Choose12, you are invited to the Teahouse!
[edit]Hi Choose12! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. Come join other new editors at the Teahouse! The Teahouse is a space where new editors can get help from other new editors. These editors have also just begun editing Wikipedia; they may have had similar experiences as you. Come share your experiences, ask questions, and get advice from your peers. I hope to see you there! Rosiestep (I'm a Teahouse host) This message was delivered automatically by your robot friend, HostBot (talk) 16:09, 25 December 2014 (UTC) |
Your recent edits
[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
- With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.
This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 22:36, 25 December 2014 (UTC)
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Choose12, 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 any other 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.)
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
- Simplified Manual of Style
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. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}}
before the question. Again, welcome! MrBill3 (talk) 22:00, 27 December 2014 (UTC)
A word to the wise
[edit]Every edit you have made to the encyclopaedia has served to boost a controversial alternative health outfit, the consensus view of which in reliable independent sources is monumentally unflattering. You refuse to answer questions about your relationship to this company or the cult it supports. At this point you should stop editing the article directly and instead propose specific and detailed changes on the talk page, with reliable independent sources, otherwise you should resign yourself to being shown the door.
Note that this is purely personal advice but based on my long experience as an administrator watching controversial articles, especially on quackery and pseudoscience. If you want to protect the reputation of Benhayon's company then you need to approach it in a way that is likely to work, rather than what you are doing at the moment, which is pretty much guaranteed to fail. We are interested in neutrality, we are not interested in apologia for cranks, quacks and charlatans. You should probably also make yourself familiar with this commentary from our founder.

[edit]Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Universal Medicine. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Ad Orientem (talk) 22:42, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
Talk Pages
[edit]Hi Choose12. I've moved a comment you made on the Talk:Universal Medicine page to the bottom of the paragraph to which it is referring in the section Conflicts of interest and single purpose accounts. You had written it in the middle of another editor's paragraph which was making the discussion difficult to follow. 79616gr (talk) 22:42, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
Worth a read
[edit]Hello, and thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia.
It might be worth you having a read of this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Contributing_to_Wikipedia. It's helpful in discussions to follow Wikipedia guidelines to formatting, and also comment in the "edit summary" section after making contributions. In your recent additions to the Universal Medicine Talk Page you begin your comments in the the section "Additional Sources" and then continue in a new section you have created. While your contributions are welcomed and valid, it just makes it easier for other editors if you can follow a traditional contribution format. I've tidied up contributions you've made previously (indeed the above comment on your Talk page is in relation to this) so I think the article I mention could really aid you in your Wikipedia editing. I've moved your earlier comment in to the new section you made so things are clearer for all. 79616gr (talk) 01:33, 22 May 2016 (UTC)
A kitten for you!

Curious. Why would I want picture of a kitten? Not relevant to anything else on my talk page but cute I agree Choose12 (talk) 02:04, 22 May 2016 (UTC) Oh and thanks for moving my comment to an appropriate place. i hadn't realised I had put it in the middle of something else as it appeared to me to follow from the articles you had put up in the same topic.Choose12 (talk) 02:06, 22 May 2016 (UTC)
- A friendly gesture, that's all. 79616gr (talk) 03:41, 22 May 2016 (UTC)
