- Hi and thanks for your note. You may find that if you look at the article on chess you may be able to help there. Remember this is an encyclopedia, and that people search for information using a quite rudimentary interface. The odds on someone typing in an exact sequence as per your article title are basically non existent. Why not check out Wikipedia:WikiProject Chess for some help - there's lots of Wikipedians there who may be able to give some input to help you contribute more to our encyclopedia. Thanks!

- Also if you created the article as a test page (like you stated on my talk), then why don't you try the Sandbox as that is the appropriate place to make test edits. Cheers! Tiptoety 22:50, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
- I agree with Tiptoety. Use the Sandbox for anything else you need. If you think that your article is necessary, post it again and then under "Discussion", post why it is important.Empezardesdecero123 23:05, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the answers. I read both the Chess meta wiki-project page, and the general FAQ's and I'll sleep on it and finish tomorrowSentriclecub 23:59, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hello
Hi there, I was also disappointed by Graft's response to your comment, I mentioned this to him and I'm sure he won't be so rude to you again. I'm sorry if you found this off-putting, but I assure you that it is not a common experience and is not an accepted way of talking to somebody on Wikipeida. Tim Vickers (talk) 19:26, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Apologies
Hi Sentriclecub,
Please excuse my extremely poor choice of words on Talk:Genetic code. I left a comment there hopefully explaining myself; your comment was made entirely in good faith and was a valuable, constructive comment, and I appreciate that you made it. I hope you'll not be dissuaded from further contributions as a result of my stupidity. Graft | talk 19:34, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Spam Investigation for that London company
Sorry, don't know where you got my name from, but I suggest you take your concerns to WP:AN/I and someone should be able to deal with it there. Regards, Gatoclass (talk) 09:25, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- Please post the spamming related accounts, diffs, all the domains on Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Spam#Health_problems --Hu12 (talk) 14:26, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks to whoever wrote it, but yes, you are correct, I independently also concluded that one of the spamming campaigns was done for the benefit of Reckitt Benckiser, a huge fortune 500 company. Even their obscure toothpaste has its own wikipedia page and someone removed the afd tag immediately when it was challenged. "However, my CSD template was removed as soon as I put it on the page" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Bonjela
I think you guys misunderstand the scope. Its a pyramid. The bottom level is the "legitimate looking health websites" like the four seen here...http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Reckitt_Benckiser&diff=prev&oldid=135087597
The middle level is "web design and online promotion companies" such as alchemyinteractive and webheads (identify and connecting all these are crucial, it was a huge leap that I was able to deduce that they are in-family companies, 100% identical, but they hide this fact), all based out of the same address and london and same telephone number (thanks to google).
The top is the owner of the middle level, who if we could identify this, we could trace fully the whole pyramid. As it is now, we're simply adding one domain at a time, and flagging one wikipedia spammer account at a time. I have heard that WP has some very sophisticated IP tools and what-not (I'm a noob, but still know a lot more than most ppl) and was hoping to fix this whole scheme in like 15 minutes, if the right person got this message.
