Welcome!

Hello, Oremandos, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Oregon Mandolin Orchestra, which 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.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

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!

Hello. I have reverted your edits because I felt that they were too promotional in nature, used non-neutral language and contained text that was closely paraphrased from your organization's website.

Your content is not lost; it remains the in page's edit history. Because you have a declared a conflict of interest with this organization, I highly advise that you not edit the article directly. You should instead limit your editing on this topic to suggested additions or changes on the article's talk page, using the {{request edit}} tag to attract the attention of other uninvolved editors. Please see Wikipedia's plain and simple conflict of interest guide for further advice.

Please be aware that Wikipedia demands that its content be sourced from reliable sources that are independent of the topic under discussion. Primary sources like the organization's website are OK for basic facts and figures (eg. names of key persons, number of players, ticket sales, etc.) but cannot be used for any interpretation of those fact. Only the previously published writings of independent writers with no vested interest in the organization will be considered reliable. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 17:49, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
