AfD nomination of Geeks in Space

I have nominated Geeks in Space, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Geeks in Space. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Rtphokie (talk) 13:17, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Geeks in Space

The article Geeks in Space has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable little web cast from Slashdot's early days. No sources and there has not been any episodes in ten years. meshach (talk) 01:45, 5 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. meshach (talk) 01:45, 5 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Source

Hi, what is the source for eZ supporting MariaDB? The source you amended makes no such claim. Also, the other source is a broken link, and should be fixed. Greenman (talk) 18:37, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would have to say eZ Publish has supported Mariadb through its MySQL based sql implementation from its creation not update. I need an example of a source that is acceptable Kracker (talk) 06:53, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of 7xWebsites.com

Hello Kracker,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged 7xWebsites.com for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia 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 please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

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

This page should not be speedy deleted because... It is a record of my company which supports open source development unlike anyother in the eZ Publish CMS Community. I'm just trying to document our rich history (over 20 years) of contributions. This was my first attempt in a long while to use wikipedia. Could this page be saved somehow. I feel we are unknown to the world and was trying to document not spam. Kracker (talk) 19:17, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Kracker,

Regarding 7xWebsites, you might consider asking the administrator who deleted the article if they would consider restoring it to User or Draft space where you could work on making it less promotional. It does sound like you have a conflict-of-interest regarding this subject but maybe you could persuade them.

If you have other questions on editing on Wikipedia, please bring them to the Teahouse. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:28, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Kracker. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template), including links or details of reliable sources that support your suggestions;
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:26, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
