User talk:Mascomm84

September 2017

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy or request a change of username.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose.

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page. Thank you.

Accept reason:

I have globally renamed your account and unblocked you. Please remember that editing articles with which you have a conflict of interest is highly discouraged, nor is promotion or spam allowed. Also, if you are making edits as part of a job or other arrangement for which you receive compensation you must disclose that you are paid for your edits. Undisclosed paid editing is against the site's terms of use. Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} If you reply here, please ping me by using {{re|Ks0stm}} in your reply. 18:01, 15 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, I am brand new to Wikipedia and looking for some guidance. I'd love to get more involved by contributing both edits to articles of interest/knowledge as well as new articles that contribute to the overall ecosystem. Would someone mind looking at an article I'm working on in sandbox mode? I'd like to make sure formatting is correct and I'd also like to add some imagery. Thanks!

Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to Revelator Coffee. I noticed that when you added the image to the infobox, you added it as a thumbnail. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks!

@Zackmann08: Thanks for the info - that's very helpful with formatting!

Deletion discussion about Revelator Coffee

Hello, Mascomm84,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Revelator Coffee should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Revelator Coffee .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,
