User talk:RyanTylerThomas

Welcome!

Hello, RyanTylerThomas, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was OutRank by Rogers, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or any other editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome! —Unforgettableid (talk) 00:24, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

September 2014

Hello, I'm Unforgettableid. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to OutRank by Rogers because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. —Unforgettableid (talk) 00:24, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating your user page for deletion

Dear sir,

I noticed that your user page mentions that you helped found Switch Advertising and helped grow the user experience design firm Playground Inc. I noticed that it mentions that you nowadays also are a man who "consults for companies across North America and is working on launching a new beverage company". That is all fine and good, and I know you meant well, but I am still nominating your user page for deletion.

Promotional writing is not allowed here on Wikipedia. If you are here to promote yourself, or to promote various products and services, please know that such promotion is not welcome on Wikipedia. Please see Wikipedia:Alternative outlets for some other places where you can place your promotional writing instead.

Please see the notice below. If you plan to recreate your user page, please read WP:NOTFORPROMOTION first. May I also suggest that, if you feel you can recreate it without violating the aforementioned policy, you should use the first person ("I"), not the third person ("he").

Kind regards, —Unforgettableid (talk) 00:31, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of User:RyanTylerThomas

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 User:RyanTylerThomas, 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 encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. —Unforgettableid (talk) 00:32, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
