You appear to have an axe to grind with Noormohamed as your edits are singularly focused on adding information that has been proven inaccurate. Your edits have been deleted by Walter Gorlitz - a moderator - and you continue to delete credible sources that refute your ad hominem attacks. I will be filing a complaint as you clearly have a conflict of interest here. Let it go. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.119.108.113 (talk) 12:23, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
- Complaints from IP addresses aren't likely to find a lot of support. You could always do your other trick, which is create a throwaway account to use, then get rid of it... like the "Pljericho89" one, etc.
- Here's what Walter Gorlitz said on April 15,2022 at 20:54: "To his (Noormohameds) paid editors: stop removing content from this article."
- The only conflict of interest I have is that I live in the district and I insist that my government representatives show some understanding of ethical behavior and integrity. I will continue to find credible and well sourced media outlets to fill out this profile. And you and I both know I can publish a LOT more, like a failed mayoralty run and why criticism arose there. I have chosen not to do that.
Lastly, you should keep in mind that everything done to this page has some degree of transparency to it. I am quite happy with that - it's why I registered. But you and 'others' should think very very carefully. You may be comfortable operating in the shadows and hiding your actions from public scrutiny - but those days are over and everything you and others have done to massage Noormohameds past on this page (while badgering and threatening other editors) is viewable by any member of the public.

[edit]Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits a summary may be quite brief.
Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! Walter Görlitz (talk) 05:54, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
Managing a conflict of interest
[edit]Hello, NiceTryEarl. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Taleeb Noormohamed, 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 Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming);
- 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. It is not clear whether you are connected to the subject or have a deep interest in the subject, but your editing pattern matches that of a Wikipedia:Single-purpose account. If you are connected you should make that clear per the CoI guidelines. if you are not, that too would be good to address. Thanks for helping improve the article.

Clarification on "Criticism" Section
[edit]Hi. There may be a lot of literature about the practice of ‘flipping’, and they may mention it being used for illegal purposes, but the sources you used did not mention the subject of the article. If you want to include that sort of stuff in a BLP, you’re going to need reliable sources linking the subject of the BLP to these particular aspects of the practice. Given the sources available, the topic is adequately covered in the 2021 campaign section. Expanding it to an entire section of its own would be WP:UNDUE. Brunton (talk) 13:56, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Taleeb Noormohamed, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. The additions to the article *as written* are synthesis of primary sources. You either need to keep sourced info more tightly with the citation or keep it more "matter of fact" that you have it or both. It's also marginally WP:UNDUE unless you've got a reliable secondary source ("reliable" based on Wikipedia standards: WP:RS) ButlerBlog (talk) 14:49, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
