Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, but at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Zorro Productions, Inc., did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted (undone) by an automated computer program called ClueBot NG.
- Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Note that human editors do monitor recent changes to Wikipedia articles, and administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism.
- ClueBot NG makes very few mistakes, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made should not have been considered as unconstructive, please read about it, report it here, remove this warning from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
- If you need help, please see our help pages, and if you can't find what you are looking for there, please feel free to place "
{{helpme}}" on your talk page and someone will drop by to help. - The following is the log entry regarding this warning: Zorro Productions, Inc. was changed by DexFB (u) (t) ANN scored at 0.925315 on 2011-12-29T21:40:42+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot NG (talk) 21:40, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
It looks to have been deleted because there were no references to back it up. Wikipedia requires that anything placed in an article be backed up by reliable references. Wikipedia doesn't accept it's own pages as being a reliable reference either. You;ll need reliable sources first.

Hello DexFB. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following the reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. DreamGuy (talk) 01:37, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
In case the above comment and discussions elsewhere are not clear enough for you, as you admit that you represent Zorro Productions, you have a major COI on the topic. Wikipedia is not here to provide free advertising, or for you to write press release material or to slant the article to present the conclusions you want it to say. Your main goal here seem to be to slant the article. That's not what Wikipedia is for. I will have to insist that you not edit the articles themselves and limit yourself to making comments on the talk pages only. DreamGuy (talk) 22:54, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
