[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Mygazines has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://www.youtube.com (matching the regex rule \byoutube\.com). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. 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. Video links are also strongly deprecated by our guidelines for external links, partly because they're useless to people with slow internet connections.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. 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) 18:37, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added such as to the page Mygazines 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 as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because 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.

The X Factor.

[edit]

Twitter and Youtube are NOT WP:Reliable sources. Plus why do we need to mention speculation? It is not notable or verifiable so stop adding it. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 16:19, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest you remove what you've posted because the sources do not even verify what you're claiming. If you do not then inline with Wikipedia policies of verifiability I will have no choice but to involve administrators as you are blatantly ignoring rules and posting unverifiable information which could be harmful to the show as well as others involved.-- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 16:25, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

September 2010

[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article The X Factor (UK series 7), please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Do not use Youtube/twitter as a source -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 16:21, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did to The X Factor (UK series 7). Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Again do not use youtube/twitter as sources for speculation -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 16:21, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did to The X Factor (UK series 7). Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. What can you not understand about not using twitter/youtube as a source? -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 16:22, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've tried to explain to you why it is not correct...

[edit]

Oh ... so i see you've now removed the information? -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 16:48, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
You are aware that the forum thread i've opened, you are allowed to speak at that discussion? You can give you're point of view. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 18:37, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits

[edit]

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you must sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 17:09, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

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 Invited, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Escape Orbit (Talk) 22:13, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Ivoted

[edit]

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 Ivoted 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 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay.

If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. elektrikSHOOS 22:17, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

[edit]
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for spamming or advertising. From your contributions, this seems to be your only purpose. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Atama 22:59, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

Request reason:

Excuse me but I only created one article that wasn't properly sourced yet. I understand that Wikipedia shouldn't be used to promote products and I apologize for not completing it. I was genuinely trying to add an article about a software that I like. It's free and very useful. I has also been covered by various media outlets. I don't work for the companies I've written about. On the other hand, I have been contributing to other kinds of articles as well, with entertainment topics. I love technology and entertainment. That why I write about it. I hope you can reconsider blocking me and maybe give me the chance to rewrite the last article. I'm still learning. Thanks again!

Accept reason:

  • What gave the impression you were a spammer is the fact that you simply copy/pasted content directly from their website, and that content had a very promotional tone. So, the real problem is that you plagiarized and violated copyright. The indefinite block does seem to be a bit of an over reaction however, and I will be speaking with the blocking admin about it. Beeblebrox (talk) 15:12, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I was never warned that my posts could lead to me being blocked. Also, the only article that had 'copied' elements was the most recent one. I agree with you. I think the administrator was a bit harsh by blocking in less than 3 minutes after I created the post. I wasn't even able to finish the article and, again, I didn't get any warnings. Thanks for your help. I would appreciate it if you could give me a second chance. Justtheme (talk) 9:16, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
The admin who blocked you has a completely valid point [1] about the general nature of your contributions. I am unblocking your account, but the main reason is because you were not sufficiently warned. Now that you have been blocked and the problems with your edits have been made clear, that is no longer an issue and continuing to add the type of material you have added in the past will likely lead to this account being blocked again. It would be a good idea for you to review the following pages before resuming editing:
Welcome back. Beeblebrox (talk) 15:45, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

July 2011

[edit]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Electronic publishing, you may be blocked from editing. Stop trying to give undue prominence to Mygazines. If you continue you may be blocked. andy (talk) 09:01, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Sigh. Did you learn nothing from your previous block? You clearly have some sort of conflict of interest regarding "Mygazines" that you are unable to overcome. I am therefore placing a unilateral topic ban on this account: You are not permitted to edit any material related to Mygazines or its competitors, broadly construed, for a period of one year. Failure to abide by this restriction will lead to this account being indefinitely blocked without further warning as you have already been repeatedly advised to stop this behavior and have been blocked for it once already. Beeblebrox (talk) 21:00, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sigh. Look at my edits. I actually removed all the content that wasn't verifiable from that article ("Mygazines"). Banning someone just for reediting an article without checking the actual edits is simply wrong. The accuracy and verifiability of that text has been improved. It now includes proper sources and no promotional content. Of course I have an interest in Mygazines, in the same way that I follow iVoted and many other tech companies. Otherwise why would I write about it? But that doesn't mean that I can't be objective, learn and improve the way I participate and collaborate on Wikipedia's content. Check my recent edits and tell me. Honestly, this is ridiculous. Justtheme (talk) 21:08, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Excuse me? I did check them. It was quite easy since you have only made two article edits since being unblocked. One was to update the Mygazines logo, [2] and the other was to move their link to the top of the list of vendors in the electronic publishing article [3], once again disrupting the alphabetical order of that list on order to increase the prominence of the Mygazines link. That is the sum total of your contributions since the block was lifted unless you have been using some other identity. If you would like to appeal my decision you may open a thread asking for review at the incident noticeboard. Beeblebrox (talk) 01:39, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
