Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Scott Lingamfelter, 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. Thank you.

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Scottlingamfelter. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Scott Lingamfelter, 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. LakesideMiners^{Come Talk To Me!} 02:11, 11 January 2020 (UTC)

Important next steps

Greetings! There are two things you need to do to continue editing, particularly if you want to have voice at the Scott Lingamfelter article.

1. Contact the Volunteer Response Team via email to verify your identity. This sort of verification needs to be done through email, not in the open archive of talk pages.
2. Because you are the subject of the article, you should not edit Scott Lingamfelter directly. However, you may request edits via the Talk:Scott Lingamfelter page. You may want to use the {{Request edit}} template to highlight your request. Editors with conflicts of interest should never edit articles where they have a conflict, and the subject of an article always has a conflict with their own article.

Please reply here if you need additional assistance in this process. I will be watching this user talk page. —C.Fred (talk) 22:55, 11 January 2020 (UTC)

• As a reminder, requested edits go on the talk page, not into the main article. I have reverted your edits to Scott Lingamfelter accordingly. —C.Fred (talk) 00:13, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
