User:Pastryhistorian/The Mount Bakery


Seems like the user only registered to promote this bakery as the account hasn't done anything other than edit their own user page with this type of promotion Gorlack36 (talk) 19:35, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi - I'm pastryhistorian and I signed up to do hoping to do local Bellingham entries and started with this because I'm excited about it. I think this page should be there, because the place is an important local landmark, as I've tried to show via the use of references. I haven't done anything else on Wikipedia yet because I've barely finished this page. It's taken me a while to figure out how to write and edit here. I believe I've followed the objective, journalist style in writing the entry and have provided plenty of legitimate sources as reference. The page should be judged based on its merits rather than on the fact that it's the first thing I've done so far. Will the page be deleted simply because it's about a commercial place and I haven't done other entries yet?Pastryhistorian (talk) 21:31, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

Also re: the note that I created "a duplicate of Nayantara article inside an User page and also added all categories and other Wiki links here." I'm afraid I have no idea if I did that or what this means. I did spend quite a bit of time fooling around trying to figure out how to work with the article creation template and did look at other pages to do so and may have done something odd as above.

I've now also edited the Bellingham, Wa page to add information about the literary "scene." I plan to do more, but I have been taking my time with it to try to produce a page properly, so I plan to edit more as well, and to make new pages - but I will go slowly. It's a little frustrating to put the time in to learn how to do this and to try to do it properly, when pages are immediately threatened with deletion for simply being the one page done so far by a user.
 * It does read a little like promotion, and I doubt it would fare well against Notability (organizations and companies). As the article is now in mainspace, this should be closed or moved to AfD.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 10:44, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
