Unbiased Editting
January 2018
editHello, I'm QEDK. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on James F. Jones (educator), but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. If you're the person at OTRS #2017123110004786, please refrain from making these edits immediately, and read on our conflict of interest policy. QEDK (桜 ❄ 伴) 20:11, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
editHello, Unbiased Editting. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article James F. Jones (educator), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. 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. Thank you. — Jeff G. ツ 10:08, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

editPlease do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to James F. Jones (educator), without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. — Jeff G. ツ 10:14, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
James F. Jones (educator)
editHello, I wanted to speak with you about your additions to James F. Jones (educator). The information about his education history, etc., is valuable, but it is really important to include proper citations for claims here, especially about people. Phrases like "school records" are hardly more than hearsay (and don't belong in the body of the text - please see my recent edits for the way they should be formatted, in order to appear as footnotes/citations). Surely it should be possible to dig up some proof that he attended/graduated the institutions? If you could add this, it would greatly improve the piece. As it is, your changes are likely to be removed by another editor, for lack of giving proper proof. If I can help with anything, please let me know. Thank you!
