: Hello MelanieN. Thank you so much for your message. I could not figure out what happened to my most recent Article, but if you could please replace the political version that offended many editors, with the non-political scientific version I would be most grateful. I have no idea of who [[:User:HBraun2016]] is, but it is not me. Thank you again for your assistance, and any suggestions you may have are always very much appreciated.[[User:Harry W Braun III|Harry W Braun III]] ([[User talk:Harry W Braun III#top|talk]]) 17:21, 20 August 2015 (UTC) |

Revision as of 17:21, 20 August 2015
A tag has been placed on your user page, User:Harry W Braun III/sandbox, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be blatant advertising which only promotes or publicises a company, product, group or service, and which is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages; user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.
If you can indicate why the page is not blatant advertising, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: Click here to contest this speedy deletion which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy deletion candidate). Doing so will take you to your user talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also edit this page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would help make it encyclopedic. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 12:35, 12 August 2015 (UTC)

Please do not write or add 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 my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you. — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 16:23, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Harry W Braun III. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you have an external relationship with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 16:23, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. MelanieN (talk) 17:08, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
- Harry W. Braun III, please stop promoting your candidacy on Wikipedia. You have created both a userpage and a Wikipedia article about yourself. But you and your candidacy do not meet Wikipedia's requirements for inclusion here, which you can find at WP:GNG and WP:BIO. In order to qualify for an article here, you and your candidacy must be reported on by independent reliable sources (major newspapers count as independent reliable sources; Facebook does not). Good luck with your campaign, but Wikipedia is not a place where you can promote it. --MelanieN (talk) 17:18, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for August 19
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Harry Braun, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Constitutional conventions (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

The new article
Hello, Mr. Braun! I was confused by your note on my talk page, where you said that you have removed all references to your campaign from your article and made it just about your scientific work. I was puzzled because the article Harry Braun is still about your presidential campaign. I looked into the histories, and apparently what happened is that you created a brand new article, Harry W. Braun III, IN ADDITION to the existing Harry Braun article about your campaign. But we can't have two articles on the same subject, so somebody redirected the new article to Harry Braun.
If you really want the "scientific" version to be the main and only article, I can restore what you wrote there, and make the Harry Braun article into a redirect. Or I can copy-paste what you wrote there (which still exists, you can see it under "view history" at the top of the article) into the article Harry Braun, replacing the "presidential version" with the "scientific version". For that matter you can do either of these things yourself, they do not require administrator tools.
A more serious question is about a new user called User:HBraun2016 who made some minor edits to the article Harry Braun. Is that you, under a different username? --MelanieN (talk) 14:44, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
