Hi there. Thanks for your contributions. It's good to have new articles about locations we're missing. Could I suggest, however, that you don't add the external links - otherwise, it looks like you're just spamming to incrase web traffic or Google rank for a particular real estate company. --OpenToppedBus - Talk to the driver 14:20, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

I think he is spamming. He adds www cedarcityonline com to every page he can, even for cities it doesn't cover. He's also been quite rude about it and refuses to talk. I wouldn't be supprised if he was employed by the site. I just went rhough each of his contribs and nearly all involve adding or restoring that site. Jaxad0127 17:17, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Hi There, I do not feel that adding a link to information about Cedar City to the Cedar City page is spamming. I realize that at times people like to get power hungry and delete links without merit ect. (Jaxad) I read the linking to extermal sites info provided from Wiki and it seems they are looking for exactly what I contributed. The site that I am linking provides UNIQUE content about Cedar City and the surrounding areas. The site provides not only Real Estate information but also community information. The site is also growing monthly, it contains in addition to real estate information (the real estate info alone justifies the link) a blog about current events in Cedar City and surrounding communities, recreation information, Schools information, Entertainment info, and Weather information. All of this content is unique content. I would also like to point out that my site was listed on this page for over 6 months until one power hungry CS major decided he would take it upon himself to delete useful, unique links to Cedar City information. As far as adding the site to surrounding areas the website encompasses all of Iron County and I think it merits a link to each of the cities. That said without a individual page for each of these towns I would be happy to compromise and only keep a link to the towns that have individual unique content on cedarcityonline.com until the time comes that city information for each city in Iron County is added to cedarcityonline.com.

I didn't mean to be rude. It's just that it doesn't have any place on some of the articles you've placed it on. It only covers some of those cities. I search the site with Google and it didn't find the word summit on any of it's pages. Keep it to those cities it covers. And it doesn't belong on the State's article. It doesn't cover all of Southern Utah like you said. And i didn't remove it in the first place. Someone else did along with other, minor commercial sites. I'll leave the link in there if you want to re-add it. I just found it a bit weird that almost all of your edits deal with adding/resootring/rewrding the link.
And see, talking doesn't hurt. Jaxad0127 20:23, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Like I said we are in the process of adding each city in Iron County to the website then eventually all of Southern Utah. As you can see from the site it is quality, unique content. That takes time or money to develope. I will readd it but it will most likely be deleted by some over zelos editor or other agent anyways.

Don't worry about bots. Revert their edits once and they won't do it again. Jaxad0127 23:48, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spam

Please stop. If you continue spamming you will be blocked from editing. OhNoitsJamie Talk 19:09, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Jamie--- You should really read the pages that you remove before you remove the links. All of those pages have relevant high quality unique content about the cities in which they are listed. I personally find it annoying that without cause or reason you remove links from pages and areas that you know nothing about. You can call me personally to discuss this if you have a problem with it. 435-531-3063


I did look at the website. It's your own site, and it's commercial, and as such is a clear violation of WP:EL and WP:SPAM. I don't see evidence that "many other editors" sanctioned this link. You will be blocked if you add it again. OhNoitsJamie Talk 19:25, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Jamie You are a complete and utter fucking idiot. You seriously need a life because you obviously dont have one. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.174.170.18 (talk • contribs) .

[edit] Last warning (spam and personal attacks)

And you need to find another way to promote your business (making personal attacks on an account related to your business doesn't strike me as the most professional way to conduct oneself, but what do I know). Continue, and I'll indefinitely block the Samdodd account and block your IP as needed. OhNoitsJamie Talk 23:13, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Jamie people like you ruin projects like this. Wiki, DMOZ ect ect ect the main downfall are over zelous lifeless fools with nothing better to do then go around making poor judgements in order to upset people and there mess with rankings while promoting there own. You are a virus to projects like this and you should be ashamed of yourself.

I have reported this message you left on Ohnoitsjamie's talk page to administrators. Do not use death threats lightly on Wikipedia.¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 04:43, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding this edit

You have been temporarily blocked from editing because of repeated vandalism to Wikipedia. Please note that page blanking, addition of random text or spam, deliberate misinformation, privacy violations, personal attacks, and other deliberate attempts to disrupt Wikipedia are considered vandalism. If you wish to make useful contributions, you may come back after the block expires. OhNoitsJamie Talk 04:52, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

First off, you've been told many times that this site is spam, and you haven't listened. I can think of at least one Wikipedia policy that says "if a lot of people tell you you're wrong, they probably have a point." Second, it's a conflict of interest because you own the site, as per MY SITE HAS USEFULL INFORMATION ABOUT THE CEDAR CITY AREA.... Finally, you added something to Jamie's page not just once, but again after someone reverted it. Please see WP:NPA; telling someone they have a pathetic life and could do the world a favor by killing themselves is a personal attack, and complete violation of Wikipedia policy. Please do not Wikilawyer on this one (as people are prone to do with accusations of personal attacks) - it was an attack, and it was unacceptable. -Patstuart(talk)(contribs) 04:55, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
