Introduction to Wikipedia; answers to your inquiry about PAUX
Hello WissenVeredeln. You've been editing on Wikipedia for almost a month, but have not yet received an introduction to Wikipedia. Suggested reading: The five pillars of Wikipedia &mdash; this provides much of what you need in a nutshell to navigate Wikipedia and understand our guidelines and policies.

If you need help, check out Where to ask a question, add a question to the Village pump, or place   on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. (A note on process: Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~&#126;); this will automatically produce your name and the date.)

With respect to your specific areas of contribution &mdash; it would seem that you have a single purpose account, with the goal of including information about PAUX in Wikipedia. It is important that you are aware of Wikipedia's guidelines on spam and inclusion of articles on companies and software. Also, it is best to avoid conflict of interest &mdash; writing articles on products that you are involved with. Please be aware that using Wikipedia as a means of promotion/advertising NOT acceptable on Wikipedia.

For inclusion of an article on PAUX, you will need to be sure that:
 * 1) The company/software is notable.  (See A7 speedy deletion criteria).
 * 2) The article is not being added only to promote a company or product. (See G11 speedy deletion criteria). As a result of a proliferation of spam/companies using Wikipedia as a vehicle for self-promotion/advertising, pages that are blatantly promotion of commercial are now speedy deleted.

Per your e-mail query about the deletion of PAUX: In reviewing the PAUX article again, as written, it does not meet notability guidelines, it is promotional, AND (regardless of where the content came from) the website has a copyright notice (see bottom of webpages &mdash; © 2006 PAUX) &mdash; which qualifies it for speedy deletion under A7 and G11, and for deletion as a copyright violation.

If you consider rewriting the article, please be sure that it meets criteria for inclusion (companies and software).

 * BTW, if PAUX used the Wikipedia article, please review Copyrights for requirements for copying that material. &mdash; ERcheck (talk) 19:13, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Re-writing PAUX article
Thank you for your note. Per your request, I've restored the PAUX article to your own Sandbox here &mdash; User:WissenVeredeln/Sandbox &mdash; minus the material that is copied on the Paux website. I have provided that link.

I again direct your attention to Conflict of interest.

As you create articles, you will probably find the Manual of Style helpful.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called WissenVeredeln. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name WissenVeredeln~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 03:48, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
