Hello, and
welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, Gemini report, may not meet Wikipedia's
username policy because it sounds like a company name. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may file for a
change of username, or you may simply create a new account and use that for editing. Thank you. --

Please do not remove
speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with
Gemini report. Please use the {{
hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion, and make your case on the page's
talk page. Thank you.

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as
Steve May: Heading in the Wrong Direction, to Wikipedia as doing so is not in accordance with our
policies. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read
Wikipedia:Your first article; you might also consider using the
Article Wizard. If you would like to experiment, please use the
sandbox. Thank you.

Speedy deletion nomination of Steve May: Heading in the Wrong Direction
Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Steve May: Heading in the Wrong Direction, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.
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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), 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 use talk pages such as
Talk:Steve May for general discussion of the topic. They are for discussion related to improving the article. They are
not to be used as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting
our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See
here for more information. Thank you.

Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below).
A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive, or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account.You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
- Adding
{{ unblock-un|your new username here}}on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page. - At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
- Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.
- Adding
{{
unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read our
guide to appealing blocks first. --
