Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Emmykflowers, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits to the page Brad Elterman has not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and has been or will be removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. Additionally, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

Brad Elterman's page
[edit]On Wikipedia, editing your own Wikipedia page is discouraged. Editing someone's Wikipedia page on their behalf is also discouraged. If you wish to make changes to a page, refer to and cite neutral reliable sources. Let me know if you have any questions, thank you. Fench (talk) 23:19, 22 June 2015 (UTC)
- Agree with this, they do not own the Wikipedia page about them, per WP:OWN. Wikipedia relies on reliable sources, and you shouldn't be removing sourced content without a consensus to do so. If you wish to remove sourced content, it should be discussed at Talk:Brad Elterman- this is the place place for someone with a conflict of interest, like you have, to suggest changes- WP:COI discourages you from directly editing the article.
- Also, be aware of WP:3RR, which says that you must not revert content more than 3 times in a 24 hour period. Go to the article talkpage to discuss changes, instead of readding the content again. Joseph2302 (talk) 23:26, 22 June 2015 (UTC)
