Please understand very carefully what WP:BLP, WP:NOT, and WP:ABOUT all actually mean - the re-instated text is like an elongated CV, certainly not an encyclopediac article. Try to see what is in the Rick Ardon or Susannah_Carr articles. JarrahTree 12:49, 19 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Jonese95. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Basil Zempilas, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. 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 COI 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 Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution 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. It appears you are acting in PR capacity on the article, removing sourced content and turning the article from an encyclopedic article into a PR piece Gnangarra 09:43, 21 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
