Hi. Wikipedia requires that its editors [[WP:AGF|assume good faith]]. However, it's difficult to believe that you're not trying to spam when you add content like [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Trustee_savings_bank&diff=prev&oldid=99262514 this] or the now-deleted [[Broker-to-Banker]] article. If you want to add information about a company, the first thing to do is to make sure that this company satisfies our [[WP:CORP|criteria for notability of companies]]. If it does, then you should consider writing an article which is not promotional in nature but simply reflects unbiased information about the company: what it does, where it is located, its size and so on. Furthermore, since I believe you have particular ties with that company, please read [[WP:COI|our guideline on editing with conflicts of interest]]. Thank you, [[User:Pascal.Tesson|Pascal.Tesson]] 06:27, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Regarding edits made to MySpace

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, Paulhorner! However, your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the link you added, matching rule groups\.myspace\.com, is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia's external links policy for more information. If the link was to an image, please read Wikipedia's image tutorial on how to use a more appropriate method to insert the image into an article. If your link was intended to promote a site you own, are affiliated with, or will make money from inclusion in Wikipedia, please note that inserting spam into Wikipedia is against policy. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! Shadowbot 03:57, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You need to discuss the Scientology section that you continually try to add to the MySpace article. This is not well-sourced and largely the result of original research as there is no evidence of any cabal by MySpace against Scientology critics per any secondary sources. I will keep removing it unless there is a consensus for adding it and the content abides by the guidelines of Wikipedia. ju66l3r 06:24, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Paul horner article

A tag has been placed on Paul horner, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. ju66l3r 06:25, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • I think you must be the same guy that posted to my talk page. You should try to remember to sign in, so that your actions are all under the one username and not anonymous ip-addresses - usernames are more respected here. At any rate, I responded on my talk page. Smee 19:30, 7 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Userpage

You may wish to add stuff to your User Page. There is some interesting information on User Pages at Wikipedia:User page. Here is the list of Userboxes, and this is some Wikipedia information about Userboxes. Yours, Smee 23:11, 7 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Re: What did I delete on the Church of Scientology page?

Hello,

My warning was issued to an anonymous user who was blanking the page and replacing it with his/her own comments. If you received my message in error, then please disregard it and accept my apologies. --Ann Stouter 02:09, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Warning

With regards to your comments on The Bridge (film): Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Diff --Justanother 02:55, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I noticed that there is another account with a similar name at Paul Horner (talk · contribs). I recognize that this other account has not been active since December 2005, but if the other account was also opened by you it would be good for you to redirect its pages to your current account in an effort to be transparent about the fact that you have opened and actively edited using multiple accounts over time (per the third paragraph on WP:SOCK). I'd be happy to help you forward these pages to this current account if I'm correct in my assumption that this was an old account that you had forgotten about or forgotten the password. Thanks. ju66l3r 05:34, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Glad I could help. I redirected your old account pages to these current pages. Since you have very few edits on the old account, it shouldn't be too big of a problem. I also modified your current user page to add a link back to your old account page for transparency. The link will loop back to the same page as a sort of self-reference, but anyone paying attention will notice the redirect and be able to access your old contributions if they felt the dire urge.
I'm happy to discuss the issues with you at The Bridge (film) talk page. Just remember that while intelligent discussion is fun and rewarding, the ultimate goal is to build to something we can all agree on based on the merits of the arguments presented and their foundation in the policies and guidelines of the Wikipedia project. Sometimes argumentation for the sake of the argument or enjoyment of it is counter-productive. I don't feel this is necessarily the case, just a word of caution as you work to improve Wikipedia. Thanks. ju66l3r 06:05, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

An Automated Message from HagermanBot

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should 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 name 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! HagermanBot 05:49, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
