Welcome!
[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Simplified Manual of Style
Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed maintenance templates from Touro College. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Please see Help:Maintenance template removal for further information on when maintenance templates should or should not be removed. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Hi, yes it was my intention to remove those maintenance templates. The issues have been addressed and I left notes explaining that. Please don’t undo my changes when I make them again, thanks! Lillibetsy (talk) 14:19, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
Hello. I wanted to let you know that in your recent contributions to Touro College, you seemed to act as if you were the owner of the page. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to Wikipedia. This means that editors do not own articles, including ones they create, and should respect the work of their fellow contributors. If you create or edit an article, remember that others are free to change its content. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did at Touro College, you may be blocked from editing. We've tried to explain this to you a few times now, but the way you are going about these additions is problematic. Please discuss on the article talk page. JesseRafe (talk) 12:40, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
I'm not sure why you keep blocking attempts to edit to this page, JesseRafe and Justlettersandnumbers, but please stop. To quote Wikipedia's own page on reverting:
"Consider carefully before reverting, as it rejects the contributions of another editor. Consider what you object to, and what the editor was attempting. Can you improve the edit, bringing progress, rather than reversion?"
If you have an issue with the Touro College page, you are welcome to add your own edits to make the page better, rather than putting up maintenance tags or reverting changes that someone worked hard to make. We are all trying to make Wikipedia the best resource it can be, and your behavior is not constructive.

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion
[edit]There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 14:51, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, I saw it but wasn't able to respond on that page for some reason. Here's what I wrote:
- Hi--you don't know me and your accusation that I have a conflict of interest is completely unfounded, as is your accusation of plagiarism. My changes are not copied from anywhere; all content is written by me and is unbiased and in line with Wikipedia standards. Your behavior on the Touro College page, along with JesseRafe's, is not in the spirit of making the page better. If you have constructive edits or additions to make, please feel free. In the meantime, please stop reverting changes and putting up maintenance tags. Also please stop threatening and harassing me, thanks! Lillibetsy (talk) 15:06, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
- You said what you wrote was
"in line with Wikipedia standards"
. Please explain to which standards you refer and how that material is compliant. Chris Troutman (talk) 15:12, 28 June 2019 (UTC)- It was informative, unbiased, cited, and clearly written. You are not the arbiter of Wikipedia standards and I don't owe you an explanation. That is all I have to say on this subject,thanks! Lillibetsy (talk) 15:23, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
- So as a newcomer, you're confused about what we want versus what you think is reasonable. Please read WP:COI, WP:RS, and WP:NPOV because those are actual Wikipedia standards. Also, please read WP:EW and WP:TEND because your editing here is leaving our behavioral norms. Chris Troutman (talk) 17:52, 28 June 2019 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm Chetsford. I noticed that you recently removed content from Touro College without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Chetsford (talk) 15:07, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Touro College, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. Chetsford (talk) 15:30, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
- Lillibetsy, if you continue to revert at Touro College without waiting for consensus, you are risking a block for edit warring. Even if you are strongly convinced you are right, there is no substitute for reaching agreement with others. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 17:51, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
Touro College
[edit]I'm a little concerned about your deletion request for Touro College (which I declined for other reasons). You've put quite a bit of work into the article, seem a bit defensive about your edits there, and now suddenly are asking for speedy deletion. You might need to read WP:OWN, because your behavior strongly resembles this. I hope you stick around and become a great editor.----Fabrictramp | talk to me 03:20, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
