UNBLOCK: I've thorougly read the conflict of interest page. Because I'm not 100% sure, are you referring to the section on Citing Oneself? The rules say," Citing oneself
Editing in an area in which you have professional or academic expertise is not, in itself, a conflict of interest. Using material you yourself have written or published is allowed within reason, but only if it is notable and conforms to the content policies. Excessive self-citation is strongly discouraged. When in doubt, defer to the community's opinion.
There was nothing excessive about my post. For each statement I can provide an outside source to give references to those comments. Others have posted about Positive Magazine and it has been deleted. Although, if you read, Positive Thinking Magazine's Wiki, Good Magazine's Wiki, Vogue Magazine Wiki and so on, there's information posted that only the publisher would know, and yet they appear.
I'm not fully understanding the conflict in context with what currently occurs on wikipedia.
If there is someone reading this please feel welcomed to email me at tlove@enjoypositive.com.
- No, the part you need to read is under "Financial", and "Self promotion." I don't see that Positive Magazine has ever been written about except by you, though you first tried to post the article over a year ago. Let's be clear: you posting an article on a subject related to the company you work for is not going to be permitted. You can only be unblocked if you have other unrelated editing you are interested in, but it sounds like you don't. Mangojuicetalk 06:44, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Notability of Positive magazine[edit]
A tag has been placed on Positive magazine requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Accounting4Taste:talk 04:31, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
