Hello, I'm Evaders99. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Blessing, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. See WP:CS Evaders99 (talk) 11:44, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Albert Camus, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Meticulo (talk) 15:08, 21 June 2023 (UTC)

Hey there! I don't want to be rude but I thought you might want to see this: https://quoteinvestigator.com/2015/08/23/friend/ . It seems to indicate that Camus was probably not the original author of that quote. Ronsaur (talk) 04:49, 24 June 2023 (UTC)

Minor thing

On edits like this: [1]. On WP talkpages, it's bad form to change your edit after someone has replied, since the reply-er could only respond to what was there in the first place. More at WP:REDACT. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 07:46, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

Please do not delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, as you did at Talk:Jesus. Such edits are disruptive, and may appear to other editors to be vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Thank you. StephenMacky1 (talk) 11:10, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

their comments are both unprofessional, rude and at times racist.JohnEC Jr (talk) 11:15, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

That's a bold accusation to make. I'd say you should read WP:NPA. You cannot remove the comments of other editors simply because you disagree with them or because they come off as "unprofessional" to you. StephenMacky1 (talk) 11:30, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

The false accusations of "unprofessionalism and racism" along with other behavioral issues are significant enough to get the admins involved, I believe. I'll create the incident shortly so they can advise. Jtrevor99 (talk) 13:43, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

Admin incident notification

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Jtrevor99 (talk) 13:46, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, JohnEC Jr. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page E. C. John, 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, clients, or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} 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 Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
• 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, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. El_C 15:27, 21 August 2023 (UTC)
