Hi Cassmus. Do you happen to knw where you got this information that you added to the article way back when? [1] Not the Plot, but the 20,000 figure. We're trying to source it but don't know where to. I briefly looked at the Really Useful site (perhaps not in the right place), and couldn't find it. If you know of any place to verify the 20,000 figure, please let me or us know. Thanks! Softlavender (talk) 14:56, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
Never mind -- found it! Ignore the above. Softlavender (talk) 15:03, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for August 4
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited American Theatre Critics Association, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Broadway. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Better source request for File:Decameron1.jpg
[edit]
Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:
You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 08:38, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
[edit]
Hello, Cassmus. 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 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, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest 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 please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted.
It appears at a glance that many, or most, of your edits have cited Russell T. Warne. If you are this person (or work with this person) please use caution when adding WP:SELFCITEs, and consider proposing changes on the article's talk pages. Please carefully review the above links. If you would like additional input on editing with a conflict of interest, you may find Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard helpful. Thank you. Grayfell (talk) 03:55, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
You have misunderstood the conflict of interest policy. It is explicitly permitted to cite one's self on Wikipedia.[1] If I were editing a page about me or a close associate, then I would be in violation of the COI policy. But I do not do that because it would be grossly unethical. --Cassmus (talk) 18:22, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
- I did not say that you can never cite yourself, I said you should use caution. Per WP:COI:
When in doubt, defer to the community's opinion: propose the edit on the article's talk page and allow others to review it. However, adding numerous references to work published by yourself and none by other researchers is considered to be a form of spamming.
You are allowed to cite yourself, but you are not impartial in determining the appropriate weight for your citations. Use caution, review these guidelines, and consider proposing changes on talk pages. If you are going to edit with a conflict of interest, you should also clearly declare your conflict of interest, per WP:DISCLOSE. Grayfell (talk) 22:48, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
