Welcome to the talk page--Hu12 16:30, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You never got back to me on the discussion page so... I want to know what your problem is with a video search engine going under the freaking video search engine categorie! You claim that this is spam, I claim that that is bull shit! It is a very useful website and who gives a rats ass if it has an out going link. You are not doing anyone here on wikipedia by taking that off, if anything you are pissing off people and depriving them of finding what they are looking for! Wikipedia is suposed to be a free encyclopedia editable by all if they are adding relveant true information. I have done that and to ban me for it is mentally retarted.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nickboyett (talk • contribs) 04:37, 2 July 2007.

External links policy on Advertising and conflicts of interest states You should avoid linking to a website that you own, maintain or represent, and in this case, you are the founder of Vdoogle. Unfortunately your conflict of interest editing involves contributing to Wikipedia in order to promote Vdoogle. Such a conflict is strongly discouraged. Your contributions to wikipedia under Nickboyett and IP's 67.182.4.58 67.182.36.71 67.182.36.111 12.44.170.10 67.181.201.132 67.182.36.151, consist entirely of adding external links to Vdoogle and is considered WP:Spam. Looking through your contributions as a whole, the all seem to be Vdoogle related only. Please do not create articles or continue adding links to your own websites to Wikipedia. It has become apparent that your account and IP's are only being used for spamming inappropriate external links and for self-promotion. Wikipedia is NOT a "repository of links" or a "vehicle for advertising" and persistent spammers will have their websites blacklisted. Any further spamming may result in your account and/or your IP address being blocked from editing Wikipedia. Please see the welcome page and Wikipedia:Civility. Avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines. You're here to improve Wikipedia -- not just to promote Vdoogle right? --Hu12 06:07, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I am here to help improve wikipedia and not to just promote vdoogle.com, I only added vdoogle and nothing else cause thats all i know about. I could go around adding other stuff but im not an expert on anything else, but I am an expert on Vdoogle. I use alot of different computers, so im bound to have several IP adresses, I dont always take the time to log into my account. Wikipedia might not be a directory of links, but i do believe that it is appropriate to have one if it is indeed relevant— Nickboyett (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

I understand what your saying, However WP:EL#Advertising_and_conflicts_of_interest states clearly Due to the rising profile of Wikipedia and the amount of extra traffic it can bring a site, there is a great temptation to use Wikipedia to advertise or promote sites. This includes both commercial and non-commercial sites. You should avoid linking to a website that you own, maintain or represent, even if the guidelines otherwise imply that it should be linked. furthermore and Specificaly, Due to issues of maintaining neutrality and avoiding promotional editing, Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines strongly advise that editors do not directly edit articles on topics where they have a close personal or business connection. Hope that helps clears up the policy issues. Any further discussion should be directed to the WikiProject Spam Case.--Hu12 20:02, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for participating in my RfA. It was successful, and I am now, may God have mercy on us all, an administrator. Look at all the new buttons! I had heard about 'protect,' 'block user,' and 'delete,' but no one told me about 'kill,' 'eject,' and 'purée.' I appreciate the trust the community has in me, and I'll try hard not to delete the main page or block Jimbo. -FisherQueen (Talk) 18:29, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
