If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
- editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
- participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
- linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
- and you must always:
- avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Business' FAQ. For more details about what constitutes a conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Conflict of Interest. Thank you. Ben W Bell talk 13:54, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
County Londonderry
editAs per WP:IMOS and verifiable history the name of the county in Northern Ireland is County Londonderry, not County Derry. While some may refer to it a County Derry there has in fact never been an official county by that name in the history of Ireland. Wikipedia is a neutral encyclopaedia and therefore must use official and verifiable names for places, and the agreed upon name for the county is County Londonderry. So please stop changing this as it could be construed as vandalism while I know it is a good faith edit. Ben W Bell talk 13:59, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.—Emote Talk Page 19:03, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
Free Presbyterian Church
editHi Emote,
You write that my editing of this page was not "constructive." I beg to differ. If we take constructive to mean "adding to the truth" then my alteration of Dr. Paisley to Rev. Paisley is indeed constructive.
He has no right to this title, it being an honorary one. One could just as well refer to his compatriot Van Morrison as "Dr. Morrison" as he too is a holder of an honorary doctorate, from Queen's University, Belfast.
To call Ian Paisley a doctor is both in accurate and an insult to all those who labored long in order to gain a genuine doctorate.
My edits therefore stand.
- Wolfpelt, firstly, I am a FP, but Emote is actually a RP (see his page). Also see the FPC talk page where Emote makes reference to this. Secondly, the fact that I am a member of this church has nothing to do with the fact that I like to keep Wikipedia correct. In fact I don't even have much regard for Paisley at this time, but that has nothing to do with this. Please read the FPC talk page, where you will see the link to the Wikipedia Honorary Degree Page. Van Morrison CHOOSES not to call himself Dr. Morrison whereas Paisley CHOOSES to do so. The doctrate is legal and whether the recipient takes the title is at their own discretion. Whether he deserves it or not is not up to us, and Wikipedia is not the place to discuss it. I am merely here to try and sort out this 27-LONG edit war. Please dicuss the matter on the FPC talk page where we can come to an agreement. A balance between Dr. and Rev. is the best way. Both are correct no matter what your opinion is. Remember even though a user does not violate the 3RR rule, they can still be reported for edit warring, not that it should come to that. Olly150 10:56, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

editYou currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Olly150 22:16, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
FPC:Proposition to resolve edit war debate
editDear Wolfpelt, I have placed a proposition to end the edit war debate on the Free Presbyterian Church Talk Page. Please respond as soon as possible to end this quickly and efficently. Thank you. Olly150 01:06, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you for your response - just waiting on other party Olly150 10:34, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you - now for your side of the agreement - please use the templates for a symbolic end to this debate. Thank youOlly150 17:50, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- Proposition carried out - all instances of Ian Paisley that were originally titled, have been alternated - all instances without a title originally, were left without.Olly150 17:59, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
