Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the 
button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put
{{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.Sincerely, Jax 0677 (talk) 06:05, 18 February 2014 (UTC) (Leave me a message)

Hello, I'm 331dot. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Oliver James (psychologist), but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! 331dot (talk) 14:40, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

[edit] Hi Singleton4321! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Oliver James (psychologist) several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.
All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:Oliver James, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Martinevans123 (talk) 15:45, 27 September 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for this advice. Is one or both of you a Wikipedia Editor? I am going to take the trouble to try and understand how wikipedia works as the entries currently are wilfully and maliciously misleading. If I offer a fully referenced alternative, is there a way for it to be considered, or does it have to be put forward by a third party? One outrageous example of the present deliberate smearing of me is the claim that I am not registered at the Bowlby Centre or as a chartered psychologist. The reference for the Bowlby Centre is to therapists there who want to be contacted by clients, it is not a list of who is registered at the Centre. I am listed now as a therapist at the Centre: https://thebowlbycentre.org.uk/locator/ Re the Chartered Psychologist link, it is to the HCPC website, one at which I am not registered. Whoever put this link there will have known perfectly well that I am not registered there. In fact, it is with the UKCP, you can find me on their website https://psychotherapy.my.site.com/DirectoryApi__Directory?autonumber=SD-00000003&site=a0d24000001VW3nAAG
- I remain mystified by how Wikipedia works: how can it permit these wilfully misleading links to encourage the reader to suspect that a practicing clinician is a fraud. I suspect a lawyer would regard this as a serious offence?
- Another example is the account given of my television career. It picks on a few of the many programmes I made, I am not quite sure why it picks those ones. The truth is these are the programmes which I produced, assistant produced or presented, 1982-2003: Under Fives (ITV, 1982), The Man Who Shot John Lennon (ITV, 1988), Men On Violence (ITV, 1988), 2 series of Room 113 for Network 7 (C4, 1987/8), The Last Day (C4, 1990), Wot U Lookin At? (BBC Horizon, 1992), Prisoner 4235 (BBC 40 Minutes, 1992), Rape (BBC 40 Minutes, 1992), Prozac Diary (BBC Late Show, 1995), The Chair (BBC2, 1997), Britain on the Couch (C4 series 1998), Affairs of the Heart (C4 2000), Through The Eyes of the Child (ITV This Morning, 2 series, 2002-3). I can provide links to many of these whole programmes on youtube. So why does the creator of my misleading wikipedia choose to delete all these and replace them with some of my least significant ones? Also, why is there nothing about my journalism? I wrote columns for nearly all the national newspapers. eg I did columns for both the Guardian and Observer, as well as numerous features and opinion pieces (see https://www.theguardian.com/profile/oliverjames), in all about 250 pieces: why were references to these and the columns I did for the Sunday Telegraph, Sunday Express, Independent and Financial Times all deleted? It would not be hard to substantiate these. If you are an editor, can I suggest that you do whatever you do to stop whoever is doing this to my entry and let me offer you an alternative?

- Singleton4321, if you have any source(s) that support the claim that Oliver James is a Chartered Psychologist with the BPS and/or is registered with the Bowlby Centre, you may wish to present it at Talk:Oliver James (psychologist), so that the article might be corrected. Many thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:02, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
Please stop. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Oliver James (psychologist), you may be blocked from editing. R0paire-wiki (talk) 15:48, 27 September 2024 (UTC)

Singleton4321, there is a template at the top of this Talk page that reads "This user is new to Wikipedia." But I see that you welcomed here over 10 years ago, on 18 February 2014. In the past 10 years, I wonder have you yet had the time to read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest? Regards. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:08, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
