Welcome to Wikipedia. If you are affiliated with 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, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
  3. 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. MER-C 10:05, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

You have been adding another online copy of the federalist papers to all Wikipedia articles. I checked some, and a) all of them are available and linked on wikisource, b) most of them were already linked in a reference on a government location, and in some cases, several were already linked in the external links sections. I would really like you to a) look at WP:NOT#LINK; we are not a linkfarm, b) WP:EL; telling which external links are suitable and which are not or superfluous, and c) WP:SPAM; discussing promoting one organisation.

I have reverted all of your edits. --Dirk Beetstra T C 09:54, 23 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Everson v. Board of Education. 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 web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site 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 article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. EdBever (talk) 19:49, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The message from Dirk Beetstra, above, still stands. For example, see wikisource:Everson v. Board of Education. EdBever (talk) 19:50, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
