Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, 74.101.175.30. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Atlantic Beach Bridge, 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 {{edit COI}} 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. Epicgenius (talk) 00:48, 7 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

We are the official NASAU County Bridge Authority. This page should not be manipulated. We are reporting our history. 74.101.175.30 (talk) 06:08, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

This is not the County Bridge Authority's page. This is Wikipedia's page about the bridge. Please read the links above about dealing with conflicts of interest. Meters (talk) 06:40, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There are no conflict of interests. However, the history that you're posting is highly erroneous and it is doing a disservice. 74.101.175.30 (talk) 07:31, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You wrote We are the official NASAU County Bridge Authority. That is a clear conflict of interest. If there are problems with the article then follow the conflict of interest guidelines and request edits on the article's talk page. Meters (talk) 07:34, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In fact, since it appears that you work for the authority, you would be a WP:PAID editor, not just a conflict of interest editor. Meters (talk) 07:40, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I don't work for the authority but we will be alerting the authority of this malicious intentions 74.101.175.30 (talk) 07:43, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

So if you don't work for the authority, how is it you can claim We are the official NASAU County Bridge Authority. ?

And my edits and user:Materialscientist's edits are not malicious. Please read WP:NPA Meters (talk) 07:54, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

And user:Epicgenius and user:C.Fred's reverts are not malicious either. Meters (talk) 07:58, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You have made two contradictory statements: We are the official NASAU [sic] County Bridge Authority and There are no conflict of interests. Please indicate which is the correct statement:

You represent the bridge authority, have a conflict of interest, and are subject to all the restrictions of WP:PAID and WP:COI on your conduct here.
You do not represent the bridge authority, so at the minimum, your claims to be an official representative of the authority are false.

If you do not address this issue, we may have to assume the second statement is correct and block your access in the interest of protecting the authority and the article about the bridge from impersonation and disruption. —C.Fred (talk) 13:32, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

December 2023[edit]

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Atlantic Beach Bridge, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Materialscientist (talk) 06:32, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Atlantic Beach Bridge. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Meters (talk) 06:37, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Atlantic Beach Bridge, you may be blocked from editing. Meters (talk) 07:35, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Atlantic Beach Bridge. Materialscientist (talk) 07:41, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Atlantic Beach Bridge shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
