[edit]

Hello, I'm Blaze Wolf. I noticed that you made a change to an article, People (magazine), but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:06, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Blaze - I am the PR Director for PEOPLE Magazine. PEOPLE's new editor in chief is WENDY NAUGLE. I would like to update the PEOPLE page. I would also like to update the cover, which is outdated. It is not a copyright violation, since PEOPLE owns the rights to the covers. KoolJool817 (talk) 15:13, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If you are the PR Director than you have a direct WP:Conflict of Interest and should not edit the article directly. Also, it would be a copy vio unless People releases the cover into the public domain ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:27, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at People (magazine), you may be blocked from editing. You continue changing it and yet the source goes against what you change it to.Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:25, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I told you I am the PR DIRECTOR FOR PEOPLE MAGAZINE.
I gave you my work email address.
What else do you need for me to prove I am a reliable source.
I can send you the current masthead of PEOPLE, which shows that WENDY NAUGLE is the current editor in chief.
My editing isn't "disruptive." It is accurate.

You are not a reliable source at all. What you are is WP:Original Research. I suggest you read this page so you know what actually is a reliable source. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:35, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That's interesting because I am the one who updated the page with the last editor in chief's name.
I work for PEOPLE, so all of this is extremely confusing.
How does one now become a "reliable source"? KoolJool817 (talk) 15:47, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That's the neat part: You don't. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:48, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
How do we get the page updated with the correct information? 209.251.198.254 (talk) 15:49, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You forgot to log in. Ask this question at WP:TEA. People will be able to give better answers there (no not the magazine you work for). ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:51, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If you have any more questions please ask them at WP:TEA so that more editors can answer your questions. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:49, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
