Welcome!

Hello, Toddstarnes3, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, your edit to Todd Starnes does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Questions page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Below are a few other good links for newcomers:

  Hello, Toddstarnes3. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Todd Starnes, 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, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
  • 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 are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to 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 Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Melcous (talk) 03:59, 3 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

This is Todd Starnes - I AM THE SOURCE. My direct email is [removed, but appears to indicate this is Tood Starnes, though identity has not yet been confirmed]. I have been attempting for years to remedy the issue with my wiki page.

Your options

edit

As the notices above state, wikipedia does not abide by people making legal threats and you will very likely be blocked unless and until you remove them. In terms of the content you believe is inaccurate in the article about you, you have two main options:

In all of this, you need to remember that you although the article is about you, you do not "own" it and cannot ultimately control what is written in it. You are, however, welcome, to point out factual inaccuracies and ask for them to be removed, you just need to do so in an appropriate way, which includes not threatening to sue people - that will get you nowhere here.

Request reason:

This is Todd Starnes. My direct email is (removed)

Decline reason:

You are blocked for making legal threats. If you wish to continue editing here, you must unconditionally withdraw your legal threats. Alternatively, once your legal action is complete, you are welcome to come back and request an unblock. Note that you've also been violating WP:AUTO and will need to explain how you would edit differently, if unblocked. Note that anything less than "I unconditionally withdraw my legal threats and will not make legal threats in the future" or "My legal action is complete" will result in you losing your access to this talk page.

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.
