Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Odell Brewing Company has been reverted.
Your edit here to Odell Brewing Company was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.facebook.com/OdellBrewingCo) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 18:49, 19 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

I think I made all necessary changes to alleviate any issues with the page. All statements have been supported with inline citations, and all information is factual and unbiased. Please let me know what other issues need to be resolved.

Well you state on your user page that you have a conflict of interest to the brewery. More sources should be referenced by 3rd party sources, not your own website, especially in the philanthropy section. "While payback is considered on all investments made, the company and its founders place a higher value on what they're accomplishing for the environment" for example is clearly bias, and linked to your own website.

I do work for the brewery and have been given the task of editing and updating our wikipedia page. I am trying to keep everything as unbiased as possible. I will correct the philanthropy section.

Also note Wikipedia:CORPNAME, as your username will probably be blocked. Make a new, non-biased username. CTF83! 22:10, 21 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

I just edited both the philanthropy and sustainability sections, and I am in the process of creating a new user name. It will be tmarcello8483.

Sounds good. I can assist you with fixing the article if you wish. CTF83! 22:22, 21 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
