Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * Welcome!
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial

 * Manual of Style


 * Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or sock puppetry.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

App Quality Alliance (AQuA)
Hello ,

It seems to me that an article you worked on, App Quality Alliance (AQuA), may be copied from http://www.appqualityalliance.org/what-is-aqua. It's entirely possible that I made a mistake, but I wanted to let you know because Wikipedia is strict about copying from other sites.

It's important that you edit the article and rewrite it in your own words, unless you're absolutely certain nothing in it is copied. If you're not sure how to fix the problem or have any questions, there are people at the help desk who are happy to assist you.

Thank you for helping build a free encyclopedia! MadmanBot (talk) 10:02, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of App Quality Alliance (AQuA)


A tag has been placed on App Quality Alliance (AQuA), 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 unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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. Tyros1972 Talk 09:17, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

About "App Quality Alliance"
Hello Martin, and again welcome to Wikipedia!

I'm Peter, a Wikipedia editor and administrator from Melbourne, Australia who goes by the "username" Shirt58. I am the person who "speedily deleted" the Wikipedia web page (called an "article" in Wikipedia jargon) App Quality Alliance (AQuA). I deleted it for two reasons (click on the links for full explanations): Pete aka --Shirt58 (talk) 10:21, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
 * The article appeared to be an unambiguous promotion for the AQuA website
 * The article was an unambiguous copyright violation of this web-page
 * Update! Martin, please see User:Shirt58/AQuA for a suggestion of how an article for this very notable organization may begin to take shape. Pete aka  --Shirt58 (talk) 11:38, 14 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks. Clearly I have a lot to learn about writing for Wikipedia! MartinWrigley (talk) 11:58, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
 * "No wucking forries", as we say in upside-down land. Article is now up and running as App Quality Alliance. Please feel free to ask me any Wikipedia related questions you might have. Pete aka --Shirt58 (talk) 12:32, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of App Quality Alliance


The article App Quality Alliance has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "No indication of notability. Orphaned for a decade."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
