User talk:Laurence Dunn

June 2011
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Norwich do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Charles (talk) 07:35, 13 June 2011 (UTC) Laurence Dunn's response. The list on the Norwich page that I added my link to was actually called "Links" - This was solely for the benefit of local businesses who are researching information about Norwich on Wikipedia to decide whether they will invest in the area. It is news of a new scheme where local businesses can secure funding. This is in the interests of the local community. The £25,000 that I have to give away is for them. Previously Business Link UK Gov provided this funding but central government withdrew their funding of this in 2010. The removal of information like this from Wikipedia this shows us more of the "Googleisation" of the internet where information that people actually want is surpressed by the powers that administer certain websites.

Speedy deletion nomination of Journey sleigh


A tag has been placed on Journey sleigh 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 web content, 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.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. ZZArch talk to me 09:14, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
