From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello Arch26 and CWood, I'm not sure if this message will reach you. I am totally new to Wikipedia (started with article entries/enhancements on Monday, May 8th)... Thank you both for the edits and changes to the information I've worked on to date. I'm getting the hang of things as I see other articles, edits and contributions. Your expertise and commitment to qualuity Wikipedia articles is much appreciated! Cheers! Economicdevelopment

You're welcome. --Arch26 00:03, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding Lovely Commercial Links

Please stop. If you continue to use Wikipedia for advertising, you will be blocked from editing. ForbiddenWord 18:13, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

I think that is a bit harsh. It is clear to me that you have good intentions here on Wikipedia. However, as stated above, using the encyclopedia for advertising and promotion is strictly against policy. Since you have contributed significantly to Alberta content, and since I feel that these were mostly positive contributions that I feel should stay, I would only ask that you review them again to confirm that they stand up against Wikipedia policies and guidlines. Please ensure that these articles are devoid of point-of-view statements and generalizations, and also of promotion. If those guidlines can be adhered to, then I think your contibutions will be a strong asset to the encyclopedia and to the body of information for southern Alberta. --Arch26 02:51, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
One more thing: I would actually start to go about it by removing the quotes (as they are pure promo). If there are important NPOV points within the quotations, then paraphrase them. --Arch26 03:05, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

This was clearly an edit to his own page. I would not regard it as vandalism. --Arch26 02:51, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
I removed promotional and unencylopedic material from some of the pages you have contributed to, however, I will leave the rest for now for you to either edit the material or remove it completely. CWood 04:23, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
