Unblocked
[edit]Hi Fanatical Submarine, I have unblocked your account. Please understand that this doesn't mean you can continue to edit in the way you did. If others are warning you you are doing things wrong, take it to heart, and stop doing what you are warned for. If you don't quite understand what they mean, ask them instead of ignoring it. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 14:21, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
My Big Blocking Question
[edit]I just saw an account blocked for being associated with a business. I don't know why that doesn't work on Wikipedia!? Oh well, it would be nice if you could answer my question. Fanatical Submarine (talk) 17:15, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
- See WP:Conflict of interest and WP:Neutral point of view. Basically, it's difficult to write neutrally about a subject to which one is closely related. Tiderolls 18:41, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
Starting to Review..
[edit]Hey. I'm eager to start reviewing AFC submissions, and I want to start here. Could you tell me how to safely, and properly review an AFC submission? Fanatical Submarine (talk) 22:05, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
- Have a good read of the reviewing instructions;
- Install the script mentioned therein;
- Add the reviewers talk page and this help desk page to your watchlist;
- You need to make sure you have a good understanding of policies and guidelines. Pol430 talk to me 22:09, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
Does make sense
[edit]Have a look at WP:USERNAME. The block was for two reasons - one was a name that appeared to represent an organisation (Wikipedia accounts are for individuals and not for groups), and the other was advertising. See WP:SPAM. That's what I do when the two things come together. There's a softer block for having the wrong name but editing reasonably well - that just usually requires a change of name (or even just a new account not mentioning the company or underwater knitting circle or whatever it was). If there's spam from a username that passes USERNAME, they get a caution from me if it looks deliberate. There's two more levels, and after Level 4 there's usually a Spam Only block. Most of these are just trying it on, and give up after the first attempt to plug their corner florists and martial arts gym or whatever. The bag sellers and fake Rolex pushers are professional spammers and get no mercy. OK? Any more questions, you can ask on my talk page. If I'm not around, there's quite a lot who stalk it and usually sometimes give better answers than I do. Peridon (talk) 18:52, 30 April 2012 (UTC)
- The one you're referring to was a glorious bit of PR talk, and had address and telephone number too... Pure advertising. Peridon (talk) 18:57, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

Reviewing
[edit]Hello again. Unfortunately, I am not able to install the script needed for reviewing AFC submissions. However, I still want to review, as my reckless point of view on the submissions has changed over time. Please, inform if there is anything I can do to pursue my interest in reviewing AFC submissions without installing the script. I heard there was manual mode......

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/A'a Lava, a page you created has not been edited in at least 180 days. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace. If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it. You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

Hello Fanatical Submarine. It has been over six months since you last edited your article submission, entitled A'a Lava.
The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply {{db-afc}}
or {{db-g13}}
code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/A'a Lava}}
, paste it in the edit box at this link, click "Save", and an administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. —Anne Delong (talk) 04:32, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
