Your link additions to Deadliest Catch
I have removed your link additions to Deadliest Catch again per the guidelines at External links and Conflict of interest. Blogs links are generally not added to Wikipedia unless the blog is run by a recognized authority on the topic. For example, if Thom Beers were to have a blog about Deadliest Catch, then the blog link would be relevant. As for your edit summary comment that Star Trek and American Idol have fansite links, you will see that they do not. All of the American Idol links are from official sources or third parties that are not blogs.

Your editing history of creating an account and 4 minutes later adding back in links that were adding by another user who entire editing history is related to the same set of links and has a fairly obvious conflict of interest, makes me believe that you are somehow related. Even if you are not related, the reasons I have stated above preclude the inclusion of the blog into the article. I would happy to discuss this with you, but please do not re-add the link. Thank you. -- Gogo Dodo 06:45, 19 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Re your message: While your site is quite extensive, the overriding problem with you adding the link is that you have conflict of interest as the owner of the site. You should not add the link yourself.  You're welcome to open a discussion on Talk:Deadliest Catch about linking your site.  If there is a consensus of neutral and independent editors that your blog is worth including it could be linked.


 * The issue is not you are or are not selling anything. Merely being a commercial site does not preclude linking on Wikipedia (unless it violates the spamming guideline, of course).  As for listing your blog because there is no official blog, the lack of an official blog does not mean that your blog can "take its place" so to speak as there is no "reserved" (for lack of a better word) spot for blogs.  Listing your blog under "See Also" would not be appropriate as that section is usually for inter-wiki links, not external links.


 * On a side note, the Votefortheworst.com site on American Idol is apparently a well-known and media-cited website. It actually has it's own article Votefortheworst.com.  -- Gogo Dodo 23:31, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Maxwell123. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Maxwell123~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 01:42, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
