August 2016

Hello, I'm Robvanvee. I noticed that you made a change to an article, John Romero, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Deletion discussion about Bongo's Bash

Hello, Buzzpuzzle,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Bongo's Bash should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bongo's Bash .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

Editing while having a conflict of interest

Hello, Buzzpuzzle. 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 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, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
• 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, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Indignant Flamingo (talk) 02:30, 15 February 2023 (UTC)

Editing about Gabrielle Zevin

Hi there. I understand that you really want to make sure that Brenda Romero gets credit for being the creator of a real board game that inspired a fictional video game in Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, a fact that has already been identified and acknowledged. Your history of editing Brenda Romero-related content in the encyclopedia is certainly consistent! But trying to make "controversy" happen in the articles on the author and on the book, well, that's just using Wikipedia to attack someone, isn't it? Please stop doing that.

Additionally, I highly recommend that you disclose any connection you have to Brenda Romero, since there are various TOS and guideline issues involved with editing about yourself or someone to whom you have connections (or with whom you have personal issues). I'd rather not take this to the noticeboards, since that often ends in blocks and other unpleasant things. But if you keep trying to use Wikipedia to advance a personal agenda, that's where we're headed. So, just give this a rethink, please? Thanks. Indignant Flamingo (talk) 17:46, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
