Managing a conflict of interest
editHello, SEAL team rep. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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 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.
Note: this would apply in particular If you have any affiliation with the United States Navy, as your user name implies. Thank you - theWOLFchild 17:59, 5 May 2018 (UTC)

edit Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to United States Navy SEALs, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions.
Note: please don't forget to add an edit summary to each and every edit you make. Thank you - theWOLFchild 18:02, 5 May 2018 (UTC)
Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to United States Naval Special Warfare Command. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. - theWOLFchild 18:02, 5 May 2018 (UTC)
Your username
editWelcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "SEAL team rep", may not comply with our username policy. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art". However, you are permitted to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".
Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people, and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, or website, regardless of your username. Please also read our paid editing policy and our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please request a change of username, by completing this form, choosing a username that complies with our username policy. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 19:22, 5 May 2018 (UTC)
The above message also applies if your name is that of a position. 331dot (talk) 19:22, 5 May 2018 (UTC)

editPlease stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by adding your personal analysis or synthesis into articles, as you did at United States Navy SEALs, you may be blocked from editing. - theWOLFchild 03:04, 6 May 2018 (UTC)
Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to US Navy officer Michael M. Gilday. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. —C.Fred (talk) 02:55, 10 May 2018 (UTC)
I APOLOGIZE, I THOUGHT I WAS ONLY USING OFFICIAL SOUCRES AND NOT BEING DISRUPTIVE. I WILL STOP CONTRIBUTING.
- We do not necessarily want you to stop contributing, we want you to listen to the advice you are being given here, and ask questions if you don't understand something. 331dot (talk) 07:39, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose.
If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
at the bottom of your talk page.
You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 07:54, 10 May 2018 (UTC)
