editHello, I'm Stanleytux. I noticed that you recently removed content from Chibuike Amaechi without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

I suspected this from your username, but since you've self-disclosed...
editHello, Excellence Owhor. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Frank Owhor, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:
- avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
- instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
- when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia'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).
Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies.
Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 14:41, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
- One additional note about the styling of the Bachelor of Laws degree. This is from the University of Lagos Faculty of Law's website: "The Faculty of Law was established in 1962. It is one of the foundation teaching units of the University of Lagos. Teaching in the Faculty started in October, 1962 with an academic staff of five persons (two Nigerians and three Englishmen); twenty-six pioneer full-time students who started a three-year LL.B. (Bachelor of Laws) Degree Programme. A five-year Part-Time LL.B. Degree (Bachelor of Laws) Programme started in January, 1963, with thirty students, although the part-time programme has been scrapped now."[1] They do use the periods in the abbreviation. —C.Fred (talk) 14:45, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
- Further, there's no need for a comma after the name of the University of Lagos in the infobox, since it's the only school listed. —C.Fred (talk) 17:00, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
