User talk:Ajsl348
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Ajsl348, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you edited 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.

[edit]
Hello, I'm C.Fred. I noticed that you recently removed content from Carolyn Murphy without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. In particular, articles need to cite independent reliable sources to support them. —C.Fred (talk) 21:19, 9 April 2019 (UTC)
Carolyn Murphy
[edit]Hello Ajsl348. I noticed your message about Carolyn Murphy's bio. While you do have a conflict of interest in this case (in that you know Carolyn Murphy), my understanding is that that does not necessarily prevent you from editing the page. However, I did notice that your edit was a lengthy bio that did not have any sources cited. If you want some info added, please let me know what info it is and if you have a source for it, and I think I can help you with that. I've been getting more experience for the last couple of weeks editing and the Murphy page seems like it might be a good project to improve, as it's quite short at the moment.
Also, I read a lot of this page: Wikipedia:Reliable Sources If you read through that, you might find a lot of helpful info. I know I did. Hope to speak to you soon, thanks, SteamboatPhilly (talk) 17:38, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
