Welcome!

Hello, Mattvinson, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Daytona International Speedway, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date.

Thanks for the information. I'm not exactly sure how to respond here because I'm still new to the Wiki system and editing. The only reason I'm making these slight changes is from my understand of your system, I need to make 10 updates before I'm granted certain access. The main reason for even creating this account is to make sure our track's information is up-to-date, especially when it comes to logos and dates. In particular for the Daytona International Speedway page and all of our events (Rolex 24 Hours At DAYTONA, and DAYTONA 500 being the two largest). If I'm able to update that information, it would be much appreciated. I wouldn't consider make sure the information and logos are current a "conflict of interest". Having out-of-date info may lead our facility's fans to misinformation.

As to the quote I tried to remove from 24 Hours of Daytona, "Motor Sport reported: "For their first 24-hour race the basic organization was good, but the various officials in many cases were out of touch, childish and lacked the professional touch which one now finds at Watkins Glen." I don't understand how that is relevant to the event's history and is one person's opinion, not a fact about the race. It also comes of as somewhat slander for the event itself. If that quote must remain, sobeit. The logo for that event is not current and I'm trying to make enough small edits to have access to upload the new event logo.

Thanks!
