I hope you don't mind, but I noticed your post on the new user log, and I added your byline. -- NetEsq 15:08, 21 May 2004 (UTC)

Hello, Garth. I had a relative in Bellevue some years ago but lost touch. Still have some over the hills in Yakima, though, so I take more interest in Washington than most New Zealanders do. See

Dcooper,

I work in the webdev section for GMI. I will get the proper authorization for Wikipedia. Sorry about the mis-procedure.

Irishlaw

Also, make sure that the article isn't an advertisement for the company. As it stands now, it could be deleted as an advertisement. The policy about advertisements is described here: WP:ADS--Dcooper 19:53, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Nvm last reply. I will drastically reduce the amount of links. It was not my intention to make an advertisement. There are many companies listed throughout Wiki with larger more informative posts.

Irishlaw

I think the reason it sounds like an ad is because it comes from the company's website. Maybe, if it were rewritten it would seem more neutral. --Dcooper 20:04, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

I completely understand. Thanks for the help. I would still consider myself a Wiki-noob

[edit] GMI

Notability is now fine. Still issues with WP:Peacock and WP:COI but these wouldn't justify deleting the article. May I suggest you put any further content you propose on the talk pages and let other people sort out the peacock issues in due course. --BozMo talk 19:54, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

I have restored the page since I cannot find a deletion log for it. Some of these redirect pages probably need to go. On any we keep please don't forget to redirect talk pages too. --BozMo talk 14:55, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

The page was renamed to Global Market Insite. No one would have found it at its old title. Resurgent insurgent 23:11, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] I cannot edit any longer, why?

Can someone explain why I can no longer make edits? I follow Wiki rules and communicate with Wiki editors when issues arise. If this has anything to do with the Resurgent Insurgent, I have no idea who that is or how it was involved with the GMI Wiki page. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Irishlaw 21:21, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Is there any error message when you click "edit this page"? If yes, please copy the entire screenful of text that appears when you click "edit", and paste it below this line. I am otherwise unable to conclude why you're being prevented from editing. Resurgent insurgent 07:33, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for giving me sufficient information. I have changed the block options and you should be able to edit after logging in. Resurgent insurgent 15:51, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:GMI Logo.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:GMI Logo.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 01:49, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Enter Magneto

I have nominated Enter Magneto, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Enter Magneto. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.
