Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page JT Daly has been reverted.
Your edit here to JT Daly was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2WcOdz96ko) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 01:31, 21 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Your addition to JT Daly has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. The content you added about "The Voodoo Children" here: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=JT_Daly&diff=next&oldid=831528461 was taken directly from https://www.reddit.com/r/listentothis/comments/7u1u5b/the_voodoo_children_tangerines_daffodils_rock_2018/ or possibly some other promotional content. I removed the fluff and kept it. Walter Görlitz (talk) 03:00, 21 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

  There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Walter Görlitz (talk) 19:27, 4 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Stop plagiarizing

edit

The notice above about copyright basically says:

  • Do not copy text from sources. It doesn't matter if you go on to cite them, that's not your text to give us, and that's not our text to publish.

If you ignore this message like you did the last one, it's a safe bet you'll get blocked. Ian.thomson (talk) 19:31, 4 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Sarah061. 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. 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. Based on this comment, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Walter_G%C3%B6rlitz&curid=56183395&diff=834308757&oldid=834296554 , you should consider all of your changes to the JT Daly article. Everything should be referenced. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:56, 5 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
