User talk:Taylorluker
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
You can sign your comments using four tildes ~~~~. Not sure what this is about, the article you had as the section heading appears not to have been deleted by anyone, if the title was correct. I did delete your user page which had a speedy request on it, but I haven't found any work on it - I'll have another look and put it in a sandbox if I find anything. jimfbleak 14:55, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
- I see another editor removed spammy material - a price list is 'not encyclopaedic. Any editor can edit any page, you do not WP:OWN the article, even if it is your project. Advertisements are not permitted, and material may also be deleted is it fails the [[Wikipedia:Notability|notability criteria. You may also note that advertisements on user pages and talk pages can be deleted too. jimfbleak 15:04, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

- Even without prices, such a comprehensive list looks highly promotional. You are supposed to be describing the product, not adding material to promote it or its add-ons - I liked the sortable table though, jimfbleak 15:46, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

If you look at any page history, the user is always listed by each edit, so it's easy to find the user page. Once it was tagged, it also came up on the articles for speedy deletion page. jimfbleak 16:12, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Clarification
I think you may have misunderstood. There was a difference between the article RapidWeaver and your userpage. The article did not contain spam, so I didn't touch it. Your userpage contained a price list, so at the very least the price list needed to be removed, and someone decided to remove the whole article. Wikipedia's policy against advertising may seem excessively harsh to you, but it is what it is. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by YechielMan (talk • contribs).
I must agree with the above, I do not think offense was intended, however, it is how the user space text read. Navou 17:19, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
- Based on your follow-up comment to me, I will start a discussion at deletion review. That is the formal address for requests to undelete articles. I am not sure how to handle this, but Deletion Review is moderated by some of Wikipedia's most senior editors, and they will try to negotiate a reasonable solution with you. Best regards.

[edit] Your sandbox
I have removed the MFD (miscellany for deletion) template, and the criteria for speedy deletion template from your sandbox as I do not believe it was intended to be MFD'd there, and I do not believe it meets the criteria for speedy deletion being located in /sandbox. It does not appear blatant. The original text you were working on appears intact. Good luck editing, Navou 18:51, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Your userpage
I have read your reasoning on User_talk:YechielMan and am willing to send you the deleted content of your userpage via email. For this, you'll have to set an email-id for your account at Special:Preferences. Also please note that price-lists are considered unencyclopaedic and unacceptable in articles (see Wikipedia:Spam for more details). You may use your userspace for developing articles however it's usually better if you use a clearly marked /Sandbox page rather than your userpage for this purpose.
