Herb Carnegie

[edit]

Thanks for you edit to Herb Carnegie. I had to revert your change since it did not follow the Wikipedia Manual of Style. Also, the external link for Future Aces already existed at the bottom on the article. Flibirigit (talk) 17:34, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Date formats

[edit]

Wikipedia does not use ordinals in dates, rather just the number. For example, January 1, 2018 is correct, whereas January 1st, 2018 is incorrect. Flibirigit (talk) 17:37, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Are you a paid editor with a conflict of interest?

[edit]
Information icon

Hello Jumperfan. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, and that you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to Black hat SEO.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Jumperfan. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Jumperfan|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, please do not edit further until you answer this message. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:19, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Cliff Oberlin

[edit]

Hello Jumperfan,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Cliff Oberlin for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons. For more details please see the notice on the article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Hello, Jumperfan, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as Stronger2geth (talk · contribs). Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who use multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. Cabayi (talk) 18:22, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
