  Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Australian Emirati Association, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Hangon tag goes on article in addition to, not in place of, the speedy deletion tag.

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this:

  1. You may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization.
  2. Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guideline to avoid editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations.The article in question is Australian Emirati Association. Thank you. TRANSPORTERMAN (TALK) 18:20, 19 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Dear Administrators,

http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Australian_Emirati_Association

This page is for a Not-for-Profit Organization committed to improving the relationship between two countries.. it is most certainly not spam. It is not selling or promoting any products.

Furthermore the page template is based on several other near identical organization wiki pages including:

http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Australian_Industry_Group

http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Lowy_Institute_for_International_Policy

The page is also written in a neutral fashion.

Could the administrators please advise how this page would be best re-written to avoid deletion and keep it line with Wikipedia policies.

thanks

 
Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a few moments to create a new account with a username that represents only you. If your username doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may ask for a review of this username block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|Your reason here}}. Thank you. - Vianello (Talk) 22:06, 19 August 2010 (UTC)Reply
