Hello, I'm Stanley Appleford. I noticed that you recently removed content from Joseph Boyden 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.

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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 your 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.

• You are past 3RR at this point. Do not revert the article again. Instead, discuss your concerns at Talk:Joseph Boyden. That way, other editors can get a clearer sense of your concerns—and you may get a consensus to remove the material. However, the text in question is not a BLP violation, so you do not get an exemption from 3RR—and are subject to being blocked. —C.Fred (talk) 02:52, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Joseph Boyden. As you've been told by multiple people already, you can't remove masses of text like that without discussing it first. Also, I should again point out the three-revert rule, which you've already broken... Thegreatluigi (talk) 02:51, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 36 hours for persistently making disruptive edits and for edit warring on Joseph Boyden. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 22:23, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Jonothon Jacobs. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Joseph Boyden, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI 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 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 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. Toddst1 (talk) 22:25, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
