Welcome!
[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions have removed content without a good reason to do so. Content on Wikipedia should not be removed just because you disagree with it or because you think it's wrong, unless the claim is not verifiable. Instead, you should consider expanding the article with noteworthy and verifiable information of your own, citing reliable sources when you do so. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the sandbox rather than in articles. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Simplified Manual of Style
- Task Center – need some ideas of what kind of things need doing? Go here.
Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! —C.Fred (talk) 20:41, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

[edit]Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Craig Overton, 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. —C.Fred (talk) 21:02, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
DISCLOSE AND STOP EDITING
[edit]Hello,
Based off your comment on my talk page, I assume you are jatamanagement. I didn't issue that block, Nihonjoe did. The reason for why they blocked you is spelt out in that big blue box.
Now, as it was a "soft" block, which notes "creating a new account" as an option, this account's username is fine. However, the obligation to disclose your paid link before editing is still required, as is using the edit request wizard.
The reasoning for not allowing the original edit was as I said then. You either need to lay out how the secondary source does not match up with the policy text or you need to find other secondary sources that back up an alternate text.
You just claiming it doesn't match actual events is not an acceptable way of amending.
I suggest finding some sources and taking them to the talk page. Nosebagbear (talk) 10:42, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
- I’m not jatamanagement…. So that can be reversed! I’llLeave that with you to sort… the sources back up my view!! Southernraider (talk) 11:26, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
- With the exception of a need to disclose paid editing, you being Jata or not makes fairly little difference. As I explained then, saying "the sources back up my view" isn't an answer. You need to take it to the talk page if you want a change at this point. You can also take a look at the change that was made earlier today by another editor that tried to clarify the dispute.
