Aylestone School

Hi, AylestoneTechie. I've seen that you undid my edit to the Aylestone School. Our Manual of Style states that we should not refer to individuals with these sort of prenominal titles – therefore, the correct usage in the article's infobox would indeed be simply "Simon Robertson". On a side note, your edit summary said my edit was "unauthorised". Edits can't be unauthorised per se; the ownership of content policy outlines this. Please do let me know if you want me to clarify anything further. MIDI (talk) 20:25, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Also, your username implies you're involved with the school. We have a guide for users who have a conflict of interest – please do read WP:COIE. Given this edit, which may be seen to be removal of negative content (albeit unreferenced), it may be best for you to suggest edits to the page by writing a message on Talk:Aylestone School, rather than making them yourself. Thanks, MIDI (talk) 20:32, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mr Midi.....I have been instructed but the Executive Head Teacher to not be concerned over this edit. I would like it noted that an employee of the federation of schools, who is employed to control the public appearance of the schools digital status is hardly a 'conflict of interest'.

Good afternoon AylestoneTechie. Unfortunately, someone who is paid to control the public appearance of the school's digital status is precisely what a conflict of interest is, because it places the paid editor in a conflict between their employer's goals and Wikipedia's goals; the goal here is to further Wikipedia, not the school. I do hope you read the above linked policies and guidelines; they explain everything in detail. I'm here to help, and keen to help you with the article – so please do ask if and when you have questions. I have written a list of a few things I think it would be good to include in the article (you'll find them on the article's talk page). It would be great if you could help.

I do find it remarkable that the goals of wikipedia would be in conflict with the goals of the school. But if that's wikipedia purpose then so be it. AylestoneTechie (talk) 12:34, 5 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Good evening, AylestoneTechie. Per our discussion above (and the reason I first left you a message here), please don't continue to re-add "Mr" into the article; it does not follow our style guide. I refer to two edits ([1] and [2]) which you made after we spoke about this. Thanks, and have a happy new year. MIDI (talk) 19:00, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
