Hello, I'm Orduin. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Mike Cahill (director) without 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; I restored the removed content. 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. Though you did explain why, it is our belief that the section you removed aids the article, please discuss this on the talk page before reverting again. -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 22:21, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Mike Cahill (director). Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. This warning has been added after checking your contribs. You have broken the WP:3RR. Please refrain from additional reverting without discussion. -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 22:25, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

The above warning is because of your taking ownership of the article, and reverting the edits of other users without discussing them on the talk page. Please discuss on the talk page before reverting anything else. -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 22:43, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Lce4892. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Mike Cahill (director), you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

• Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
• Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
• Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 22:40, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Autobiography vs, Encyclopedic biography

This is not his personal autobiography. Why don't we save the control freak stereotype for Michael Bay. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 06:58, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
