COI concerns edit

 

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors,
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
    and you must always:
  4. avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

For more details, please read the Conflict of Interest guideline. Thank you. RJASE1 Talk 02:53, 16 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

No personal attacks. edit

Re [1]

 

Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks will lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. -- Jeandré, 2007-04-26t12:55z

Conflict of ineterest, citing sources. edit

Please stop editing the article as per conflict on interest, unless the edits are to

  1. remove unsourced information
  2. remove obvious vandalism, or to
  3. "correct mistaken or out-of-date facts about yourself, such as marital status, current employer, place of birth, and so on. However, be prepared that if the fact has different interpretations, others will edit it." - Wikipedia:Autobiography.

For the latter please include reliable sources (see WP:CITE#HOW how to). Any information not referenced in-text with reliable sources can be removed by any editor. -- Jeandré, 2007-04-26t12:55z

Identity edit

Can you please e-mail info-en@wikimedia.org to confirm your identity and to discuss the article we hold on you. I've blocked this account as a precaution against identity theft, and as a courtesy, I've blanked the article and protected it against further editing. Once we can confirm you are Vincent Bethell, the account will be unblocked. Thanks. Nick 10:31, 5 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
