User talk:Scheelsmkt

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

I notice that one of the first articles you created appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been reverted for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of deletion, you might like to draft your article before submission, then get me or any other editor to proofread it. To start creating a draft article, just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit that page as you would any other. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

The one firm rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that if more than one person is using this account to edit, then unfortunately it will be blocked from editing.

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.

As an alternative, you may file for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account and use that for editing.

Please also follow Wikipedia's policy of keeping a neutral point of view in your edits. Among other things, this means that edits to articles shouldn't promote a business or encourage people to shop there. Thank you. Loves Macs  (talk) 18:25, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

I observe that you have continued to add material to Scheels All Sports, much of which is promotional in nature. If you continue to do this you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Your username alone is grounds for blocking. DJ Clayworth (talk) 16:01, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
