 * Sorry, but the article you created really doesn't meet our inclusion criteria -- if we let everyone post a page about their friend, the project would quickly become overrun with pages the vast majority of people would have no interest in reading; in order to keep Wikipedia useful, we need to delete pages which won't interest our readers, or which fall outside the scope of our project. If you take a look at our community portal, is there some other topic where you might be interested in contributing? – Luna Santin  (talk) 23:05, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

Ok, thank you Luna. Is there some way I can get this block removed? I don't understand why I was blocked...Seems a little harsh to be blocked for writing your first article on your friend and not knowing that it was a violation, don't you agree?
 * I imagine the quick block was at least partly because someone had very recently posted an article by the same name, from another account, but it's hard to know for sure without asking the blocking admin. I usually prefer to assume good faith when I can, so let's see where this goes. For now, I'll be leaving a note with the blocking admin notifying them of your request, and in the meantime other admins may arrive to comment on this situation. – Luna Santin  (talk) 23:26, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

OK, I've gone ahead and unblocked the account. You're free to edit. :) --PMDrive1061 (talk) 23:42, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
