Welcome!

Hello, LordoftheGTO, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, visit the Teahouse, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions; however, it appears you may have written a Wikipedia article, or a draft for a Wikipedia article, about yourself. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – please see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Notable people who have edited Wikipedia). If you wish to add to or change an existing article about yourself, you are welcome to propose the changes by visiting the article's talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was the page I created deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss this with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

I have had my biography reviewed by Annabelle Peterson formerly of TRW Missile Systems (Now part of RTX(Raytheon) and Dan Olson formerly of Northrup-Grumman and USAF. There comments included the following suggestions 1) State a Purpose for the Biography/Autobiography (My Intended Purpose during my career was to 1) Make Aircraft More Reliable, and 2) Make Aircraft Safer and less prone to Accidents (21 people from my Hometown of Sheridan WY USA Perished in 1981 when a Beechcraft 1900 Commuter Airliner collided with a Skydiving Aircraft outside of Denver Colorado. This in part was the killing blow to my Fathers Business of Doing Planning for Museums ) (It also illustrates some of the hazards of working as the "Research and Development Cutting Edge of Technology" that attract Terrorists, and Unethical and opportunistic people. ) (It additionally shows a bit about how Aerospace and Medicine are intertwined with Semiconductors, Physics, Mining, ) Another concern was that my Batchelor's of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering from SDSM&T (Now SD Mines) in 1985 with a 3.75 GPA in Major is not more explicitly called out. I am a Trekkie and not everyone appreciates some of this humor as well. I am currently Disabled, and Donating any Earnings from Fundraising to Various Charities (Including Wikipedia/Wikimedia) (and donating some of my Very Modest RTX Pension and my Royalties from Open Systems Media. I have also Written for EETimes, and Have 3 Active LinkedIn Groups covering MixedSignal Electronics / PCB Design, FPGA Design and Programmable Devices, and Avionics Design. I also Own a Group focused on SD Mines and It's Faculty, Students, Alumni and other Interested Parties. I would Like to Request your Help in Getting this Article Massaged into good form.

I'm afraid I can't help you, because you just shouldn't be writing an article about yourself at all. AntiDionysius (talk) 14:27, 7 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
