  Hello, I'm Toddst1. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Bobby Lee, 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. See WP:IMDBREF. Toddst1 (talk) 03:56, 15 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Managing a conflict of interest

  Hello, Thats Just Great. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Steve Lee (artist), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI 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, 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 which forms all or part of work 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. Toddst1 (talk) 04:00, 15 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop adding unreferenced or poorly referenced biographical content, especially if controversial, to articles or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Bobby Lee. Content of this nature could be regarded as personal information and is in violation of Wikipedia policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. See WP:IMDBREF.

On re-posting

Hi, Thats Just Great. It's not common practice on Wikipedia to re-post a post somebody has left on your page, on to their own page. Please instead either answer below it on your own page, or answer on the other person's page, but without re-posting. That way we can avoid confusing people as well as bloating up pages. Also, Toddst1 has indicated that he doesn't want your repost on his page, by removing it, at least twice. Then you definitely don't get to keep restoring it. Edit warring to restore your posts on another user's page after they have removed them, is a quite serious kind of edit warring, as well as being rude. Please stop. (Note: please don't re-post this post on to my page.) Bishonen | talk 15:32, 16 September 2018 (UTC).Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Charles Cooper Nott Jr., you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Charles Cooper Nott (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Red Summer into Washington race riot of 1919. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 19:56, 6 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
