[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages, as you did to Dragonfly Forest. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. v/r - TP 14:00, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Dragonfly Forest, 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, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
- editing or creating 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; and
- linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. v/r - TP 14:01, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
If you continue to post advertising material, I will have to report you and you may be blocked. If you are affiliated with the camp, you may have a conflict of interest preventing you from writing with a neutral tone. If you have suggestions for the article, I will be happy to look at them and possibly add them if they are not advertising in nature and supported by reliable sources.--v/r - TP 14:27, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
- Hello! Our conflict of interest policy is for just this purpose. The problem is that because you are so connected to Dragonfly Forest that your ability to remain neutral is disputed. I'd be happy to expand the article for you. However, Dragonfly.com cannot be a source. Our reliable sources policy requires that sources be independent and secondary of the subject. Dragonfly.com is a primary source and is not suitable as a resource for most kinds of information. If you have independent resources such as news articles, magazine or newspaper articles, interviews on major networks, books, research papers, or any other sort of information resource that is published and goes through an editorial process, I'd be happy to help integrate the information into the article. Please keep in mind though that Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate source of information. All information must be neutral and encyclopedic. Also, there is a welcome message at the top of this page with great information on how Wikipedia works. Also, you can create a page at User:Fweiner/Dragonfly Forest if you want to draft a article and then have it reviewed later to be moved into the Dragonfly Forest article. Infact, to help you get started, I can move a copy of the existing article there if you'd like that to get started with. Hope this helps. Feel free to leave more questions on my talk page.--v/r - TP 15:54, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
