I probably came across as a bit harsh, so I'll give some advice. It's generally discouraged to write article about your own company or website. The Alexa ranking a fellow editor found suggests your site hasn't much visitors yet. Starting an article it now, is often seen as an attempt to gain popularity and is best avoided.

If you really think your website has information to offer, consider discussion with fellow editors to add links on appropriate articles to your best pages. Also, please read the Manual of style to learn about formatting a page. If you have any other questions, I'd be happy to answer them.

Just to clarify. . . .

Copied directly from the official Wikipedia Policy page Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not:

Discussion forums, or Everything2 nodes. Please try to stay on the task of creating an encyclopedia.
Directories, directory entries, or a resource for conducting business. For example, an article on a radio station generally shouldn't list upcoming events, current promotions, phone numbers, etc (although mention of major events or promotions may be acceptable). Furthermore, the Talk pages associated with an article are for talking about the article, not for conducting the business of the topic of the article
Advertising. Articles about companies and products are fine if they are written in an objective and unbiased style and their subject is relevant enough to merit an article. External links to commercial organizations are acceptable if they can serve to identify major corporations associated with a topic (see finishing school for an example). Please note Wikipedia does not endorse any businesses and it does not set up affiliate programs.

I hope you do become a valuable contributor to Wikipedia. Soundguy99 07:51, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Sorry; just following the result of discussion on the page. Do feel free to contribute to other articles, though. Mindspillage (spill yours?) 15:17, 12 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sports Store listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Sports Store. Since you had some involvement with the Sports Store redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. Steel1943 (talk) 14:54, 15 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
