[edit]Hello, I'm Yoshi24517. I noticed that in this edit to Rebecca Bradley (judge), you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Yoshi24517 (Chat) (Online) 23:05, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Rebecca Bradley (judge), 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 your sandbox for that. Thank you.

[edit]Hello, Rlgbjd. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Rebecca Bradley (judge), 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, clients, 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. Thank you. Muhibm0307 (talk) 06:32, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
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. Muhibm0307 (talk) 06:46, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
It's risky to edit your own article if you're in politics!
[edit]If you are connected to Rebecca Bradley, it's very risky to get caught editing that biography. It gets in the news very quickly and then it blows up. Here's a recent example that's turned into a huge stink for the officials involved:
See their current articles:
- Elaine O'Neal (politician)#Tenure
- DeDreana Freeman#Controversies
- Monique Holsey-Hyman#Extortion allegations and investigation
More important to their political lives was all the local coverage. It was the lead story for a couple of news cycles.
The press loves "judge edits own Wikipedia article stories". Of course, in this case they especially loved "politicians threaten Wikipedia editors". This happens somewhere every week or two.
If you think that article is incorrect, use Talk:Rebecca Bradley to discuss the edits you recommend others make (consistent with our content guidelines)
You're already on thin ice depending on who looks at the (public) edit history of the article.

- It's made it into the news. I've taken the liberty of advising on the admin notice board as to the conflict of interest and apparent edit warring now going on today, requesting admin look into the matter and semi-protecting the article until the news blows over.Wzrd1 (talk) 18:28, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
