Welcome![edit]

Hello, MangoZona, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Benjamin Lemaire, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Proposed deletion of Benjamin Lemaire[edit]

The article Benjamin Lemaire has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. reddogsix (talk) 16:16, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

August 2017[edit]

Please accept my apology for posting a rather unfriendly message to this page earlier. I thought you had been deliberately trying to get round Wikipedia policy in a dishonest way, but I have now seen the message you posted to me, and it seems you were in fact acting in perfectly good faith. I have answered your message on the talk page where you posted it. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 19:34, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, there are a lot of major french sources, but some are talking about his case. I saw that we cant talk about the case in the article, and just use some link to source the article and make it acceptable for guidelines. MangoZona (talk) 11:58, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

December 2017[edit]

Hi @Mangozona, please stop erasing genuine edits on the Benjamin Lemaire's page. This page needs to be properly handled and you can not undo edits like removing a sentence where they say Lemaire discovered Justin Bieber (!!!!) (moreover when it is referenced by an article by Lemaire saying Bieber is already selling millions of records). Wikipedia is a collaborative space, you have to accept changes made by others, as far as they respect the policies. And please, do reference any addition you make (you don't, or the references made are quite poor). Thank you in advance, I am looking foraward seeing your contributions to this page.

WP:COI[edit]

Hello, MangoZona. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Benjamin Lemaire, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. 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, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
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 must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. CityOfSilver 17:45, 7 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Three-revert rule[edit]

Your recent editing history at Benjamin Lemaire shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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. See BRD for 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 your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
