Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Columbia, Mississippi, you may be blocked from editing. John from Idegon (talk) 17:49, 5 March 2018 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hello, ClaudeMusicWire, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Columbia, Mississippi, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms our use and policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• Tutorial
• How to edit a page and How to develop articles
• How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
• Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "ClaudeMusicWire", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it appears to represent a company rather than an individual. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing this form, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. John from Idegon (talk) 17:52, 5 March 2018 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising, as you did at Columbia, Mississippi. So you "were unaware it would be a problem", but yet, even after you were made aware that it was, you continued to make edits to Wikipedia to promote your client! That's more than just a little disingenuous. Your edits are in violation of two pillar policies (WP:V and WP:NOT, and our most important editing guideline, WP:BLP. The fact that you are making the edits you are making puts you personally in violation of our legally binding terms of use. Do not repeat your behavior please.

Hello

Actually, I didn't see these messages until after the edits were made. Again, no harm intended. I'm done making the edits and will refrain from any further edits on this page. ClaudeMusicWire (talk) 18:40, 5 March 2018 (UTC)
