  Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Milkweed Editions, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 20:05, 2 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop. Continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Daniel Slager, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, may be considered disruptive editing. Further edits of this type may result in your account being blocked from editing. Theroadislong (talk) 20:07, 2 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, Satellitewalls, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia. Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who use multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please remember to disclose these connections. Theroadislong (talk) 20:08, 2 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

I'm confused. I need to edit these two pages. There are inaccuracies that I need to correct, and I need to add new information. Why can I not do that?

  This is your last warning. You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Milkweed Editions. Katieh5584 (talk) 20:32, 2 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, Satellitewalls. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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.
  • Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
  • 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.

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. Drm310 (talk) 19:40, 7 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
