ICL VME

Thanks for adding more detail to the page. VME was the first commercial OS I used (as a systems programer) after university where we had GEORGE 3 and 4. I went on to work on IBM mainframes, it was like going back to ancient times compared to working on VME. The IBM sales support guys could not get their heads around SCL, thinking it was ICL's equivalent to JCL... all came good when they let REXX out to play. The ICL machines being replaced were modern boring air-cooled cabinets, the IBM was beautiful polished brass cooling pipe, we had the last generation of these before IBM went air-cooled.

Hello, I'm Dudhhr. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on David Pearson (computer scientist), but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! dudhhr_Contribs 04:44, 17 August 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made a change to an article, David Pearson (computer scientist), 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) 05:08, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at David Pearson (computer scientist), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. - AssumeGoodWraith (talk | contribs) 05:17, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at David Pearson (computer scientist). Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose their editing privileges on that page. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges. Thank you.

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, 24.207.103.36. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page David Pearson (computer scientist) ‎, 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 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. Since you state here [1] that you are David Pearson, you should follow the procedures for requesting edits to the article about you rather than making them yourself.

And stop SHOUTING in ALL CAPS [2], [3]. And stop adding your input to Articles for deletion/David Pearson (computer scientist), unless it has something to do with whether or not the article should be deleted. And if you are David Pearson, please disclose that fact. And whoever you may be, ask a trusted friend to look over your edits and give their honest opinion as to whether or not they are an embarrassment. _signed, Willondon (talk) 04:05, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:David John Pearson

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:David John Pearson requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/David Pearson (computer scientist). When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.
