Ami, Thankyou for your cooperation and help.
 
 
:The comments posted on the village pump '''will not be removed'''. As I said before, that page is periodically archived, but no remarks should be removed from it withough a very valid reason. I have removed the text from this section as it was extremely long and a redundant copy of the comments already posted on the Village Pump. Feel free to restore it.

==Warnings==
Some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article <small><Title Removed></small> may not be sufficiently well-known to merit articles of their own.

== Regarding Your Contributions ==
 
We would certainly welcome your contributions; however, it seems as though your only intention here is to contribute information about ''Heyoka'' magazine. It has already been decided by many other editors that the magazine is not [[WP:N|notable]] enough to warrant an encyclopedia article, and it is in any case not prohibited to continuously recreate the article after it has been deleted. If you belief the article to be notable enough, please nominate it for [[Wikipedia:Undeletion|undeletion]], do not recreate it again or continue to add information about the magazine into articles without first gaining consensus to do so, as such actions are considered [[WP:VAND|vandalism]]. Please understand that [[WP:NOT|Wikipedia is not a vessel for advertising or self-promotion]], it is an encyclopedia. Furthermore, it is strongly discouraged that users write about projects in which they have direct involvement (see [[WP:AUTO]]). Here are also some good links for newcomers:
 
 
'''Welcome!'''
 
Hello, {{PAGENAME}}, and [[Wikipedia:Welcome, newcomers|welcome]] to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|Wikipedian]]! Please [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|sign your name]] on talk pages using four tildes (~&#126;~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out [[Wikipedia:Questions]], ask me on my talk page, or place <code>{&#123;helpme}}</code> on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome!&nbsp;

== Please Do Not Remove Warnings ==
 
Please do not remove warnings from your talk page or replace them with offensive content. Blanking your talk page will not remove the warnings from the page history. If you continue to blank your talk page, you will lose your privilege of editing your talk page. Thanks. <!-- Template:Wr (second level warning) --> [[User:AmiDaniel|AmiDaniel]] ([[User talk:AmiDaniel|Talk]]) 23:45, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
:It's no problem at all--lots of respected users got off to fairly rough starts. In the future could you please sign your posts with four tildes, like so: <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>. That will produce your username and the time, and it makes it a lot easier for others to contact you. Again, I'm always here to help and will gladly provide any assistance you need, including answering questions you may have about policies and the way things work on Wikipedia. Good luck in the future, and I hope you'll soon learn the ropes and will be able to effectively contribute. Happy hunting!

== Removing Remarks ==
 
I generally observe very strict no censorship rules on my talk page, as it serves not only as a way for others to contact me, but also as a log of my previous actions. If, for instance, the process surounding the deletion of <small><Title Removed></small> ever came into question, these messages would come in useful. If you feel it necessary, however, I will remove any mention of your site's web address from my talk page, but I'd prefer to keep the rest of the messages intact. You should be aware that ''all'' of your contributions to Wikipedia will remain on the site in some form, such as in an article's history, unless the history is deleted from the article--this is necessary to fulfill [[GFDL]] requirements. [[User:AmiDaniel|AmiDaniel]] ([[User talk:AmiDaniel|talk]]) 00:30, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 
:As I see that you and your associates are also trying to remove other comments strewn about Wikipedia, I might point out that you do have the [[m:Right to vanish|right to vanish]]. If you choose to exercise it by requesting a username change and moving respective user and user talk pages, I will then archive the contents of your messages to a subpage and blank it, so that I will have the messages for reference but they will not appear in Google's site indexing. Please be aware, however, that by choosing to vanish you will no longer be able to contribute to Wikipedia through this username. [[User:AmiDaniel|AmiDaniel]] ([[User talk:AmiDaniel|talk]]) 01:08, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 
::But an IP address (67.86.180.171) can't "vanish", can it? [[User:Nationalparks|Nationalparks]] 01:17, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 
== Proposed Solution ==
 
My apologies for taking so long to respond--I was offline. I've conversed with a few others about the situation, and most tend to feel that not much can be done. Our goal on Wikipedia is to write an encyclopedia, not to provide a free adserver, and it's truly not the concern of Wikimedia or any of Wikipedia's contributors to preserve the PR of individual who abused it as such. In any case, I feel I may have found a reasonable compromise that is well within the limits of WP's policies and that may help to reduce the prevalency with which search engines direct others to this page, rather than your own website. However, to enact this I will need your cooperation and agreement.
 
First of all, I find it acceptable to remove the title of the article and your name from the warnings, though I will not endorse removing the warnings altogether. The messages from you here I will archive to a subpage and blank, so that I will have the messages available yet they will not appear when Google indexes the site. Secondly, you will have to [[Wikipedia:Changing username|change your username]] either to a dummy name (meaning that you have chosen to excercise your [[m:Right to vanish]]) or to something else, and the involved bureaucrat should then move your user and talk pages to that target. I'll monitor the page closely, but I would appreciate if you would drop a note here once your username has been changed. References on the Village Pump will eventually be archived, though they may still appear when the search engines index the site--absolutely nothing we can do there. The John LeKay article will also have to be preserved as a protected {{tl|deleted page}} as it's simply been recreated too many times to allow it to be unprotected. After all of this has been done, there will still be references to your name on Wikipedia, but the bulk of them--and most especially the references that have concerned you (i.e. vandalism warnings)--will, within a matter of weeks, no longer appear when you search for your site.
 
Please understand that this is ''a lot'' of bending-over-backwards to boost the PR of someone who blatanly attempted to use Wikipedia as an adserver (in fact, most seem to have hinted that I should simply ignore your requests). If, after all of this has been completed, you continue to edit in the same manner, I strongly doubt that anyone will be concerned with what a search engine brought up when you searched for your name. As I said before, it's really not our concern, but I'm going to [[WP:AGF|assume good faith]] here and try to help you as best as I can. If this seems reasonable to you, and you agree to the change of username, etc., then please indicate that either here or on my talk page, and I will go through and begin stripping talk pages of references to your name (within the confines of policy and only from talk pages of users who do not object to this). Thanks. [[User:AmiDaniel|AmiDaniel]] ([[User talk:AmiDaniel|talk]]) 05:25, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
:Okay. The titles have now been removed. Please goto [[Wikipedia:Changing username]] and request that your username be changed to something other than your real name. Once this has been completed, I will finish removing references to your actual name and your publication from this page. [[User:AmiDaniel|AmiDaniel]] ([[User talk:AmiDaniel|talk]]) 06:26, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
 
::I moved this (your former talk page) here, so it is no longer at [[User:Johnlekay|<name removed>]] (although that [[WP:REDIRECT|redirects]] here). [[User:Prodego|<font color="darkgreen">''Prodego''</font>]] <sup>[[User talk:Prodego|<font color="darkgreen">talk</font>]]</sup> 14:10, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
 
Okay, I believe I now have all references to your name and your magazine removed from my talk pages. It will probably take a few weeks before they begin to disappear from searches, but after that I doubt that Wikipedia will be particularly high up the list. Thanks for your patience and compliance.
