Hello, Jennifer Kahnweiler, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Louis S. Kahnweiler, which 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 another 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.)

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Information icon Hello, I'm 2601:188:1:AEA0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63. I noticed that you made a change to an article, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. 2601:188:1:AEA0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 02:36, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, Jennifer Kahnweiler. 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 COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
  • instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. 2601:188:1:AEA0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 02:36, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    • please place the content back so we can review it! I added objective cconten on Louis Kahnweiler and it is now gone..very disappointed!!
      • I'm sorry, but what was removed doesn't belong in an encyclopedia article, and will be removed by other editors besides myself. It's warm content that speaks to your father-in-law's character, but it's unsourced and not appropriate for this venue. Please don't continue to restore it. And please read Wikipedia's guidelines re: WP:COI, WP:NPOV and WP:RELIABLE--that's a very helpful alphabet soup. Thank you, 2601:188:1:AEA0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 02:45, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon 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:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. 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. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:52, 16 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Louis S. Kahnweiler

[edit]

Hi Jennifer Khanweiler. As you've been advised above, you really should try to refrain from directly editing Louis S. Kahnweiler because of your conflict of interest. While certain edits are probably OK as explained in WP:COIADVICE, any new content you wish to add should probably be discussed on the article's talk page to see if there's a consesnus for it. Moreover, Wikipedia article's are not intended to be memorials and are not intended to include everything you can find online about the subject. The source you added for the Tate gallery does not seem to support the content you added about being cousins with Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler and Gustave Kahnweile, so it has no value for verification purposes. Moreover, Wikipedia articles are not under any condition to be reliable sources for other Wikipedia articles. Finally, you shouldn't be the one removing the COI template from the article when it was added because you are the one with the COI. The same thing applies to the notability template since for obvious reasons you feel the subject is "notable", but it might not be so clear to others that the subject is "Wikipedia notable" per WP:BIO. Anyway, I believe you mean well, but once again it would be better for you to use the article's talk page as explained in WP:PSCOI#Steps for engagement when you want to make anything other than a minor edit to the article. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:25, 29 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
