Welcome!

Hello, Wood1946, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations verified in reliable, reputable print or online sources or in other reliable media. Always provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Again, welcome! Tacyarg (talk) 00:21, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You tagged the images as "own work", although one appeared to be from a newspaper. Did you take these yourself? Tacyarg (talk) 00:22, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, my name is Bill Belk. This is my personal Wikipedia page. These pictures belong to me and do not violate any copyright laws. I have had them for more than 50 years. No, these pictures aren't from newspapers. Please add them back to my page.

Thanks,

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Wood1946. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Bill Belk, 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 article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template), including links or details of reliable sources that support your suggestions;
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 Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
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, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Tacyarg (talk) 00:42, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Everything on my page are facts including my pictures. I'm not trying to promote myself. I'm 78 years old. I'm just trying to add photos so my grandchildren and family will always have something to remember me by. I'm too old to be advertising, publicizing or promoting myself. I retired almost 50 years ago from playing professional football. Wood1946 (talk) 00:48, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
