I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{help me}} before the question.

Please do not continue to add the content you originally added to this article. I invite you to familiarize yourself with our manual of style before editing again. Wikipedia is not a place to paste PR copy, and it does not exist to promote companies or products, but rather to document their notability. I believe that your magazine meets the notability guidelines, which is why I did not mark it for deletion, and it was OK for you to delete that red "proposed deletion" tag. But, the article needs to be written in a neutral, encyclopedic tone, and it requires references. Also, do not remove tags from the article unless you've fixed the issue they were added for in the first place. Again, please go through the manual of style before you edit again. Thanks. §FreeRangeFrog 19:01, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

So I tried to establish the notability of your magazine but I was unable to. I nominated it for deletion. You can try and add references to establish notability (see WP:NMAGAZINE), or join the deletion discussion here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Level Renner. There is no time limit or anything; other Wikipedia editors will determine if the article should be kept or deleted. §FreeRangeFrog 19:42, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, Kevbalance. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Level Renner, you may need to consider our guidance on conflicts of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

  • Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
  • Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. --Drm310 (talk) 18:37, 22 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
