Please add citations to the Crystal Cave article you are editing; otherwise your edits will be reverted. Thank you-RFD (talk) 22:00, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you for the kitten; please add the citations. I need to remain you about COI concerns since you are an employee working at the cave. Thanks-RFD (talk) 22:11, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
- The citations need to come from secondary sources and not just from the website involving the cave; this is Wikipedia guidelines-RFD (talk) 22:15, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Crystal Cave (Wisconsin). Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.

Hello, Hachmejo13. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Crystal Cave (Wisconsin), you may need to consider our guidance on conflicts of interest.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. --Orange Mike | Talk 01:16, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

Hachmejo13, you are invited to the Teahouse
[edit]Hi Hachmejo13! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. |
Welcome!
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia! And thank you for your interest in contributing to our project. Since you have a specifically disclosed involvement with Crystal Cave (Wisconsin) here are some articles to get you started to better understand the policies here:
Wikipedia:Coi - deals specifically with conflict of interests Wikipedia:Spa - deals regarding single-purpose accounts, which presumably yours will be Wikipedia:PROMOTION - clarification that Wikipedia is NOT a place for promotion Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations - a discussion about what companies, such as yours, should do, regarding editing articles on Wikipedia Wikipedia:Article_development - this discusses how best to contribute to the development of existing articles
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask... You don't specifically have to read ALL of those articles, however you will find your editing experience on Wikipedia significantly improved if you understand the concepts represented in those articles. It seems like several other editors have given you warnings, but perhaps this might wrap some better context around why you're having problems with your edits being reverted/removed. Thanks, Tiggerjay (talk) 08:01, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
- Please also note that there is also concern from other editors that you might be involved in Wikipedia:Sock puppetry - please take a moment to read that as well. Tiggerjay (talk) 08:26, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
