Hi there. I notice that this account, along with several others, has created a user page whose sole function is to advertise a textbook-selling service. While in many respects Wikinews is more lenient about content than Wikipedia, blatant advertising is still not allowed. If you are related to these other accounts, please note that the use of sock puppets (multiple accounts) or meat puppets (recruiting colleagues to create accounts) to circumvent policy is not allowed. If, on the other hand, there is an announcement somewhere suggesting that you make these accounts and post the advertising, we would appreciate it if you either took steps to correct this, or let us know where the announcement is so that we may do the same. Thank you, Confusing Manifestation (Say hi!|Stalk me!) 00:55, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
