If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Smartse (talk) 14:33, 3 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Please note that you may not be notable enough for a wikipedia article. Generally references to published news sources need to be provided. If these are not provided your (auto)biography will probably be deleted. Please message me on my talk page if you have any questions. Smartse (talk) 14:33, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Notability of Ty Ford
A tag has been placed on Ty Ford requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. eaolson (talk) 14:38, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Blumlein Pair. 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 websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website 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 page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Melcous (talk) 04:12, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

Got to say I disagree with you, Mel. There is no profit in my link. It's there to demonstrate the specific nature of the sound. Wikipedia should not be a dead medium. In order to survive and grow, it needs to be relevant. Writing about sound is a like skating about architecture. It simply doesn't work. In order to convey the material properly, one has to hear what is being referred to. Text, no matter how erudite, fails to do this. The only way to achieve it properly is by using audio to demonstrate the specifics of a particular microphone array. I'm terribly sorry you presently don't comprehend this. Why do I not see any tildes in your signature?
