Where does Wikipedia content come from?

... I was just reading that page and my mouse slipped and hit the edit button. Then I tripped and as I was falling I hit the keyboard and typed all that content. As I struggled to my feet I was pawing at the desk and the mouse came down and hit save. (Crossmr, December 2010)

FYI conflict of interest guideline - Paperless Warehousing

Hi,

I created the Paperless Warehousing page with the help of a consultant and have received your message. Could you please tell me where I go to find the page and edit so it meets the conflict of interest guidelines and neutral view point.

Thank You. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mclinch (talkcontribs) 23:57, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your text, culminating in Please visit our web site - Paperless Warehousing, was highly promotional. Admins who will provide copies of deleted articles are in the category linked on my bulletin board above. If you don't understand the policies and guidelines linked in the {{uw-coi}} warning on your talk page, re-read Wikipedia:Spam. – Athaenara 00:31, 31 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Athaenara,

I have contacted one of the Admins (HJ Mitchell) but I seem to be going around in cycles. Could you please advise me where I can get a copy of the article so I can have it modified in accordance with the relevant policies.

thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mclinch (talkcontribs) 01:27, 8 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In the context of Wikipedia, which is an online encyclopedia, not a free listing or advertising service (see Wikipedia is not a soapbox or means of promotion), you are a spammer: a single-purpose account with a conflict of interest, known in Wikipedia shorthand as a coi spa. If your company is sufficiently notable as confirmed by independent reliable sources, editors who don't have your promotional intent may write an article about it. – Athaenara 01:45, 8 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of files per F8

in re: Building mode0, 01, 1, 02, 2, 03, 3, 04, 4, 05, 5.

Hi! I'm working on Commons:Category:License migration candidates and one of the files is File:Building mode0.png (there is a serie of those files). It has not been transfered to Commons via bot so the description page is not "the usual one". I checked the original on enwiki and it is GFDL with disclaimers but the file on commons is without disclaimers. Once the file is deleted on enwiki it is hard for users to check if file has been transfered correct. Therefor it is importaint that deleting admin checks that information has been transfered correct. I'm sure you know that and you just missed this one. Just wanted to let you know :-) --MGA73 (talk) 20:07, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The uploader's original November 2006 {{GFDL-self}} license (which has included a warning since May 2008 not to add with disclaimers) was changed by a bot to {{GFDL-self-with-disclaimers}} in May 2007. The {{GFDL-user-w}} license is consistent with the uploader's original license. – Athaenara 01:28, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The original license did have disclaimers in November 2006 per this version when the file was uploaded. In an attempt to get rid of disclaimers a new template with disclaimers was created ({{GFDL-self-with-disclaimers}}) and all files that had disclaimers at that time was changed (by a bot) so they used this new license (with disclaimers). After the big change was done the disclaimers was removed from the old license that should be used for new uploads. So the file had disclaimers when it was uploaded. --MGA73 (talk) 16:03, 11 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I see, the general disclaimer is the heavy here. If there is a specific course of action you'd like to recommend, please feel free to do so.Athaenara 05:53, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I updated the license to {{GFDL-user-en-with-disclaimers}} for all eleven files. – Athaenara 06:00, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of pages -

Hi Athaenara - I am representing VRL Financial News. We publish 12 different magazines in financial sector. Our intern Lauren had created pages in Wikipedia for all these magazines, giving general information about the magazines, but many of them were deleted. The deletion log says that the contents were ambiguous and promotional. I would like to make changes to them so that they adhere to the guidelines set by Wikipedia. Could you please help me understand the modification required in these pages. Look forward to hearing from you. Webvrl (talk) 10:16, 10 February 2011 (UTC)Thank you - Gayatri Gadre[reply]

Unambiguous advertising or promotion is commonly specified in {{db-g11}} deletion summaries. For more information, see the Wikipedia:Spam guideline as well as the pages linked in the {{uw-coi}} warning on your own talk page. – Athaenara 04:00, 11 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

==Hi A, Thanks for your response. Would you be kind enough to make these pages available for me to edit please. After editing them, I will request a review by administrators and once they are as per the guidelines, I will make them live. Please let me know if this is possible, or if there is other way to get the contents approved before putting them live (as the pages with those names are already deleted, and help manual suggests not to recreate them, or it may cause your id to be blocked.

Hi Athaenara. Isn't it a little funny to blank/delete the talk page for an article that is currently undergoing AfD? I'm trying to figure this out. Thanks. Logical Cowboy (talk) 23:52, 11 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

... for removing my archives. I'm going to try that Signpost-subscription you're using to avoid this in the future. Cheers! TETalk 05:58, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome. (What's the Signpost connection?) – Athaenara 06:07, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Guess I could've explained that better. I was subscribed for talkpage delivery and during periods of inactivity the Signposts were triggering unnecessary archives. Thanks again. TETalk 17:06, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, of course! Yes, {{Signpost-subscription}} is much more convenient than loading up on fast-expiring content. – Athaenara 19:43, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Born On Original Motives

Hi there,

I represent BOOM (Born On Original Motives). I created a Wiki page yesterday and it has already been deleted. I am not trying to promote my brand, just trying to explain who we are. Is it possible to keep this wiki entry open while I add to it? Any tips to keep it live and not have it appear as a promotion? Any help is greatly appreciated as I am not Wiki savvy. Thanks!!

It showed up in Database reports/Broken redirects because it redirected to Taj Pharmaceuticals Limited, one of many similar pages which were deleted per {{db-g11}} as spam. – Athaenara 12:47, 23 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for restoring, I know it has been deleted many times mostly because of notability/credible sources not found. Which I suppose to fix it. KuwarOnline Talk 04:10, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Intergen

Please undelete page "Intergen"

I requested the speedy deletion for "Intergen". Thank you for responding so promptly! Upon digging further, this company does appear to be notable and they should be given a chance to re-write their article.

Will you please reinstate the page? I will then change the AFD template to {{advert}} to give them some time.

More on the Talk page.

QUESTION: Is is possible to make the display of text (or a template) happen only before or after a specific date? What I'm thinking is that in two weeks I would like {{advert}} to go away and {{db-spam}} to appear automatically if no one edits the page.

Thanks!

Michaeloqu (talk) 03:24, 1 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

 Done, but it's the sort of spam which we're under no obligation to enable on Wikipedia. Your idea of an {{advert}} tag which would automatically convert to {{db-spam}} after two weeks of no improvement is a good one which I don't know how to implement. – Athaenara 17:58, 1 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. As far as my "autodate" idea, where should I bring that up? Town Pump? Thanks again. Michaeloqu (talk) 09:13, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of Noor photo agency

Hi,

Last night you deleted Noor photo agency page on wikipedia. I was wondering if you could tell me how to restore the deleted page as it was deleted under 'unambiguous advertising' The said page was not finished and although it was not advertising (the other leading photojournalism agencies Magnum Photos and VII Photos are also on wikipedia) i can understand how you might have mistaken it. The agency is also a foundation that is a non profit organisation which was what i wanted to write about. I hope to hear from you soon. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.113.2.204 (talk) 17:11, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The deleted page was a spam vanity article largely copied from http://www.noorimages.com/agency and http://consequencesbynoor.com/, as Rrburke noted when tagging it. See the Wikipedia:Spam guideline and the {{uw-coi}} warning on your talk page for more. – Athaenara 18:28, 2 March 2011 (UTC)~[reply]

I feel like Wuhwuzdat is dedicated to my Speedy Deletion, could you help please? I am working "hard" within my personal draft space to help write an entry for a non-profit society. Wuhwuzdat I think strongly believes that my page should be deleted. Do you agree? What should I do to save a draft, and improve the quality so it does not meet the criteria for speedy deletion? I'd like to have a few people who are higher ranked Wiki Editors, preferably people with a technical background, like engineering to look at it. I need some help.
