Hello, I'm Hummerrocket. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Brooke Medicine Eagle seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Hummerrocket (talk) 19:23, 31 December 2018 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Brooke Medicine Eagle. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. Hummerrocket (talk) 19:28, 31 December 2018 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Brooke Medicine Eagle‎ shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello StarDaughter, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Brooke Medicine Eagle‎ have been removed, as they appear to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues here.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Doug Weller talk 19:33, 31 December 2018 (UTC)

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for abuse of editing privileges. 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 ~~~~}}.  -- Ed (Edgar181) 20:18, 31 December 2018 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Brooke Medicine Eagle, you may be blocked from editing. Thank you. Doug Weller talk 21:28, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

Hi

Could you pleas copy paste your post to my talk page to the article talk page. It's late for me and I'm busy tomorrow but I'll try to respond in the afternoon, but only there as it's the correct place to raise issues about the article. Given your earlier experience I hope you understand the need to get WP:CONSENSUS for controversial edits. Thanks. Doug Weller talk 22:10, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

I was too busy today but in any case you still need to copy what you wrote on my talk page to the article's talk page. To notify other editors who have edited recently (look at the history to find out who), you ping them, eg {{ping|Doug Weller}}/ Make sure you use preview to check it's correct as you can't fix a ping, you have to make a new signed post. You might wish to read WP:COMMONNAME = we have a number of articles where we don't use the subject's birth or "official" name. Doug Weller talk 19:26, 15 March 2019 (UTC)

March 2019

Hello StarDaughter. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to Black hat SEO.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:StarDaughter. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=StarDaughter|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. Yunshui ^雲_水 22:16, 15 March 2019 (UTC)

Blocked

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for violating Wikipedia's Terms of Use by engaging in undisclosed paid editing on behalf of your client.

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 ~~~~}}.  Yunshui ^雲_水 22:28, 15 March 2019 (UTC)

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Note to reviewing admin In OTRS ticket #2019022510010091 StarDaughter identifies their professional relationship with the subject of the article Brooke Medicine Eagle, as well as their real name (which can be used in LinkedIn and other online sources to confirm that they are an employee of the article subject). StarDaughter has openly denied this on-wiki in several places, apparently to conceal the paid relationship in direct contravention of Wikipedia's Terms of Use and the paid editing policy.

Blocked_Unfair_Exclusive System

I am new to Wikipedia and I don't think it is correct for me to be block indefinitely as I really don't know what I'm doing, and as I'm learning and making lots of mistakes. I think the system of Wikipedia is not user friendly and it is exclusive to those who seem to be "Wikipedians". I am not a paid Wikipedian, as many users are. I think if someone is new to Wikipedia there should be a tutor that guides the new user. Sending a message that has links is great, however, one might not be able to learn it all with out some guidance. There does not seem to be a fair system, Wikipedia seems extremely unfair to new users. I've learned there are many many paid Wikipedians of all sorts, and are they blocked???? If a user personally knows the person's page they are trying to edit, how is that wrong??? As I'm sure the folks editing negative false information possibly know the person of the page they are editing too. I think there should be a mentoring program for new users.

To the person that has blocked me: As I learn about all the rules and guidelines of Wikipedia, I'm seeing the corruption of this system and by blocking me instead of mentoring me, you have chosen to be exclusive instead of inclusive. I don't think there should be a "rule" about knowing or not knowing the person's page you are editing. And I'm not a paid Wikipedian, like so many others. I think you might just be "doing your job" as a Wikiepdian, however you are incorrect in your accusation. I am here to correct a page that has incorrect information. I would think that might be in your interest, since you are the Wikipedian who corrects what is incorrect!? And so it is.

There is a user adoption program if you are interested- but this is a volunteer project, and as such it isn't possible to have thousands of people sitting at their computers waiting for new users to sign up so they can be guided. Further, figuring certain things out yourself is ultimately better for each user and the project. 331dot (talk) 19:02, 16 March 2019 (UTC)

What is your association with Brooke Medicine Eagle? 331dot (talk) 19:04, 16 March 2019 (UTC)

StarDaughter, if you'd rather not discuss this publicly, you can use UTRS, an unblock queue that uses email. Anything you say at UTRS will be kept private and not disclosed here. But I do suggest that you disclose any potential conflict of interest you have. Once you do that, we can try to help you navigate Wikipedia's policies and get unblocked.
