Welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia. To find out how to make useful contributions, take a look at the welcome page. To stay in Wikipedia, an article has to be about something notable, that is, of general interest. Click on Notability for an explanation of what that means, and on Notability (music) for more detail. Also, it must give independently verifiable sources. Articles that don't meet these requirements are likely to be deleted. Follow the links below to learn more:

To find out more about creating articles, read the Introduction and the Guide to creating your first article.
You should not write articles about yourself, your band, or your best friend - that's a conflict of interest.
Wikipedia is not an advertising service. Before writing about your own business, read Business' FAQ.
For experiments, please use the sandbox.

Speedy deletion of Rudi Protrudi

A tag has been placed on Rudi Protrudi requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. triwbe (talk) 17:02, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK, beyond the copyright violation, the problem with cutting and pasting an artist's own page to Wikipedia is that it's advertising. See WP:SPAM and WP:NPOV. Also, you're his girlfriend, so you have a conflict of interest, see WP:COI. You should let someone uninvolved with the artist write the article -- that way, it's more likely to be written in a neutral tone. NawlinWiki (talk) 17:04, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please reply

OK I now know which article you are talking about. Rather than keep posting it. Rewrite from scratch,in a neutral tone,but note that if your is your boyfriend then you have a COI and your work will be closely scrutinised. Theresa Knott | The otter sank 17:05, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have unblocked you. But please do as I say OK. Reply to this message first Theresa Knott | The otter sank 17:52, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you don't reply I cannot help you. Theresa Knott | The otter sank 17:57, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I guess, I have to reply here, okay i will use my own words to rewrite the text that I have permission to use... Thanks much!

Excellent! I've started the article and will be editing it too. Try looking at other musician articles to gauge the tone we require. Theresa Knott | The otter sank 18:05, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Rudi Protrudi has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): rule: '\bmyspace\.com' (link(s): http://myspace.com/thefuzztones) . If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, or similar site, then please check the information on the external site thorougly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creators copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).

If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks!
