Hello, I'm Toddst1. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Nigel Coates (architect), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Toddst1 (talk) 14:43, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
Managing a conflict of interest
[edit] Hello, Acemorgan. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Nigel Coates (architect), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the COI guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
- 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 WP:PAID. Thank you. Toddst1 (talk) 14:45, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did on Nigel Coates (architect). This violates Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Toddst1 (talk) 16:44, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
Thanks Toddst1.
My aim here is to create an accurate and useful article but I am inexperienced as a Wikipedia editor. Currently we are going around in circles, which I don't have time for, with the article becoming increasingly bad as a result, which is certainly not my aim. There are several places where you have removed accurate descriptions or wording and replaced them with inaccurate ones e.g. regarding occupation and the description of NATO. I assume this is not your intention either. Ace Morgan 11:09, 29 October 2019 (UTC)
- Coates is a clearly notable architect and meets our criteria for inclusion in the encyclopedia but per WP:BLP all claims must be sourced. No one denies the need for accuracy but If you do not have time to conform to our policies and guidelines, you may wish to reconsider contributing to this article to which you have a Conflict of Interest - before you are officially asked to refrain from editing it.

Hi Acemorgan and welcome to Wikipedia. Your contributions are welcome however this is an encyclopedia and we do not allow material to be added unless it cited to a reliable source. This is especially true for articles about living or recently deceased persons. Please see WP:BLP. If you have any connection to the subject of the article you must declare that and you are discouraged from editing it. Please see WP:COI. Also adding claims based on personal knowledge or research is prohibited. Please see WP:OR. I am sorry if this comes across as unwelcoming, however these policies and guidelines have been adopted by the community in order to ensure the integrity of the project. As an administrator I am formally advising you that any further breach of these guidelines may result in your being blocked from editing w/o additional warning. If you have questions or concerns please drop me a line on my talk page. Best regards... -Ad Orientem (talk) 04:36, 30 October 2019 (UTC)

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's 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.
Please 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 your talk page, and a timestamp. - Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
