Hello, I'm John from Idegon. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Arnold, California because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Arnold, California. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Mean as custard (talk) 11:22, 4 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising, as you did at Arnold, California. John from Idegon (talk) 11:30, 4 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi John John from Idegon - thank you for your comments. I am anew user and trying to add objective, useful information about Arnold to the page. I am following the style and format of other pages for California recreation areas such as Lake Tahoe. Please provide more specific feedback so I can update this area with useful information for the readers and community. Thanks.Falsetti1

NO, I am sorry but you are not. You are apparently writing a tourist brochure. A very good suggestion would be to lose all the pretty adjectives and adverbs, and quit writing like you are trying to sell the place. Just the facts, and those need references, please. Use the link above and go ask for some help at the teahouse. You are 1 bad edit away from getting blocked I am afraid. John from Idegon (talk) 11:47, 4 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the tips and the pointer to the teahouse. I will review the information I submitted and update. Sorry about the multiple messages as well. I just kept getting error messages saying someone else was updating the record and my changes were not being saved. So, I keep resubmitting. Now, I understand that the content was not appropriate and I need to change it. Thanks again for help.Falsetti1 12:19, 4 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
