User:Mimifashion


A tag has been placed on User:Mimifashion, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of User:Mimifashion and leave a note on |the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Mean as custard (talk) 12:03, 17 August 2010 (UTC) Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from User:Mimifashion, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you.  Giftiger Wunsch   [TALK]  13:43, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Mimifashion
A tag has been placed on User:Mimifashion, 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 an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), 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.

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with User:Mimifashion. Please use the template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion, and make your case on the page's talk page. Thank you.  Giftiger Wunsch   [TALK]  13:47, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

This is the final warning you will receive regarding your disruptive edits. The next time you remove a speedy deletion notice from a page you have created yourself, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Salvio Let's talk 'bout it! 13:54, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Your userpage
Please take notice of the warnings which have been left regarding deletion of speedy-delete templates. The template was placed on your userpage as it appears to be doing nothing more than advertising your company, as the page should therefore be deleted according to wikipedia policy. If you remove the speedy deletion template again, you are likely to be blocked from editing without further warning. If you can justify keeping the page, you should place a template on the page as you did previously, and explain here why you believe the page should remain.

Please also be aware that you appear to have a conflict of interest since your username matches the name of the company you are attempting to promote; advertising is strictly against wikipedia policy, and although not forbidden, writing about a subject with which you have a conflict of interest is itself strongly discouraged, as it is difficult to remain neutral, which is a requirement for all articles. Your username also represents a company rather than an individual, so you should consider making an account which represents only you, and discontinuing use of this account.  Giftiger Wunsch   [TALK]  14:05, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

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, 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. JohnCD (talk) 14:10, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi Giftiger and JohnCD...Before I was able to say anything about my page in response to your notifications my page has been blocked which I think is just out of proportion...I have received a warning from you that my page is going to be deleted unless the content is rewritten. I need further information from you on the alowed content as in my article I have been using the same layout and context as the Net-A-Porter site does therefore I do not understand your actions...you have blocked my account indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended or used for publicity and/or promotional purposes but if you have a look on Net-A-Porter that is what they have done than. Second of all you were complaining about my username. the truth is that it is my name and the place where I am based so I need you to look into the above and let me know. I just think the above actions are without ground. If my article about this perticular business can not be on Wikipedia than you are going to have to delete Net-A-Porter as well. I await your soonest response.
 * You were indefinitely blocked since your username suggests that it represents a company rather than an individual, supported by the fact that all you have done so far is create an advertisement for your company on your userpage. Since your username is the issue, there should be no problem with you creating a new username which represents only you, providing you do not use it for advertising purposes. Please also be aware that "other stuff exists" is not a valid reason to allow actions against policy. If you feel that another user has violated policy in a similar way I will take a look, however.

 * If you want to be unblocked, first read:
 * Conflict of interest
 * Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest
 * The FAQ/Organizations, especially the sections:
 * Why doesn't Wikipedia have an article on my organization?
 * I think my organization deserves an article on Wikipedia but none exists. What can I do?
 * Then follow the instructions under "What can I do now?" in the block notice above. JohnCD (talk) 16:26, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
