Speedy deletion nomination of User:Theoldenarb


A tag has been placed on User:Theoldenarb, 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.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. 1966batfan (talk) 23:31, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

Purpose of Wikipedia
Hi, Theoldenarb; you may have noticed that another admin has deleted the userpage you made. Perhaps you were unaware, but you cannot use Wikipedia like a social media site (like Facebook, Twitter, a blog, etc.). Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia, and our sole purpose is to collect information in articles based on reliable sources. While we do provide users with userpages, we do so only so that they can help build the encyclopedia. If you are interested in helping with that task, there's some links in the first message above that will help you get started. However, if you only want to use this site for social purposes, then your contributions will continue to be deleted, and eventually you'll be blocked. If you have any questions, please come to my talk page and ask at any time. Qwyrxian (talk) 00:11, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
