[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that the username you have chosen (MAZStubbins) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this:

  1. It is possible that you have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization or adding links to its website.
  2. Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guidelines concerning editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. The article in question is KlingStubbins. Thank you. Tow Trucker talk 19:23, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Tow Trucker:

I have read Wikipedia's guidelines carefully and I do not believe I am in violation of any policy whatsoever. I am not using Wikipedia as an advertising platform; I am merely making some corrections to the Wikipedia page for the company I worked for, as it contained several errors. I additioanlly deleted several "advertisement" type words from the description to make it sound more neutral (the past version described my company with many congratulatory adjectives, which I deleted.) Given this, I am confused by your flagging this page as reading like an advertisement and needed citations. What more am I supposed to do?

Hello! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. As per your request, I have removed the advertisement flag from the page. However, I have not removed the citations warning. Please add references to support any changes you make on Wikipedia. --Tow Trucker talk 19:36, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
