- Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
- Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or sock puppetry.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Cablefree, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.thefullwiki.org/Cablefree.
It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.
If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

Hello, Millsbi. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you have an external relationship with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
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.
- 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. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.
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.Deb (talk) 09:57, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

CableFree
[edit]Okay. From the duplicate detector report created by the bot it's obvious there is a lot of wording in the article you created that was taken from the company website. This is not just a copyright issue. If you're using material from a website created by the company for the purposes of promoting its products, then you are trying to promote the company. I don't see anything in your article that would merit keeping it, but I will move it to your userspace so you can work on it. Please don't upload it until you've addressed these issues.

Speedy deletion nomination of CableFree
[edit]Hello Millsbi,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged CableFree for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. ubiquity (talk) 16:25, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

Advice
[edit]Let me give you some advice about new articles. It seems that you added an article CableFree not once but twice, and it was speedy-deleted both times. You had been notified that it contained copyright violations. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and posting copyright violation material can result in being blocked. More generally, if you aren't entirely sure whether an article is ready for article space (mainspace), it is a good idea to use the Articles for Creation process to have the article reviewed. You may have been sure that the article was ready for article space, but it wasn't, both because it was too promotional, and because it contained copyright violations. Use AFC for new articles, at least until you are thoroughly familiar with Wikipedia policies and guidelines, including the rules about copyright and the rules about promotional articles.

- Language like "the company has invested heavily in R&D to develop novel wireless products and technologies combining in-house expertise with collaboration with notable Universities with a goal of delivering novel wireless products to growing international markets" gets you tagged as a marketer, not somebody interested in adding impartial, objective language to this encyclopedia. --Orange Mike | Talk 17:38, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
