Hey Joseph2302,
Hopefully I'm leaving you this message correctly. I'm fairly new to Wikipedia.
You recently nominated a page I wrote on Work Truck Solutions for speedy deletion (A7 and G11).
Looking back at the page I can see how you would see it as promotional, although I did my best to include purely factual information and avoid subjective opinions. As for G11, it seems to me that the page's subject was notable. The page included a number of references to publications discussing the company and had more information than many other existing pages I've read.
Do you have any recommendations to help me insure future pages are considered notable and not promotional?
If I wanted to get another page created on the same topic (Work Truck Solutions) do you have any suggestions? Should I go back and edit the content? Start from scratch? Request an article be written by someone else? Do you think that the topic is notable enough?
Thanks for your help and all your work making Wikipedia a great resource. Paulabaulabingbong (talk) 22:59, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

Can you explain why you consider the proposed addition on the talk page of David M. Cote by User:FacultiesIntact to be spam? They asked me on my talk page to look into the proposed additions and as I noted in response, while I don't think the addition to TRW is necessary, the additions to the other two section give more detailed and useful information and improve the section. Why would that be spam? SilverserenC 00:31, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

Hi Jospeh, with regard to the VRA ground being a first class cricket ground with a tree in it, I'm not sure which of these two facts you're contesting. Here's a picture of Lance Klusner fielding under the tree during the 1999 World Cup: http://im.rediff.com/cricket/2004/aug/19amstelveen.jpg . Here's a list of First Class matches played at VRA: http://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Grounds/20/1350_f.html. According to wikipedia's verifiability policy inline citations are only required for material which is challenged or likely to be challenged. I don't think this information is likely to be challenged by anyone in their right mind, unless of course you are currently challenging it. So can we switch it back now or are we going to leave a demonstrable falsehood up for no good reason?

Whack! You've been whacked with a wet trout. for running a DYK on City Oval with an incorrect hook. |

On 9 February 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Matt Hobden, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

I think that this page should stay just the way it is.. because otherwise people who try to collect to complete discography of the band get confused. Information on this site isn't quite accurate lately. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Grindnom (talk • contribs) 22:25, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

Hi Joseph, you kindly helped me a few months back when I needed to make some changes to my employer's page - Eros International.
We now require a few more updates to be made. I know as an employee it's not recommended that I make these changes myself or without prior discussion with the community so I have left my required changes on the talk page of the company (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Eros_International).
I was hoping someone would come back and confirm these changes are ok to make, or make the changes themselves (whichever is the preferred method) but I haven't heard back as yet. Would you be able to assist me again - or let me know where I can go to request my comments to be reviewed?
Many thanks, Vanisha Dhimer (talk) 13:05, 17 February 2016 (UTC)
I was not aware , that I could not remove the tag. Could you please tell me what specific content warranted to be tagged as 'promotional,"I was still developing the page, Thank you.

I really like your page. It is total awesomeness! Ilovebeaniebabies8804! (talk) 17:31, 18 February 2016 (UTC) |
Hello Joseph2302. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Cologne patricians, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: This is clearly more than what is in Overstolz - did you tag the right page? Thank you. SmartSE (talk) 23:29, 23 February 2016 (UTC)
An article that you have been involved in editing—Asian Test Championship —has been proposed for merging with another article. If you are interested, please participate in the merger discussion. Thank you. LionsRule125 (talk) 02:25, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited James Louw, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page First-class. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thank you very much for reviewing my WP:DYK nominaton Warwickslade Cutting Railway. In hinesight, I understand the need for QPQ. Unfortunately, at present I cannot review another article with the requiered thoroughness due to other committments. I am not sure, whether exemptions are possible, or if we should wait until I have reviewed another nomination. --NearEMPTiness (talk) 12:02, 27 February 2016 (UTC)
Hi, I came across your review of this DYK hook while building prep sets. The green approval tick should only be used at the end of your review, when you approve the nomination. Otherwise, it looks like the nomination is approved while you're still in the middle of it. If you want to insert check marks, perhaps you could use this: (written this way: ((y))).
