Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 20:41, 22 January 2019

Hello, Plemongello. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Misplaced Pages, 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 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 conflict of interest 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 Misplaced Pages'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).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Melcous (talk) 13:47, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

I have again reverted your edits. As you have a clear conflict of interest, you are requested not to edit the articles directly, but to make requests on the talk page that can be reviewed by neutral editors. This is most easily done using the Template:Request edit. You should also provide reliable, independent sources to verify the information you would like changed, otherwise it can not be included.

Why is there conflict of interest? I am just trying to correct wrong information!

There is a conflict of interest because your name is the name of the person you are writing about. And you are not providing any sources for your changes. Melcous (talk) 04:46, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

I understand your confusion now, but there is still no conflict of interest because I am not the person you believe me to be. See I am just a fan of said person and have created my username to reflect that. No different than Elvis screen name or Donald Trump. Do you really think Elvis is editing his own page? Anyway, you clearly are overlooking the fact that there were sources on some paragraphs and I will add them for the ones lacking them. Thank you (talk) 03:41, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

Edit warring

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
