Tip of the day...

Making the editbox more visually pleasing

Do you know the CC BY-SA/GFDL License inside-out, and have thousands of edits to your credit? Are all those copyright disclaimer warnings starting to bug you? Add this to your (pick one): vector.css (default), monobook.css, modern.css, minerva.css Skin (or add it to your common.css to hit all your skins):

/* Remove to-me-useless notes in all edit boxes. leaves only the command buttons and special chars. */ #editpage-copywarn { display: none; } #editpage-copywarn1 { display: none; } #editpage-copywarn2 { display: none; } #editpage-copywarn3 { display: none; } div.editpage-head-copywarn { display: none; }

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Michaelxanstice. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Hinayana (band), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
• disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 14:33, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
