest policy. Please answer the three questions below:

Here are a few key questions:
 * Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
 * Do you understand conflict of interest?
 * Do you understand that to be considered for an encyclopedia article, the subject must be notable?

You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product that you have been promoting, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to violate the 3 important principles above. Yngvadottir (talk) 06:02, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

yes, yes and yes. It's my personal pseudonym which I've used for years on philatelic web sites. As I've stated I would like to keep it please.

You also said "You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product...". Can you give me an example? I sincerely doubt this is the case.


 * An example would be that on your Facebook page, you link to the site on which you wrote the article, as your website; and on that site, you offer items for sale under the koalastamps name. So you would have to either use another name here, or modify that one to make clear that you are not editing as your business. Please fully answer the three questions (and then sign your name by copying this: ~ or by clicking on the signature or pen symbol that you should see in the bar above the edit window; that will make it clear who said what). I have watchlisted this page, and I'm leaving the first two help request templates in place, so other admins will check here even if I am offline, but I've removed the latest two for clarity.

i would like to set up a new username of january13   ...please remove the ip block, thanks.

Username change
You can request the new username at Changing username/Simple. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   08:18, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

Use of help me tags

 * 1) It is not necessary to use a help me tag to ask for an unblock, as the unblock request alerts administrators to the existence of a request on the page, while no editors other than administrators can deal with unblock requests anyway.
 * 2) Please don't post several help me tags at the same time for the same issue. It doesn't cause the page to become any more prominent in the list of pending request for help than it would be with only one of the tags, so your request won't be dealt with any quicker. In fact, it does only two things: it gives the impression that you are impatiently trying to badger someone into responding, and it gives the person who responds a little more work to do, as he or she has to search through the source of the page finding all the tags and disabling them.
