Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

  • Hello. First of all, if you have a personal connection, there is a conflict of interest. The content would have to be released under this site's license, whether or not you own the copyright. This essentially places it in the public domain which I never recommend. Finally, there is no advertising allowed here. I can sympathize having visited Haleiwa (I still have a Matsumoto's license plate frame on my truck), but I'm afraid that the content can't remain. I hope this helps. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 14:58, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hi again. Please don't simply repost this information. It violates copyright laws whether or not you own the copyright and violates this site's rules regarding advertising. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 15:06, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I did respond and no, with all due respect, I will not restore the content. This is not an advertising site, the content is not suitable for inclusion and I would respectfully suggest that you read WP:NOT and WP:ADVERT. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 15:22, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That's fine for a Facebook posting, but please understand that this is neither a social networking site nor a bulletin board. The article space is reserved for content of general worldwide interest. Again, I sympathize, but this is simply not the place to post a notice for a meeting in a small town on Oahu. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 15:42, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Because those are all notable, worldwide organizations. I must warn you; you are right on the verge of being blocked for uncivil behavior. Please review the links I provided and please stop trying to use this site to promote your cause. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 06:49, 22 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
