Nectar Design

Dino,

I am affiliated with the company Nectar Design, a company that made a series of edits to its Wikipedia page on August 9th of which you reversed most. I'm approaching you in good faith because there are factual errors on the page, as well as some relevant additions in terms of the notability of the company that I believe are relevant to the page. I would like to provide someone with the pertinent information and source material to make some necessary changes given my COI.

Would you say that this is the best course of action? Please advise, and thank you. Terry the Polar Bear (talk) 01:25, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the note. The best approach, per WP:COI, is to post your proposed edit at Talk:Nectar Design along with the corresponding references. Another editor will post the edit for you or make comments. Good luck, 72Dino (talk) 02:19, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

your response

thanks so much for your response, so exciting to add current information at my first attempt to update a wiki page. Your response was a bit odd, as your question was answered if you had read the updated text. i see you've had it deleted, so i will enjoy navigating wikipedia to add this current vital, factual information back to the page.

Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia! The standard template about your edit didn't fit perfectly so it could have been confusing. You added content regarding a living person, so I recommend you read the Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons policy carefully. You need references from reliable sources per the Wikipedia:Verifiability policy. The article about the web site may not even be the best place for content about this individual. You may want to start a discussion at Talk:ProtectMarriage.com to see if your edit should be included. I will also send you a welcome notice that spells out some of the policies, etc. on Wikipedia that I think you will find helpful. Happy editing!

joseph smith

hi, thanks for bringing to my attention that I need to leave a reason for editing a page. i didn't know that. I looked up Joseph Smith and noticed that the very first line was Joseph Smith was 'a big fat liar'. I believe this is a subjective remark that needed to be removed. I noticed when editing that the line in question was hidden by code in the first half of the sentence, so I deleted that. Hope this clears up what happened. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Robjohnson73 (talk • contribs) 20:02, 28 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Those edit summaries come in handy. What it looks like happened was that a bot saw the liar remark and reverted it. Your edit actually removed "an American religious leader and", so that is what I restored. It looks like everything is back to normal after the vandalism that you were trying to correct. Thanks, 72Dino (talk) 20:08, 28 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Shelby Mustang

RE: 16:02, 28 August 2012 (UTC) - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shelby_Mustang#Unique_Performance

The post made was an addition to the Original Existing Unreferenced Bold post (listed below) to clear up confusion based upon the namesake of the product and the person in question;

It should be noted that the car featured in the movie and the subsequent vehicles produced by Unique are in fact not considered Shelby’s by any standard.

The edit in question (listed below) that has been removed which did not remove existing content but only to clarify the statement of the original posting;

It should be noted that the car featured in the movie and the subsequent vehicles produced by Unique are in fact not considered Shelby’s (In reference to being officially made/created/modified by the Brand/Make 'Shelby' and not the personal ownership of Carroll Shelby the person) by any standard.

The original statement did not have a reference and thus should not be removed. The clarification statement which has been added did not have a reference as it did not need one. It was referencing the existing statement. The original statement was preexisting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.188.74.143 (talk) 07:59, 29 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not clear what you are asking here. I removed the content because it was unclear, did not have a reference, and its formatting violated MOS:TEXT and WP:OPED. Are you saying the vehicles manufactured by Unique Performance are not considered "real Shelbys" by SAAC or vintage racing or concours organizations? Adding a reference may help clarify and verify the edit. 72Dino (talk) 16:39, 29 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Revert

I've reverted your edit - I saw what you saw but it didn't make any sense so I dug further. The guy does have an account: Special:Contributions/Korentop and: User_talk:Korentop. Don't know why it came up bad at first, for both of us....99.102.212.191 (talk) 13:20, 30 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Spent a little bit of WP:BOLD and corrected the registered user's sig...99.102.212.191 (talk) 13:35, 30 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
