Bellevue International School[edit]

Hi, I am the user Tony_Sidaway on IRC. A person identifying himself with your username Betsaari requested a change on the #wikipedia-en-help channel. If this is an error it is easily reversed. Either undo the edit yourself or just ask on that channel or on this user talk page.

Anyway, thanks for your information. I've updated the references in the article as you requested. Please check the change (see here) and let us know immediately if there are any errors or if we can help any further. --TS 19:43, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

December 2012[edit]

Hello, I'm Barek. I wanted to let you know that I removed an external link you added, because it seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 01:37, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it.

Your recent edits[edit]

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 01:47, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Social promotion with this edit. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thank you.

This is your last warning; the next time you harm Wikipedia, as you did at Social promotion with this edit, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines.

A word of caution when writing about a subject you're connected to[edit]

Hello, Betsaari. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article International School (Bellevue, Washington), you may need to consider our guidance on conflicts of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 03:13, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In as much as you keep starting new threads on my talk page, I am no longer issuing talkback messages here. The burden is on you to check my talk page for replies. You may find it useful to add my talk page to your watchlist. —C.Fred (talk) 01:04, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
