You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Porscia Yeganeh requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Misplaced Pages:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines.

Speedy deletion nomination of Porscia
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Porscia requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Misplaced Pages takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Misplaced Pages to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Misplaced Pages:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Misplaced Pages:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines.

File permission problem with File:MadBid Logo.gif
Thanks for uploading File:MadBid Logo.gif. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the 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 CC-BY-SA 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 take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Misplaced Pages:File 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 created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Misplaced Pages's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:59, 21 September 2012 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of "Mens Sheds"
A page you created, Mens Sheds, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is obvious advertising or promotional material.
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.

The Sam Loyd Company
Hello, JP22Wiki, and thank you for your contributions!
I wanted to let you know it seems an article you worked on, The Sam Loyd Company, is copied from another Misplaced Pages page, Sam Loyd Company. It's fine to do this as long as you provide the following information in the edit summary:
- a link to the article you copied from
- the date you copied it
You can do this now by editing the page, making any minor edit to the article, and adding the above information into the edit summary.
If you're still not sure how to fix the problem, please leave a message at the help desk. It's possible that I made a mistake, so feel free to remove the tag I placed on the article.
Thanks again for helping build the 💕!Template:Z126 MadmanBot (talk) 12:11, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Stop SPAMMING Photographytalk references
NOW! Or be blocked! Tagremover (talk) 11:28, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
Apologies, this was never my intention. I think the site has a number of notable articles than can be used throughout Misplaced Pages. Any advice on how these can be posted without looking like "spam?" JP22Wiki (talk) 11:51, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
- Sorry for my tone. I was angry. I consider this "reviews" and "12 reasons to ..." site as unscientific and not usable as a source, except claims which Photographytalk copied from other sites like manufacturer infos: But this has to be sourced by the root source.

Blocked
{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Nick-D (talk) 11:04, 10 November 2012 (UTC)
- You've recently created a series of what appear to be ads for medium-sized companies such as State Custodians, 1300 Home Loan, Hamper Emporium and StartHere which have the common features of being written in advertising-like language and being largely referenced to the company's website. As such, I'm pretty sure that you're here to advertise these companies rather than write encyclopedic articles. Nick-D (talk) 11:04, 10 November 2012 (UTC)
I would like to be 100% open with you here. I've edited Misplaced Pages pages and created them for years, under different usernames in the past before using JP22Wiki (mainly due to forgetting passwords and living in different places). I recently made paid edits linked with elance, however I did research this heavily, and didn't believe I was doing anything wrong. This began with a friend recommending it to me. He said he did it a couple of years ago to make a bit of extra cash and pointed me to the following pages saying there was nothing wrong in doing it (Paid Editing). I came to the same conclusion as him that there weren't too many issues surrounding it as long as the articles remained neutral.
To give you a background on my editing, I find proof reading articles incredibly dull. However I love reading about new subjects and creating articles. This is why the majority of the work I do on Misplaced Pages is page creation.
I began with editing a page for Porscia Yeganeh, I thought she was notable with her history in fashion. The article put together was poor and rightfully got deleted. In all honesty I wasn't used to someone telling me what they wanted to write, rather than following normal Misplaced Pages rules. I put this down to a bad experience and stopped paid editing.
From here, I edited/created a number of articles sporadically about articles that I had come across in my personal life. One of these articles has been deleted, which didn't even go to Afd Sam Loyd Company. I ask that you reinstate this or at least send it to Afd as I believe it is notable and wasn't a paid edit.
A couple of months ago I then undertook another paid project for the State Custodians, Hamper Emporium and StartHere. The reason I undertook this project was due to how similar it was to the article I was writing on 1300 Home Loan, so I simply used the same template and created the pages in the same way (I believe this was one of the main problems).
At the same time, I also carried out paid work on elance for the Vincent Walter Wright article and was looking into the Tej Gyan Foundation. So upto this point I had taken on 4 projects totalling 7 pages. However again like any of the pages I create/edit for paid editing, I was also careful to ensure that I felt they were notable. I also then made the mistake of editing a deletion notice based on an elance proposal, and this is where it has stemmed from.
The work with PhotographyTalk that has been mentioned on another page, wasn't a paid edit. I use this site all the time for my love of photography (you'll see that I have made other photography edits in the past). I couldn't believe that it wasn't heavily used in Misplaced Pages, so I began to add the references. This was seen by another editor as spamming, and I was discussing the best way to add these references (for examaple - do I change the content, add the reference to an additional point etc). This conversation can be seen on my talk page.
Overall I accept that I've made a mistake with some of the edits I've made. However indefinitely deleting me for creating 7 articles (most of which I still stand by as being notable or borderline), I believe is a harsh decision. There is no point in me not begin honest with to you at this point, as my account is deleted and as it stands won't be reinstated. I hope you understand my honesty and reconsider this ban so I can work on Misplaced Pages again. JP22Wiki (talk) 13:13, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Sam Loyd Company
Hello JP22Wiki,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Sam Loyd Company for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, Alanscottwalker (talk) 11:24, 10 November 2012 (UTC)
