Hello
[edit] Hello, I'm KoshVorlon. An edit that you recently made to World Financial Group seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks!
In the comments on this page, all users were asked not to change the description of Wold Financial group from a multi-level marketing group without sourcing. It was reliably sourced to the New York Times. I saw you changed the text, but not the source, so I've had to revert you. KoshVorlon 19:36, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
Re: Your post on my page
[edit]Lztfas,
Thanks for your post. I hear you, however, Wikipedia doesn't require legal proof, Wikipedia requires that anything said on Wikipedia be referenced to a reliable source, and in fact, World Financial Group was | called a pyramid or a Multi-Level Marketing group within the article , referenced reliably to the New York Times, the link I gave you appears in the article and it does say that.
If you want to say that World Financial Group is not a Multi-level Marketing group, you'll need a reliable source that says that. (That was your point #1 )
Regarding point #2 You provided reasons why you believe World Financial Group isn't an MLM, however, just as I can't edit Wikipedia on what I believe , or what I know, neither can you. You'll need reliable sources. There are already reliable sources in the article stating that World Financial is an MLM.
As to Point #3 We do request that articles be reliably sourced and balanced, but that doesn't always mean including both sides of the story. Again, we can only include what's been reliably sourced, so again, if you have reliable sources that state World Financial isn't an MLM, feel free to present them.
As to point 4, I'm going to assume good faith, however, I hadn't heard of World Financial Group until I saw this in recent changes just now, I've never worked for , nor know anyone that has worked for them. So , I'm not biased, nor is the Financial world unknown to me, I used to work at TradeStation ( which IS part of the Finance Industry ) , now in fairness, none of what I just said could in anyway be used to remove your work on the article, but the source within the article (New York Times) is my basis for remove your remarks that World Financial is not an MLM.
I'm wondering if you may be affiliated with them, due to the way you changed the article and your knowledge of the company, now I won't ask , nor will I push you to say if you are or not, per WP:OUTING.
If you'd like to state that World Financial isn't an MLM, all you need do is find a reliable source and reference that source within the article, and you'll be good. KoshVorlon 20:19, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
Just to let you know
[edit]This will be of interest to you . I just filed this just now, and you have a right to be aware of this and defend yourself against what I've said. KoshVorlon 20:32, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
