editHello, I'm SkyWarrior. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Mike McCullough (golfer), but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. SkyWarrior 20:46, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
Please stop adding unreferenced or poorly referenced biographical content, especially if controversial, to articles or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Mike McCullough (golfer). Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Wikipedia policy.

Managing a conflict of interest
editHello, Mmccull9039c. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Mike McCullough (golfer), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. 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). You claim here that Mike is your father. This would constitute a conflict of interest so I recommend you follow what has been stated above. And please provide reliable sources for all edits, especially those to BLPs. Thank you. SkyWarrior 21:11, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
