Gregg, this article was approved by Admin Nawlin. (http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/User:NawlinWiki) I worked on it for a week with him. According to him everything is fine now. --Q-cue (talk) 02:01, 30 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Ok, just so I understand, you have a higher authority than Nawlin, yes? I'm new to Wikipedia, but the whole point of working with him was to weed out all the biased/promotional content since I wanted to follow Wikipedia's policy. According to him, that has already been done as you can see in his notes on my Talk page. I also had several people who have nothing to do with Foursquare Day read the article as well so they could tell me whether or not it sounded like an advertisement or written from a neutral point of view. Not one person said "advertisement." Therefore, perhaps you would like to explain what part reads this way so we can get it taken care asap. Thanks in advance. --Q-cue (talk) 02:19, 30 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • I appreciate the info. I guess my initial concern is that Nawlin said the article no longer had a promotional/advertising tone, yet you are saying otherwise. In my opinion, you both have different opinions which is why I am asking who has authority. You're telling me one thing and he's saying everything is fine. DO you see where I am coming from? See me problem?
      He didn't just help bring it to a level to avoid speedy deletion, he had me edit all the content that was promotional. Furthermore, he stepped in and edited some himself so I could move it to the article space. Now, if he felt there was any advertising/promotional tone he would have added the "advert"tag himself like you did, no?
      Yes, I agree, we should discuss this on the article's talk page, but if we do, you will not receive a message. Instead, you will only see this message if you visit the page yourself.
      Anyway, please advise. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Q-cue (talkcontribs) 02:35, 30 April 2010
      • Ok, that sounds good to me. I'll keep further discussion on the talk page. Btw, I'm not sure if you can or not, but since we already brought it to a level to avoid speedy deletion, perhaps you could remove this line "For blatant advertising that would require a fundamental rewrite to become encyclopedic, use to mark for speedy deletion." Have a good night and thanks again, Gregg! --Q-cue (talk) 02:58, 30 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
