A page you created, Glenn Rosewall, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how they are important or significant, and thus why they should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for biographies in particular.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. Synchronism (talk) 03:51, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Glenn Rosewall requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

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 article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the article or have a copy emailed to you.

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Glenn Rosewall has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from 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. Synchronism (talk) 06:43, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with Glenn Rosewall. Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion. Thank you. Synchronism (talk) 06:45, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You have been accused of sockpuppetry. Please refer to Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Ansonrosew for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with notes for the suspect before editing the evidence page. Synchronism (talk) 07:16, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. 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. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name 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! --SineBot (talk) 08:37, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on SmarTrader, 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 blatant 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.

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 article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay.

hello - I have recently come across some of the articles you have been working on (BBY Group and Glenn Rosewall. I would note that you have a very significant WP:COI issue in both articles and this has come out in the form of articles with significant issues. I have tagged the two articles for WP:COI, WP:Unreferenced and WP:ADVERT issues. I would suggest you try to address these issues proactively. I would suggest that you first read carefully through Wikipedia:Five pillars and WP:MOS. If you have any questions you should write me back. I would like to help. |► ϋrбanяeneωaℓ • TALK ◄| 01:28, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like you are making some good progress on the BBY article. Keep it up. I made some small adjustments and also tagged the awards section for better referencing. Let me know if you need some help

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, File:Glenn Rosewal lon CNBC Asia.JPG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. PhilKnight (talk) 13:55, 19 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Glenn_Rosewall_CEO_BBY.JPG. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the image (or other media file) agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the GFDL or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the image to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the image has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the image's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Images lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. PhilKnight (talk) 14:17, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, File:BBY Group Company Logo 2.JPG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Thank you for uploading File:Glenn Rosewall CNBC Appearance 12-01-2009.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Thanks for uploading File:BRW East Coles Survey 2008.JPG. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give BBY Group a different title by copying its content and pasting it into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you.

Please do not remove all content from pages without explanation, as you did to Glenn A. Rosewall. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. Synchronism (talk) 05:43, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You have been accused of sockpuppetry. Please refer to Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Ansonrosewfor evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with notes for the suspect before editing the evidence page. Synchronism (talk) Synchronism (talk) 00:14, 9 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry this was not posted earlier.Synchronism (talk) 00:15, 9 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This case is closed, I am sorry to have falsely accused you.

You and the people you know in real life that edit this encyclopedia need to be aware of its policies on how the type of collaborative editing that you have been conducting should be viewed by the community, most importantly:

1. Consensus in many debates and discussions should ideally not be based upon number of votes, but upon policy-related points made by editors.
2. In votes or vote-like discussions, new users may be disregarded or given significantly less weight, especially if there are many of them expressing the same opinion.
3. For the purposes of dispute resolution, the Arbitration Committee has ruled that when there is uncertainty whether a party is one user with sock puppets, or several users acting as meatpuppets, they may be treated as one entity.

You are all apparently good editors; you are skilled at wikisyntax and the pages you have created are about somewhat notable things. My personal advice is to expand your work to the rest of wikipedia and let the pages you created evolve to avoid the appearance of highly subjective editing. This will help lend credibility to your voices during vote like occurrences, should you wish to participate in them.

One more thing: you can have your user page where I accused you deleted, redirected to your talk page, or you can create something better there Just ask someone, or me if you don't already know how. Best wishes, Synchronism (talk) 05:04, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article BBY Ltd, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. LibStar (talk) 08:14, 25 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to emphasize that you should review the conflict of interest guidleline. Drawn Some (talk) 02:24, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:BBY SmarTrader Logo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:42, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Are you an employee of BBY? LibStar (talk) 11:37, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No I'm not. Please Don't Revert My changes without discussing it on the articles talk page. Thank you.

I have discussed it, suggest you edit a wider range of articles see WP:SPA. also your style of editing suggests a strong connection with BBY and Glenn even if you're not an employee. maybe Glenn is directing you to edit? If you continue to try to edit with a conflict of interest you may be blocked. Zip1010 has admitted knowing you and Glenn. LibStar (talk) 11:52, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I can't help but notice that in Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Ansonrosew/Archive, Ansonrosew self-identifies as Anson Rosewall (presumably the son of CEO Glenn Rosewall) and also identifies an employee of BBY as a colleague. Whether or not Ansonrosew is presently an employee of BBY, conflict of interest guidelines suggest he should be very careful when editing either BBY Group or Glenn Rosewall. A clear statement of his COI on the talk pages might be helpful. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 15:59, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not assume ownership of articles such as BBY Ltd. If you aren't willing to allow your contributions to be edited extensively or be redistributed by others, please do not submit them. Thank you. LibStar (talk) 11:55, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
