[edit]Hello, I'm My name is not dave. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Alistair Casey, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Managing a conflict of interest
[edit]Hello, Alistaircasey. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:
- avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
- instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
- when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you must 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).
Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies.
Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. My name isnotdave (talk/contribs) 07:11, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
- You must not edit your own article. You must suggest edits on the talk page. My name isnotdave (talk/contribs) 07:12, 15 September 2017 (UTC)

[edit]Please do not add or change content, as you did at Alistair Casey, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. My name isnotdave (talk/contribs) 07:15, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Alistair Casey. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. My name isnotdave (talk/contribs) 07:17, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia. My name isnotdave (talk/contribs) 07:19, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
