Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles, as you did to SubtitlesBox. Advertising, and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox", is strongly discouraged. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Subtitle (captioning). Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policy for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Douglasmtaylor ^T/C 12:20, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Deletion

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tags from articles when contesting the deletion proposition. You may add the contest notice underneath the deletion template, and not replace the template with it. Thanks, Mickthefish 12:25, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Shrek. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Douglasmtaylor ^T/C 12:36, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's not advertising, it's information, same as on cinema schedules. Can you tell me the proper way to add information?

Gwpro 12:38, 4 August 2007 (UTC) Michael[reply]

I do not think that there is a proper way for your website to be included in Wikipedia article space, hence the reason I continue to revert it. I went so far as to create an account on your website to look at it, actually, and I still think it's spam-linking. If you want to include a link, create it on your user page and put it there, but keep it out of the article space, please. Douglasmtaylor ^T/C 12:40, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Douglas, We have a network of websites - you have beside subtitlesbox.com sites like www.rollywood.net, www.get-weather.com, www.cinematex.ro, www.fetelamoda.com and other 20 sites, which are using the same crosspass network, you can login and review the other ones and tell me if i can include them in the wiki pages - for ex, on the shrek page can we include this page - http://www.rollywood.net/en_articles_search.php?keyword1=shrek ?

PS: SubtitlesBox.com includes original content and information, so it's complying to your site's rules. It's not bulk, spammy and other included in these categories.

Gwpro 13:00, 4 August 2007 (UTC) Michael[reply]

Hm. I am not particularly sure. Let me see if I can find an admin to take a look at this discussion and we'll let them make decisions on it. Douglasmtaylor ^T/C 13:02, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Douglas, Do you have any news for me ?

Subtitlesbox

The bigger problem is that you haven't asserted that your website is notable, see WP:WEB, and supported that with citations to reliable independent sources. NawlinWiki 13:15, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This cannot be established by our traffic and partners - we deliver content to over 100 other websites from our domain (subtitlesbox.com only). the sites can be seen by searching online after terms like "subtitlesbox.com" and "subtitles.ro" - which is the old site, now redirected to subtitlesbox.com.

PS: I don't understand how can I introduce one site into wikipedia? we have traffic, we're respected and we have almost 300.000 subscribed members worldwide. This ain't enough to consider our site (or sites) as a reliable source. Also, we're online since 2003 with some of our sites.

Speedy deletion nomination of Orasul timisoara

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Orasul timisoara requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (April 20)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Theroadislong was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:Gwpro/sandbox and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to User:Gwpro/sandbox, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, Gwpro! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Theroadislong (talk) 16:12, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Orasul-timisoara.ro

Hello, Gwpro

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Orasul-timisoara.ro for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons. For more details please see the notice on the article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

Hello, Gwpro,

Main space articles have to be reliably sourced to demonstrate notability otherwise a page just looks like promotion. Please create and develop articles in Draft space or User space like your Sandbox. Articles put directly into the main space of the project are subject to review and will be deleted if they don't meet Wikipedia's standards for completeness and adequate sourcing.

If you have questions, please bring them to the Teahouse. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:01, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
