Contact me first
Please don't remove my content without consulting me first. No, information about my volunteer group is not advertising. The SGMTBs account will be updating the Wikiedia pages relevant to the Angeles National Forest, tools and materials used in forestry et al and your opinions about what constitutes advertising are not acceptable Wikipedia behavior. Thanks. Sgmtbs (talk) 01:54, 7 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Pardon me for butting in here, but what content are we talking about? I don't see any of your edits that were reverted; you've only got the three of them so far. Is there another account? Dawnseeker2000   02:07, 7 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Greetings, Dawnnseeker, and please do "butt in" as you please! since I'm always happy to talk things out and answer questions. It's just that Peridon thought that my User entry http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Sgmtbs describing who I was some how constituted advertising or promotion and perhaps the fault was mine since I did not update my User page with enough information for Peridon to make an informed opinion. I have rectified that.


 * I'm Fredric L. Rice and have been making Wikipedia edits for several years and while I don't know all the ins and outs of Wiki, I'm not entirely a noob. I provided some of the background documentary materials which went in to the so-called "Wikiwars" that revolved around the notorious Scientology edits which attempted to remove such materials, so I also have some experience in people with differing opinions deleting other people's contents. (You can Google my name, I'm splattered all over the Intertubes.)


 * I just hope that I asked Peridon politely enough for him to understand that inappropriate deletions aren't very welcome and they actively turn people off from contributing to the effort. There are a lot of brilliant people out there who got stung by over-anxious deleters who refrain from participating because of it. I would hope that Peridon exercises more caution from now on.

OK. I see what's happened here. You had previously created your userpage and it was deleted. Got it. Well I can understand why that my have been. It's just that your username does seem to not comply with our oranization username policy, and the userpage as it now stands once again, is flirting with being promotional material. We don't want to discourage you from editing but this does appear to be something that will need to be addressed. I would recommend changing your username to something that is independent of the San Gabriel Mountains Trailbuilders. Good luck. Dawnseeker2000  04:38, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Just pointing out that I deleted nothing - I put a CSD tag on a userpage for promotional material and a spam warning on the talk page. An admin actually deleted the page. I don't care how far anyone's name is spread - if I see promotional material I will tag it. I do know the difference between voluntary and commercial and that both can be promotional.

WP:UAA
Hiya, I saw you replied to User:GNègre in an AfD, could you help us out and give an opinion at WP:UAA on your take on the offensiveness of the name? (Watching) - Dank (push to talk) 12:08, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Cask'n Flagon
Hi. Just to let you know that I have removed the db-spam template from Cask'n Flagon, and have reverted to the last good version before it was filled with promotional talk. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 17:23, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: John patrick acquaviva
Hello Peridon. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of John patrick acquaviva, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: He may or may not meet notability criteria, but this is not unambiguous promotion or advertising. Thank you. --  Phantom Steve / talk &#124; contribs \ 18:57, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

Regarding deletion of Avia Solutions Group
Hi Peridon. I was about to use the hangon tag you suggested, unfortunately, my article was already deleted... I want to argue that this is not an advertising article based on the following reasons: I hope I proved my point that this article is not from thin air but rather helps covering a few holes currently in Wikipedia content. If you still don't appreciate certain parts of the article, please indicate them. But can you please undelete it for now? --MilesToCover (talk) 08:35, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Avia Solutions Group was mentioned in other articles (as Avia Solutions Group or as its previous names flyLAL Group or flyLAL Group Services).
 * It is mentioned also in the pages of Lithuanian Wikipedia as it's a Lithuanian compnay (hopefully, soon a page for Lithuanian portal is made as well).
 * Avia Solutions Group is the continuation of development of Lithuanian aviation sector: Lithuanian Aviation --> Lithuanian Airlines (the only state-owned airline in Lithuania) --> flyLAL - Lithuanian Airlines (privatized; bancrupt) --> Avia Solutions Group (uniting all other companies that were created reorganizing Lithuanian Airlines).
 * Introduction of Avia Solutions Group brings structure to currently scattered and stand-alone articles (although long-timers on Wikipedia) of such companies as Avia Asset Management, Small Planet Airlines (even more in Lithuanian portal).

Speedy deletion of Lane Janger
Hello Peridon,

I´ve added some references, so I think it has to be ok now.

Hello
Szia! Dunno why, but I suddenly felt the urge to look at your user page. What's Euskara? --  role player 22:50, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
