Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Mt. Verd, Tennessee has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): rule: '\bmyspace\.com' (link(s): http://www.myspace.com/thetrumpetofthelord). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, or similar site, then please check the information on the external site thorougly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creators copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).

If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks!

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about re Michael E. Schmidt, 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 from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, 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;
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam); and,
 * 4) avoid breaching 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 conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for businesses. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Andy Dingley (talk) 16:25, 21 August 2008 (UTC)


 * USA Trumpet is Michael Schmidt so I guess that constitutes a close connection.TheDarkOneLives (talk) 22:44, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Be sure to read WP:3RR also. You are about to be blocked just for that, regardless of content. Though given the content you keep adding, you could also be blocked for inappropriate edits. DMacks (talk) 22:41, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for violating the three-revert rule. Please be more careful to discuss controversial changes or seek dispute resolution rather than engaging in an edit war. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text below.

Revert wars and talk: pages
You might find it useful to read Edit war

From your comments above, I can understand why you might feel aggrieved. However repeated reverts and edit warring are not the way to fix this. In particular, as you've just noticed, repeated reversions will merely get you blocked. I note that you didn't use unblock to request unblocking for your comment above, but even if you had done so, complaining about the content is unlikely to have reversed what's a legit block. You were blocked for breaking the WP:3RR policy, not for your views about the content! It's about behaviour, not censorship. I suggest you read the link I suggested and follow its advice as to alternative ways to proceed. Andy Dingley (talk) 09:47, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

You're headed for another block if you keep breaking formatting (inserting curly-braces) and removing material that appears to be rationally supported on the talk page. DMacks (talk) 21:48, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Trumpet of the Lord Ministries.
A tag has been placed on Trumpet of the Lord Ministries. requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a club, but it 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guidelines for people and for organizations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you.  Wisdom89  ( T |undefined /  C ) 02:28, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
