Frequently asked questions

• Where can I learn more about editing Wikipedia?
  • The best place to start is at the Help Desk. Other useful links include the style guide, the list of policies and guidelines, and the guide to editing. Please feel free to ask on my talk page if you have any questions.
• Why was the link I added removed from an article?
  • Typically, links are removed because they fail the external links guideline. Although many links are deleted because they were placed by spammers, links to good sites are also removed on a regular basis. This is because Wikipedia isn't a directory service; the mere fact a site exists does not mean it warrants a link.
• Why was my article deleted?
  • Pages can be deleted for many reasons; there are very specific criteria that govern the process. Please review this article for more information.
• Why was information relating to my company or organization removed?
  • This is a very common question, based on a misunderstanding of Wikipedia's purpose. This project is not a directory, forum, or search engine, and as such it is not a place for you to post advertisements about your company or your product.
• Why were my spelling changes reverted?

Wikipedia's Manual of Style recommends the use of regional varieties of English, based on the topic and the article's contribution history. Please avoid changing spellings unless they differ from the appropriate version. Most spell checking software can be configured to use British and American English; some extend this to include other varieties such as Canadian or Australian English.

What did I do wrong? I did not link to my own website. I did not post any of the videos in the playlist linked to. The playlist is obviously of interest to the page reader. This is undeniable. If you are going to remove this kind of contribution, I will never contribute to Wikipedia again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Webdev17 (talk • contribs) 15:44, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi Ckatz, I'm not too bothered about this, but you just deleted nominated this as C4 but there hasn't been an AfD AFAICT: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Free Studio. SmartSE (talk) 20:08, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

It appears to closely resemble Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DVDVideoSoft. --Ckatz^chat_spy 20:09, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

(edit conflict)Ah, I see. I had noticed that AfD, but didn't realise it was essentially about the same thing. Out of interest, since I may soon be able to do it myself, would a {{Uw-adblock}} be justified here or not? Cheers SmartSE (talk) 20:16, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

First of all, i was pointed to the fact that my previous article DVDVideoSoft is written about the company, not the software (the comment was given on DVDVideoSoft Talkpage by Fleet Command). This is why i had to follow his advice and make a new article. The article still needs to be improved, however the new article differs a lot from the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DVDVideoSoft article, written in August 2010. It has been revised and redone quite substantially. Yes, its' quite the same subject but not quite the same article! Noelle pozzi (talk) 20:16, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

"It has been revised and redone quite substantially" amounts to an acceptance that it is a reworking of the same article, not a new article, even though its ostensible subject is different. Yes, it was rewritten and expanded, but the rewriting did not address the reason for deletion. A fact which editors who come here to write about a subject dear to their heart (or their pocket) often fail to grasp is that notability is a property of the subject of the article, not of the article itself. No amount of rewriting an article will turn a non-notable subject into a notable one. JamesBWatson (talk) 22:02, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

Marsden

The Marsden page violates both BLP and the arbcomm decision. It may be sourced, but it is completely selectiove and negative. Consensus on a bad article does not make it better. Spoonkymonkey (talk) 16:05, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Hispanic Marketing

Still do not know why you removed the article. still awaiting an explanation. Thanks Feeps490 (talk) 18:50, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

WikiCup 2011 January newsletter

We are half way through round one of the WikiCup. Signups are now closed, and we have 129 listed competitors, 64 of whom will make it to round two. Congratulations to The Bushranger (submissions), who, at the time of writing, has a comfortable lead with 228 points, followed by Hurricanehink (submissions), with 144 points. Four others have over 100 points. Congratulations also go to Yellow Evan (submissions), who scored the first points in the competition, claiming for Talk:Hurricane King/GA1, Miyagawa (submissions), who scored the first non-review points in the competition, claiming for Dognapping, and Jarry1250 (submissions) who was the first in the competition to use our new "multiplier" mechanic (explanation), claiming for Grigory Potemkin, a subject covered on numerous Wikipedias. Thanks must also go to Jarry1250 for dealing with all bot work- without you, the competition wouldn't be happening!

A running total of claims can be seen here. However, numerous competitors are yet to score at all- please remember to submit content soon after it is promoted, so that the judges are able to review entries. The number of points that will be needed to reach round two is not clear- everyone needs to get their entries in now to guarantee their places! If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.
