Spam in Ask A Chola

[edit]

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Ask A Chola, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Ask A Chola is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Ask A Chola, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. To see the user who deleted the page, click here CSDWarnBot (talk) 06:00, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Ask A Chola do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.  

Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that 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: 'youtube\.com' (link(s): http://www.youtube.com/askacholatv) . If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. an image or a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file. 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).
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! XLinkBot (talk) 07:10, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I've fixed the code on the Chola page for you. If you need any further help, just let me know.--Torchwood Who? (talk) 07:38, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Torchwood, what happened? I woke up this morning and the whole page is gone? What do I do? Where can I find the last version that you corrected, to use for the next attempt? This is so frustrating. CholaLife (talk) 19:48, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Chola, send a message to User talk:Athaenara and ask the administrator to allow you to have the code to work on privately. Tell the administrator that you want to recreate the page in your userspace at User:CholaLife/cholatest If the admin agrees I'll help to coach you into making a better article. I can't guarantee that it will ultimately lead to a page that won't be deleted, but I'll help you give it a shot.--Torchwood Who? (talk) 22:06, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Torchwood, I got the code from RHaworth by email and I just left a message for Athaenara asking if it would be okay if I recreate the page on /cholatest. Thank you so much for coaching me to make this better. Even if they don't allow it, I will at least learn something, I guess. CholaLife (talk) 06:54, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I received the message, forwarded here:

Hello, Athaenara, I was wondering if it would be okay if I recreate the Ask A Chola article in my userspace at User:CholaLife/cholatest while I am figuring out how to meet the Wikipedia guidelines. I am new on here and I thank you in advance for your patience while I figure out how things work. CholaLife (talk) 06:50, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

I restored the content to the specified page as requested. I added {{refimprove}}, {{primarysources}}, and {{uncategorized}} templates. Good luck! — Athaenara 07:11, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Chola, that's great. I'm a little busy today but when you make some changes just message me on my page and I'll try to get involved as best I can.--Torchwood Who? (talk) 18:40, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
