Bliss (image)

Hi Drm310,

I saw your comments about the Bliss image. I'm new to editing in Wikipedia obviously. After scanning the notes about referencing, I'm not sure what to do because I don't have any official documents that I was the designer who chose that image and named it. I worked on the Windows shell team years ago on XP and I only happen to think about this when a former co-worker recently told me someone from NPR was wanting to know who picked it and he remembered it was me. The wiki article assumes it was an engineer which back then is understandable because ux designers were not as, let's say, recognized for their work. I'll have to see if I have anything that makes me a reliable source but not sure what else I can do. If you have thoughts, I'd appreciate it. Thanks. Jenshet (talk) 22:41, 21 February 2016 (UTC)

@Jenshet: An online or printed reliable source that mentions you by name would merit your inclusion in the article. However, one's own unpublished personal knowledge and experience (referred to here as original research) is not permitted. I can only suggest search engines for online material... you would know better than me if there are any printed works that mention you. Best of luck with your search. --Drm310 (talk) 18:35, 25 February 2016 (UTC)

Then it was all removed. Please let me know what you want me to do, but I will not allow this.

Thankyou.

@Pauljones9005: Hello Kenny. My response will include links to relevant policies and guidelines.

I removed the information from the article because it removed information that was properly sourced and replaced it with unsourced content. Wikipedia requires that all information in an article is verifiable by citing reliable sources. Unacceptable material includes one's own unpublished personal knowledge (referred to here as original research) or material citing self-published content (e.g. blogs, social media) as sources.

Wikipedia also highly discourages persons from editing articles about themselves. There are ways to deal with problems in an article about you. The most recommended way is to propose changes on the article's talk page (Talk:Kenny Habul) and allow other uninvolved editors to review, discuss and make the changes. In clear-cut cases of vandalism, libellous content or uncontroversial changes (e.g. marital status, current employer, place of birth, etc.), then it's OK to make changes yourself, but make note of them on the talk page.

Just also be aware that you do not own the article about you. Articles are built by consensus and no single editor (even if they are the article's subject) can dictate its content. The goal is to make a high-quality article, backed by high-quality third-party sources and written from a neutral point of view.

I do have a concern about the account you're using. It was used to create the article SunEnergy1, and the account name suggests that it is someone else who works for that company. Please be aware that Wikipedia accounts cannot be shared, and evidence of shared use can be grounds to block an account.

Finally, When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when. --Drm310 (talk) 18:35, 25 February 2016 (UTC)

@Guylepage3: Small world, eh? I'm a Campbell Collegiate grad myself. :-)

Thanks for providing your disclosure, too. That will certainly show everyone that you're editing in good faith. Best of luck. --Drm310 (talk) 20:48, 10 March 2016 (UTC)

@Drm310: Haha. Campbell. I had a few close friends go there. Thanks again. --Guy Lepage (talk) 21:06, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
