Blue Virginia citations

I've noticed that when you cite articles from Blue Virginia, you list the author's name as "Feld Lowell." His name is Lowell Feld. BottleOfChocolateMilk (talk) 04:55, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

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

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;
• disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to 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 Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Vagenie1 (talk) 21:54, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

Hi I do not have any relationship with him or COI, my editing as the page showed had to do with NPOV and reliable sources which were not original. ShortlegPenins (talk) 18:46, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
