Unsourced additions[edit]

I have removed your unsourced additions to the article Johnny Hon. All content you add to the encyclopedia needs sourcing. Please refer to WP:Identifying reliable sources for how to identify appropriate sources for use on Wikipedia. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:07, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Deannaa, Please note that all information posted to Johnny Hon Wikipedia page is sourced directly from Dr. Johnny Hon's website www.johnnyhon.com. Please allow us to maintain this page's accuracy based on the information from the said website, and refrain from removing further information.

Diannaa, please look at this joint again. Editor claims that sourcing to the subject's website is fine. Editor seems to think one can simply copy someone's personal website onto Wikipedia. If you and I get together and write up a grant proposal for the WMF, perhaps we can also become Lords of Chesterton. Drmies (talk) 03:47, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Gowiki1: Johnny Hon's website is a primary source and should not be used as the main source of material for a biography of a living person. It should only be used to augment what independent sources have written about the subject. We have no interest in what a subject wishes to say about himself or how he wants to be portrayed; the writings of disinterested third parties are what should be considered.

Please also note that the subject of the article has no right of ownership or editorial control over its content. Wikipedia is a collaborative project, and anyone who is editing in good faith may make changes. Consensus is Wikipedia's fundamental model for editorial decision making.

As you appear to be a single-purpose account, I must ask if you are in any way associated with Johnny Hon, either personally or professionally. If so, then you have a conflict of interest which you should disclose. If you are being paid in any way to represent his interests, then it is mandatory for you to disclose this fact, per Wikipedia's terms of use and paid editing disclosure rules. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 04:36, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Gowiki1. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Johnny Hon, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. --Orange Mike | Talk 13:39, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
