Spam page (although admittedly borderline) created by an editor whose name (Exploretalenteditor) is a bit of a giveaway that they are in some way connected to teh website Explore Talent which, coincidentally, is mentioned and linked to prominently in the article. Their deleted contributions include a spam userpage along the same lines. GbT/c 14:26, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep The subject seems notable; the article currently doesn't do a good job of demonstrating notability, but this should be fixable. There were a couple of external links and one short section which could have been viewed as spam, which I have deleted, but the body of the article seems fine in this respect. I don't see the spam userpage supposedly created by User: Exploretalenteditor. Baileypalblue (talk) 18:32, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Willing to edit My fascination with the wikipedia project led to my adding this topic. I do feel that the topic is noteable. As I am a new editor, I am learning the finer points of wikipedia. I am unaware of any type of spam associated with my account or entries. Please specify what elements that are viewed as spam and they will be rewritten. I have spent time researching and developing this article to meet the high standards of Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikipartner (talk • contribs) 19:00, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Hello, Wikipartner, are you the editor formerly known as Exploretalenteditor? I'm glad you are interested in working to make this article better. We were concerned that the references to websites such as exploretalent.com might be advertising, considering they were inserted by an editor with the username of Exploretalenteditor. The questionable content is deleted and those issues are resolved, no need to worry about it. For suggestions on how you might make this article better, see my comment on your talk page.

- Thanks for responding Yes, I am the former user ExploreTalentEditor. I never thought that by registering this editor name that it was not in accordance with Wikipedia username policy.
I am very much interested in contributing to the Wikipedia project. My intention was never to advertise as I understand and agree with the importance of the integrity of Wikipedia. I will review your comment on your talk page. Thank you again for communicating with me. Wikipedia is a wonderful and amazing project but it can be a bit complicated to navigate. I will watch closely the developments on this article. I hope that my contribution will remain and will make every attempt to improve its content based on your feedback. As you can see, as requested, I have abandoned the old username and created one that is acceptable to Wikipedia policy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikipartner (talk • contribs) 19:00, 14 January 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.81.44.188 (talk) [reply]
