User talk:Mkintner

May 2012
Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to User:Mkintner. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Alexf(talk) 12:50, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Olean, New York. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. Alexf(talk) 12:52, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

Welcome
Hello, Mkintner, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you created was Michael Kintner, which appears to be an article about yourself. This is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

The page you created about yourself has been or will shortly be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, but if you want to use the content from it, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Scopecreep (talk) 12:59, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Mkintner


A tag has been placed on User:Mkintner, 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 and FAQ/Business for more information.

Please do not write an article about yourself, as you apparently did at Michael Kintner. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

Contested deletion
This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (your reason here) --Michael Kintner (talk) 13:15, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

I don't understand I am discussing my auto and the interactive aerial virutal tours of the North Eastern United States.
 * You would be best advised to read about notability issues, advertising and conflicts of interest. Maybe your business is notable, but you should not be the one to say it. It it is indeed notable, and there are sufficient independent reliable sources to prove it, somewhere will come along and write about you or your business. -- Alexf(talk) 14:52, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
