Draft text as requested

Draft text has been condensed for ease of reading this page

Comment: The creator of this page removed the MfD and blanked the MfD discussion page. I have restored both. Help me keep an eye on this. Thanks. LaMona (talk) 18:40, 10 February 2016 (UTC) Comment: There are zero independent sources containing substantial coverage of the subject. This has been explained each time by previous reviewers. Please pay close attention to the notability guidelines before resubmitting again. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 15:13, 18 November 2014 (UTC) Comment: Concur with previous reviewers. Please improve the article significantly before submitting again, and please read WP:COI, seeing the declaration on your user page.

See WP:42 Fiddle Faddle 12:43, 29 June 2014 (UTC) Comment: none of the sources provide in-depth coverage, all are directory listings, casual mentions, or do not discuss the subject at all. 78.26 (His Wiki's Voice) 16:32, 26 June 2014 (UTC) Comment: The article is very thin, and the citations do not support notability. 3 of the 5 references aren't about the subject at all, but about the founders other company. The NJ citation is simply a list (which is good for proving the info in the article, but not the company's notability).

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2016 election, please review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 22:08, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

Paid Editing

Hello Kcmaher. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a black hat practice.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Kcmaher. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Kcmaher|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, please do not edit further until you answer this message.

Many of your recent edits involve adding links to lawyer.com. Please state that you have no financial or other interest in that business. agtx 21:17, 30 November 2016 (UTC)

• This account is  Technically indistinguishable to Charbok721 who has yet another attempt at writing the article for Lawyer.com. Your purpose here has been to do little outside of promoting that site so in addition to the sockpuppetry block there is the added rationale that you are not here to build an encyclopedia. I also consider Boulderscott123 to be a meatpuppet of this account.
