Hello, Bold Fortune, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

You may not quite know what Wikipedia is and isn't for. The links above help explain, but in brief, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, where we produce articles about notable, non-trivial encyclopedic subjects.

I'm sorry your article about yourself and your good works for the world was deleted, but it was correctly deleted under Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion because it was a sales message for a non-notable product and its author. We gets lots of these articles every day and delete them all, so don't feel targeted - it's nothing personal.

Have a read of the links I've provided, then find an article on which you've got expertise and add to it. It's a rewarding thing to do, even though it isn't helping you sell more of your product. ➔ REDVEЯS was here 12:21, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Free or paid for, you are still attempting to provide a product and sell it through Wikipedia (along with yourself). Yes I read the article, and yes the deletion remains correct. I'm sorry this annoys you, but it is you against the whole of Wikipedia's policies and guidelines here.
By the way, you need to post responses at the bottom of the page or they get deleted. You also need to sign your posts by putting ~~~~ after what you write. And you don't need to quote the previous person's post - this is a wiki, not a bulletin board. Thanks. ➔ REDVEЯS was here 12:47, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
