== February 2016 ==
[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, I'm [[User:Joseph2302|Joseph2302]]. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added&nbsp;to the page [[:2016 ICC World Twenty20]], because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on [[User_talk:Joseph2302|my talk page]], or take a look at our [[Wikipedia:External links|guidelines]] about links. ''Links to ticket merchandising sites are not [[WP:RS|reliable sources]], and adding them can be seen as a way of trying to spam advertise these sites.'' [[Category:User talk pages with Uw-spam1 notices|{{PAGENAME}}]]<!-- Template:uw-spam1 --> [[User:Joseph2302|Joseph2302]] ([[User talk:Joseph2302|talk]]) 09:49, 17 February 2016 (UTC)

[[File:Ambox notice.svg|link=|25px|alt=Information icon]] There is currently a discussion at [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents]] regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Citation spamming|Citation spamming]]. <!--Template:ANI-notice--> Thank you. <small style="border: 1px solid;padding:1px 3px;white-space:nowrap">'''[[User talk:IgnorantArmies|<font color="crimson">IgnorantArmies</font>]] [[User talk:IgnorantArmies|<font color="crimson">(talk)</font>]]'''</small> 09:58, 17 February 2016 (UTC)

== Citations and conflict of interest ==

Hi! I thought I'd give a bit more explanation as to what's going on with the ANI post and the above warning.

The long and short is that you've been adding links that do not appear to be reliable per Wikipedia's guidelines at [[WP:RS]], as they're both websites that sell tickets. As such, they're seen as e-commerce sites and are not considered to be an independent or reliable source. You do use some of the sites' blogs, but these are problematic since they're self-published and do not undergo any sort of editorial process that we can verify. I also found that the two websites appear to be run by the same business, given the nearly identical website design and the same office address.

You've been inserting links to these websites into articles on Wikipedia, in some cases even removing links in order to add links to these websites. Please be aware that not only can this be seen as disruptive, it can also be seen as spam and can lead to you getting blocked from editing. From what I can see, this appears to be your sole or primary reason for being here. Your edits also give off the strong impression that you're likely someone who was hired or otherwise asked to add links to this business on Wikipedia, given your above actions and the PK in your username and one of the ticket websites. If you were hired, you need to disclose this up front as a [[WP:COI|conflict of interest]]. I'll post the information about that in a moment.

I'm giving you an official warning: continuing to add these websites to articles will be seen as spam and inserting more material will result in you getting blocked from editing, possibly permanently. I also have to warn you that repeatedly adding these links also runs the risk of the sites getting put on Wikipedia's [[WP:SPB|spam blacklist]].

== Managing a conflict of interest ==
[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, SalmanSaleemPK. We [[Wikipedia:Welcoming committee/Welcome to Wikipedia|welcome]] your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things [[Special:Contributions/SalmanSaleemPK|you have written about]] on Wikipedia, you may have a [[conflict of interest]] (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the '''[[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest|conflict of interest guideline]]''' and [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations|FAQ for organizations]] for more information. In particular, please:

*'''avoid editing or creating''' articles related to you and your circle, your organization, its competitors, projects or products;
* instead '''propose changes''' on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{tl|request edit}} template);
* when discussing affected articles, '''disclose''' your COI (see [[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#Declaring an interest|WP:DISCLOSE]]);
*'''avoid linking''' to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see [[Wikipedia:Spam|WP:SPAM]]);
*'''exercise great caution''' so that you do not violate Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Core content policies|content policies]].

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 [[Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure|WP:PAID]]).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view]], [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|sourcing]] and [[Wikipedia:Autobiography|autobiographies]].
