Hello, I'm John from Idegon. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Strake Jesuit College Preparatory seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. John from Idegon (talk) 00:05, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Strake Jesuit College Preparatory, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. John from Idegon (talk) 00:06, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Houston, you may be blocked from editing.
Your edits have been automatically marked as vandalism and have been automatically reverted. The following is the log entry regarding this vandalism: Houston was changed by Robert condron (u) (t) ANN scored at 0.857059 on 2017-10-25T00:10:13+00:00 .

Thank you. ClueBot NG (talk) 00:10, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Lazarillo de Tormes. John from Idegon (talk) 00:26, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

Advertising a book?

You have added the book Maier, Maximillian C. “Picaresque Comedy and Its Discontents.” University of Washington, Department of Comparative Literature, 2012. to several articles. Could you please explain? Ifnord (talk) 16:21, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

Ifnord, it's a paper, not a book. No matter the user's motivation (which I too question), it's inappropriate content. John from Idegon (talk) 17:02, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

Advertising a Book

How is it advertising a book if what I cited is neither a book, nor for sale? Robert condron (talk) 16:33, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

The paper you've added in multiple places was written by one Maximilian C. Maier, who, not coincidentally at all, was also the subject of all your other reverted edits. So you want to tell us again how you are not promoting anything? Please tell us what your relationship with Mr. Maier is, keeping in mind the following.

"Picaresque Comedy and Its Discontents" by Maximilian C. Maier

A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. University of Washington 2012.

If this is published it might be appropriate to add it to a bibliography.

Rwood128, do you think mention of the aforementioned dissertation on the 5th most read website in the entire world would be more likely to lessen or strengthen the odds of publication? John from Idegon (talk) 18:01, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

This was just to clearly identify the item and offer advice to Robert condron. I wasn't disagreeing with your comments, suspicion or edits.Rwood128 (talk) 20:15, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Robert condron. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

• avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
• instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
• when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
• exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

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

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies.

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. John from Idegon (talk) 17:16, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
