Information icon Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as St. Albert, Alberta. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 01:59, 11 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, I'm 117Avenue. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Nolan Crouse have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. 117Avenue (talk) 03:02, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please explain further I read the "soapbox" section and your removal of my edit was not warranted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AlbertaGal (talkcontribs) 22:22, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Nolan Crouse. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges.

[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Marchjuly. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Alberta Liberal Party leadership election, 2017 , but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Please note that the verifiability policy mandates that unsourced material that has been challenged, such as by a "fact" tag, or by its removal, may not be added back without a reliable, published source being cited for the content, using an inline citation. The cited source must clearly support the material as presented in the article, and the burden is on the person wishing to keep in the disputed material. So if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so, following these requirements! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 14:06, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not add or change content, as you did at Alberta Liberal Party leadership election, 2017, without citing a reliable source using an inline citation that clearly supports the material. The burden is on the person wishing to keep in the material to meet these requirements, as a necessary (but not always sufficient) condition. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:24, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest editing

[edit]

Information icon Hello, 199.185.226.4. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Alberta Liberal Party leadership election, 2017, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
  • instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate 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).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:26, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The type of content you keep trying to add to both Nolan Crouse and Alberta Liberal Party leadership election, 2017 is not only unsourced, it is also highly promotion. Wikipedia is not a place to promote any candidate or their candidacy per WP:ADVOCACY. Neutrally worded statements in both content and tone are fine, but that's not really what you've been doing. I think that it might be a good idea for you to discuss any further content related to Crouse to Wikipedia at the talk page of the article where you want to add it. If you keep piling up user warnings, eventually an administrator is going to be asked to step in to determine if further action is needed. Experienced editors are watching both articles and they will do their best to ensure that any content added to them by any editor is in accordance with relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:40, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
