User talk:Ghvwahl

Welcome!

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

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Von Wahl, 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, 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).

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed maintenance templates from Von Wahl. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Please see Help:Maintenance template removal for further information on when maintenance templates should or should not be removed. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 03:37, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Von Wahl, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Your edits are leaving the article in worse condition, because you're breaking formatting in the article: incorrectly bolding headings, deleting the reflist, adding unnecessary footers from wherever the article text was initially copied from, etc. Please edit incrementally; don't just copy your preferred text over what's currently in the article. —C.Fred (talk) 03:43, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I won't copy over any more. Sorry about that. Didn't realize I had stopped with the first round of insertion and edits. ghwahl (talk) 04:11, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
