Thank you!

In addition to hitting you with that template message, I wanted to reach out personally and thank you for your well-written, well-sourced edits to a number of articles on universities. It is very rare that we get a new editor who writes well and cites their work, and it is much appreciated. Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions.

Kind regards, Hillelfrei• talk • 15:30, 28 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Erinschwartz. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page National American University, 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.

All your edits serve to boost National American University and remove critical content. Much of what you've added is unsourced or clearly linked to the NAU. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Guy (help!) 16:04, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at National American University, you may be blocked from editing.

I did laugh at your "warning" on my talk page though. Just a quick word of caution: when administrators come here to warn you of issues with your editing, it's as well to take note. Guy (help!) 17:15, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
