Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, Adam Cleary. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article World Flash Snooker Amateurs Facebook Group, 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. OnionRing (talk) 14:32, 10 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I just wanted to have my facebook group on here Adam Cleary (talk) 15:13, 10 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

If you still don't understand why you can't, that indicates a a lack of the necessary competence to edit here. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 15:37, 10 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I didn't know I wasn't aloud to remove stuff that you put onto my page(s). You also removed all my hard work on a few of my pages saying "Advertising." I don't believe it was "Advertising." So can you unblock me and give all my hard work back? Thanks! Adam Cleary (talk) 19:10, 11 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

The problem isn't that you removed warnings on your talk page, the problem is the content of your hard work. It's unsuitable for Wikipedia and will not be restored. Huon (talk) 19:22, 11 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I really need to be unblocked. I didn't know I wasn't aloud to remove the Warnings. Adam Cleary (talk) 18:21, 25 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

You are not blocked for removing warnings, you are blocked for repeatedly trying to promote your Facebook thing, and you will not be unblocked without addressing that. At a minimum, you would need to make it clear that you understand the reason for the block and explain what you would do if unblocked. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 19:04, 25 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
