User talk:Erin815

Welcome!

Hello, Erin815, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, like The Nation's Health, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

Speedy deletion nomination of The Nation's Health[edit]

A tag has been placed on The Nation's Health, 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 as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Potential conflicts of interest[edit]

I see that you have edited a number of pages related to the APHA, and that you have provided an image as "Came from The Nation's Health Staff", which suggests that you are on or working for that staff. If so, you may want to be aware that Wikipedia has strong conflict of interest guidelines that you may want to review; editing the articles on an employer would be considered a problematic conflict of interest. --Nat Gertler (talk) 21:40, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Status and Advice[edit]

As reviewing administrator, I removed the deletion tag, for it was not wholly promotional. But it had many promotional elements, & I removed them. I also have some more trimming to do. Please take the warning about COI seriously, and do not restore material that I remove. We do not include names other than the editor in chief; we do not include subscription details. We list awards and the like, we do not both list them and highlight them. There are some things you could usefully add: We need a 3rd party source for the awards. We need a source for the circulation. We need a list of the major indexing services that cover it. We would call it a professional magazine, not a newspaper, and I will change some wording accordingly. DGG ( talk ) 21:53, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free rationale for File:TNHfrontpage.JPG[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:TNHfrontpage.JPG. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 08:15, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
