Jordan Matthews

You cannot just copy/paste info from another source and post it here.--Yankees10 03:02, 8 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Added content is not from another source on the web. It's directly from Jordans main representative. I personally work for them and have been commissioned to update his wiki using the verbiage that I added. In this case the source is Jordan Matthews himself.
you straight up copied and pasted from Matthews Vanderbilt bio. You can't do that.--Yankees10 03:21, 8 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
The information added was given to be directly by Brenda Matthews, Jordan's mother. Rather than reverting all of the information that was previously missing and needs to be added can you provide a solution if this is not an acceptable method on Wikipedia?

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Lstevenson. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Jordan Matthews, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:10, 8 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the thorough explanation on the rules and guidelines regarding Wikipedia. Since you are clearly more knowledgeable regarding updating Wikipedia what's the easiest and acceptable way to have his page updated? The information I previously added is important information that we would like added. Especially his accomplishments. Lstevenson (talk) 16:00, 8 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

What you need to do is post an edit request on the talk page of the article using the {{request edit}} template. An editor will evaluate your suggestion and add the data to the article if it meets our standards. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 18:47, 8 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
I do believe I found where that was and submitted that request. Hopefully it was done correctly thanks again.
Done correctly in some respects, but you added copyright content and did not cite your sources for most of what you expect to be added. Please see WP:RS for information on sourcing. You might consider visiting Help:Getting started or the Teahouse for information on how things are done on Wikipedia. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:29, 8 April 2018 (UTC) Ahhh ok understood. Thanks Diannaa. To make sure things are done correctly we will likely look to our PR person for further updates. I appreciate your assistance and help.Reply
Please make sure you add a notice to your user page or talk page disclosing your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID). This is required under Wikipedia's terms of use. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:35, 9 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
