[edit]Hello, Camdentaxpayer. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Spaceport Camden, 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:

- 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 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).
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Ahunt (talk) 15:56, 4 July 2019 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm Ahunt. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Spaceport Camden have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the help desk. Thanks. Ahunt (talk) 11:55, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
- Hello Ahunt, I appreciate your concern about my edits to Spaceport Camden. If some aspects of my recent edit were not constructive, I'll attempt to refine them. However, there are numerous inaccuracies and imprecisions in the original article (e.g. there is no connection between the site to the Apollo program; the rocket motor test took place years before Apollo began) that paint a very misleading picture of the site as a possible spaceport. It's true that, as a county taxpayer, I have a very different perspective on the spaceport than the paid PR consultant who wrote the initial article, but everything I post is accurate. Yes, I choose to focus on aspects that the primary author ignores, such as every launch trajectory going over Cumberland Island National Seashore and the contaminated nature of the property, because I believe these are critically important to understanding the project, while the primary author chooses to ignore these topics.Camdentaxpayer (talk) 13:37, 9 August 2019 (UTC)CamdentaxpayerCamdentaxpayer (talk) 13:37, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
- Your user name and your edits show that you have a close relationship with this issue. Your edit history also shows that your edits are highly biased and some have been close to pure vandalism of the article. As per our policies cited above you need to stop trying to edit this article and instead make suggestions for changes on the article talk page, so that neutral editors can assess your requests. It is all spelled out in WP:COI. - Ahunt (talk) 19:00, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
signing comments
[edit]Hi. I just wanted clarify the procedure about signing talk page comments, after noticing your comment on User talk:Oshwah. The easiest way to do this is to put four tildes at the end of your comments. The benefit of doing that, rather than typing your username, is that the four tildes not only add your username, but they also add the date and time of your comments (so we can note when a comment was made in relation to others) and it also links to your user account. Often, when editors like me see a comment from an editor like you that I don't know, I become curious to identify when you registered your account, what your edit count is, etc. The four tildes link to your account so all that can be investigated. We are very much a community and we like to get to know each other. And, as you can see with my signature, you can customize how your signature appears, too.
