Welcome![edit]

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

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Talk:Roger Waters, 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).

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Thank you Eggishorn, so you can add the wild orchids in a new section maybe called honors and other things like that? If you want I can send you the original article. Thanks again, MarcusGargiuloi (talk) 17:57, 12 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you want a reply specifically from Eggishorn, you may want to notify them so they see your message, for example by beginning your query with the code {{replyto|Eggishorn}}. Regarding your question, I don't think it's appropriate to mention the orchid in the article on Waters. When newspapers, reputable magazines or books discuss this honor of Waters, then it's time to mention it in the Wikipedia article. Right now it seems rather self-serving to bestow a honor on Waters and then ask for the honor you bestowed to be prominently mentioned on Wikipedia. Huon (talk) 19:35, 12 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm just replying so that I don't rudely ignore you but Huon has already given the same response I would have. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 02:05, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
