Hi Uberveritas, welcome to Wikipedia! This article was deleted per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cause marketing-- basically it was a bunch of advertising, and it kept getting recreated. So I "salted" it with protection against recreation. If you'd like to recreate it in a non-advertising format, let me know. It's easily unprotected. Cheers, Fang Aili talk 17:10, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
- Looks like you've gotten started. Good luck! --Fang Aili talk 17:23, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
Questions on Neutraily
[edit]{{helpme}}
I just barely started helping by working on a cause marketing article. I've barely had time to start with a stub. I see that an addition was made saying the article is not neutral? What am I doing wrong?
- Hi! An encyclopedia is a neutral thing. Wikipedia is no exception. Everything you write on Wikipedia must be what's refered to as "NPOV", or Neutral Point of View. I haven't looked over the article, and I'm prolly not the best person to sort out a pov. Read up on the policy over at WP:NPOV.
:)
Let me know if you need anything else, — Deon555talkdesk 05:50, 14 December 2006 (UTC)- Addit:
This page in a nutshell: All Wikipedia articles and other encyclopedic content must be written from a neutral point of view, representing views fairly, proportionately and without bias.
- Addit:
Basically that sums it up a bit more. If you need more help, just place the {{helpme}} back on your page, and I'll get someone else, who, hopefully is a little more skilled in the area to help you, or you can ask your question on the help desk, where hundreds of other edits can give you help/info etc. Thanks! — Deon555talkdesk 05:52, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
{{helpme}}
Thank you, Deon555. I believe I understand the policy. What I don't understand is why someone stated there was an issue with the neutrality. I don't have a point of view that I am trying to evangelize. I thought I could help with a topic that I have experience with. Frankly, it is frustrating to have this happening on the first project that I've tried to work on, especially since no explanation was given on the discussion page. *sigh* Uberveritas 05:57, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
- No need to keep re-adding the helpme template unless you need more help:) We keep getting notes about it on IRC. (see WP:IRC) ---J.S (T/C) 06:53, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
- Do you need more help? I'll check back here in a little bit. ---J.S (T/C) 06:53, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
Yes, I added it again because I am still confused and I thought it was suggested that I add it again to get more help from someone else. I apologize if I am doing anything wrong. I am excited to be here, but learning this system is slightly overwhelming. My remaining question is that I am struggling to understand how my start on a cause marketing article is using a non-neutral tone. Will someone help me (when you stop in) by removing any unwanted tags that are causing the notes on IRC that was mentioned. Thanks, Uberveritas 07:18, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
I'm retracting the above, as I am just going to keep working and do the best I can. However, if someone could still remove an unwanted helpme tags, I would appreciate it. Uberveritas 07:47, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
- Oh, no worries, the Helpme tag is taken care of. Your not doing anything wrong. Don't worry about making an honest mistake. I'll take a look at the article your working on and see if there's anything I can do to help. ---J.S (T/C) 22:19, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
- The article looks fine. I added some books I found on amazon.com. Might be useful for expanding the article further. Let me know if you need any help. ---J.S (T/C) 22:30, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
Fantastic, JS. Thanks :-) Uberveritas 02:58, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
