Roger Leir[edit]

If you want to add material about him to an article you need a source meeting our criteria at WP:RS. I've reverted your addition as it had no source. Dougweller (talk) 05:42, 25 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

March 2019[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but it appears you have written or added to an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was the page I created deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion[edit]

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 18:22, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I'm trying to resolve this Conflict of Interest complaint, as indicated in an email I received, with this link: 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 The concern over a Conflict of Interest is not completely warranted, but after reviewing what I could on Wikipedia policies, I can understand why the actions of Mediatech1, a Wiki Editor, could be interpreted as such. I have asked Mediatech1 to stop Editing the article of concern. William Gazecki 23:02, 30 January 2020 (UTC)

Clarification[edit]

Mr. Gazecki, regarding your post here, I did not take any special or technical action to make reversion of any of my edits more difficult. VQuakr (talk) 01:16, 31 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. While your intentions at the time may have been honorable, the fact is that what you left behind was NON-UNDOable. There was NO facility to Undo. Thus everything was LOST. That's just plain wrong, IMO.

The history of the page can be found here. Every version that has ever existed can be viewed from that link. While it is possible to suppress specific versions (for example if a middle schooler inserted gross insults), I do not have the technical ability to do this suppression myself. The version that existed just before I ever edited the article is here. VQuakr (talk) 01:40, 31 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wow. Thank you *very much*. I really appreciate this. William Gazecki 03:23, 31 January 2020 (UTC)
