Welcome!
Hello, Allisoj1, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, like Amac, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.
You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.
Thank you.
There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called
Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the
New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{
helpme}}
on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Eeekster ( talk) 23:48, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Amac, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that they
userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Please do not
attack other editors, as you did at
User talk:Eeekster. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please
stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you.

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to
talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should
sign your posts by typing four
tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button
located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --

I have no inherent objection to there being an article on AMAC. I understand your reasoning. The problem is that you have no reliable sources to show that this group is notable per WP:ORG. All you have, so far, is that they sent you a mailing and that you looked up the contact person for their website. That doesn't meet WP:V. Can you find a news article that discusses AMAC? A book? Again, see WP:V. Also, you can work on the article in your userspace (say, at User:Allisoj1/AMAC while you are searching for sources. If and when you find some, ask me to look at your draft. But as of now, all you have is that "This group sent me junk mail." That's not enough, yet, for an article. NawlinWiki ( talk) 01:52, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
I see I can post on your page or my page and your can post on my page or respond on your page. I didn't know where to look. You should really cut some slack for noobs. Allisoj1 ( talk) 02:42, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
I have a much better understanding of Wikipedia now. It's been a little rough, but I think I'm catching on.
I know admins don't get paid. At least they didn't last I heard. I appreciate what you do. I'm sure you get a lot of crap posted. I can kind of understand what happened, but it was a rude awakening. Allisoj1 ( talk) 03:17, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
Well, the part where you gave me helpful tips on the wiki site interface was welcome. That's why I said thanks.
I admit I was ignorant initially. I wrote what I thought was a good entry that had some issues I didn't anticipate.
I was smacked down as a spammer. I was not.
That's the part I still have a problem with.
The process works way to fast to not just moderate questionable content, but DELETE it, almost immediately.
Sometimes when you live with a system too long, you take for granted things that are really not acceptable, just because you become used to it, maybe even like it.
Maybe wiki needs some new blood.
I'm not saying anything.. I'm just saying.
