Christ's Sanctified Holy Church
[edit]I have not been editing this page or reverting edits. I do not run the bot with which you seem to disagree. I suggest you discuss this with User:QuartzReload who has reverted your edits, or bring up any issue on the talk page. See Help:Introduction to talk pages, Help:Using talk pages and Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines.
With respect to images, see Wikipedia:Images and pages listed in that article including Wikipedia:Uploading images. Help:Contents provides guidance and links to pages were help can be requested. See also Wikipedia:Questions.

- You refer to an old edit that I made reverting an improper edit - and I should have said I have not recently edited that page, the point being there is much more relevant intervening activity. The problem with the edit in November is adequately explained by later edits referred to on User talk:65.190.20.98 as to similar edits, which I repeat here for convenience without some of the template text:
- Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Christ's Sanctified Holy Church. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. .
- Your edit here to Christ's Sanctified Holy Church was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5t-eqJZHs0&feature=youtu.be%7C) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk)
- The edit that I earlier reverted in fact violates the external link policy as explained above with respect to later edits. Again see: Wikipedia:External links, in particular Wikipedia:External links#Linking to user-submitted video sites. My edit is supported by later bot edits and at least one other editor after I made my edit. I see no reason not to stand by it, and furthermore, refer you to the other editor, the bot link pages and the help and other pages I cited to you above. Donner60 (talk) 04:03, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Davcoz, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.
To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.
One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- The plain and simple conflict of interest guide

- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
- Simplified Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}}
before the question. Again, welcome! Stabila711 (talk) 04:09, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
