[edit] Ashurst
Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content, as you did to Ashurst. It is considered vandalism. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. -- Netsnipe (Talk) 17:32, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
If you want to start a new article on your law firm, please abide by the guidelines set out in WP:SPAM or else your article may be deleted from Wikipedia for being an advertisement. -- Netsnipe (Talk) 17:32, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
Your article has been renamed to Ashurst (Law firm) to comply with Wikipedia naming conventions. Ashurst, international law firm, however will be deleted since Wikipedia doesn't allow duplicate articles. I have also retracted the copyright violation notice from because you probably do own the copyright on the text, so apologies for that. However, the

This article or section is written like an advertisement. Please help rewrite this article from a neutral point of view per Wikipedia policy. Mark blatant advertising for speedy deletion with {{db-spam}}. (help, talk) |
notice will remain on the page until it is improved to Wikipedia standards. Another editor independent of me may however nominate it for deletion. Please read the link on that notice for tips on how to improve your article. Happy editing, Netsnipe (Talk) 17:47, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] User:Ashurst
Please delete all material relating to your law firm from your user page. Wikipedia:Userpage#What_can_I_not_have_on_my_user_page prohibits "substantial content on your user page that is unrelated to Wikipedia." I'm sorry that I seem so heavy handed, but these policies are there from preventing everyone from turning Wikipedia into their own advertising service -- you're not the first one (and won't be the last).
Regarding the "advert" notice, please do not remove it until you expand the article. It is there to remind everyone that more work needs to be done on this article in order to remain in an encyclopedia. Articles that fall short of our standards will be deleted. Don't just talk about what your firm offers. Write about its history, famous cases it's won or loss, references to press coverage does wonders for an article's chances at survival. Since you started this article, you're now obliged to work on it. Wikipedia isn't a free ride.
PS: You can reply to any of these messages and ask for help by editing this very page. Please don't remove anything though, because that is against policy. Cheers, Netsnipe (Talk) 18:00, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
