Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Rev Clive john Pillay. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page African Methodist Episcopal Church, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest 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 conflict of interest 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. OhKayeSierra (talk) 09:11, 22 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm C.Fred. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to African Methodist Episcopal Church have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. You cannot turn the notable clergy section into a miniature CV for yourself.C.Fred (talk) 13:44, 25 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at African Methodist Episcopal Church. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 03:07, 26 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at African Methodist Episcopal Church, you may be blocked from editing. Wikipedia is not a directory of clergy. Neither you nor Joubert is a notable person, so you should not be in the list of notable clergy. C.Fred (talk) 17:59, 27 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours for blatant and persistent self-promotion. 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 ~~~~}}.  —C.Fred (talk) 13:22, 28 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
