Your recent edits
[edit]Welcome again, but, I'm sorry, I've reverted your changes to Texas A&M School of Education and Human Development. It looks as though you put the text as it appears to the reader into a text editor, edited it there, and then went into the Wikipedia editor and replaced the existing source code with your text. The result was that you lost all formatting and, more importantly, all of the references, which appeared, after your changes, as "[1]", "[2]", and so on but with no actual footnote being produced. Please redo your edits directly to the source code and leave the formatting and references that are there in place. Let me know if this is unclear or you have any questions.

You can compare the version I restored to your version. See the References section in both versions and see how most of the references disappeared. Largoplazo (talk) 19:30, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
June 2022
[edit]Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Texas A&M School of Education and Human Development, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. I've reverted your latest edits to the same article. Since these edits were improper in exactly the manner I'd already explained to you, this is now coming in the form of a warning.

- @Aggie ed I have reverted the above page again, for the same reasons @Largoplazo gives. Please familiarise yourself with the guidance provided in above. SpheralCobra (talk) 18:33, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
Managing a conflict of interest
[edit]Hello, Aggie ed. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Texas A&M School of Education and Human Development, 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 organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
- 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, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. There's also the matter of your edit summary, "We are updating our name, information and history to reflect this and cite sources." This implies that people are sharing an account. This isn't permitted: see WP:NOSHARING. Is this account being shared by two or more people? Largoplazo (talk) 02:33, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
