Craigmore Christian School[edit]

I have undone your addition of content because it is clearly in breach of WP:TRIVIA and WP:WPSCH/AG on several levels. Before trying to add the content again, I strongly suggest that you try to gain consensus at Talk:Craigmore Christian School or at WP:WPSCH. ˜danjel [ talk | contribs ] 04:19, 13 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please be aware of relevant wikipedia policy BEFORE editing a wikipedia page! The content you are insisting on including on the Craigmore Christian College article is in breach of many aspects of WP:WPSCH/AG, WP:NOT and WP:TRIVIA. ALWAYS discuss situations, particularly where you are editing against consensus, on the talkpages per WP:CONSENSUS. ˜danjel [ talk | contribs ] 04:48, 13 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

October 2011[edit]

Your recent edits seem to have the appearance of edit warring after a review of the reverts you have made on Craigmore Christian School. Users are expected to collaborate and discuss with others and avoid editing disruptively.

Please be particularly aware, the three-revert rule states that:

Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss the changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. ˜danjel [ talk | contribs ] 04:21, 13 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Dominic.hopps. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Craigmore Christian School, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should 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;
participating in deletion discussions about articles related to you, your organization or its competitors; and
linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant 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. ˜danjel [ talk | contribs ] 04:49, 13 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that school articles on Wikipedia do not "belong" to the school concerned and should not be written by or "on behalf of" the school. In particular, it is never acceptable to use "we/our" in any WP article. Articles must be written in the third person. Alarics (talk) 08:08, 13 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

February 2012[edit]

Hello Dominic.hopps. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

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 following the 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. ˜danjel [ talk | contribs ] 06:13, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did at Craigmore Christian School, you may be blocked from editing. Please STOP whitewashing this article without first discussing the issue on the talk page. ˜danjel [ talk | contribs ] 22:53, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks for using the talk pages. This is the best way to get stuff done on wikipedia (talk to other editors, or, at least, let them know what's happening). ˜danjel [ talk | contribs ] 07:36, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
