My talkpage is not for paid editors. Here and at Talk:Service delivery platform you have admitting to being a paid editor, so I'm not going to help you. For reference, I don't have the time to adopt people anyway. Joseph2302 (talk) 21:47, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

Please do not delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, as you did at Talk:Service delivery platform. Such edits are disruptive and appear to be vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Don't remove talkpage comments, as you did here. Joseph2302 (talk) 21:47, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for the heads-up on edits and experimenting. I'll use the sandbox and won't engage in any further edits on the delivery services platform talk page. Hankypanky789 (talk) 15:25, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

How do I find an editor to help me edit my first article? I'd like to make sure all the necessary elements are included, and I've already reviewed the "create your first article" page, as well as articles on notability, reliable sources, and the correct tone to use in the article.
If I believe I have a conflict of interest, can I still publish pages/submit articles for review?
Looking to avoid trouble.. Very new to this and already got scolded once for accidentally editing a page I hadn't even realized I'd edited.
Thanks!
- I guess I could help/adopt you. Need any specific thing? Also, we strongly suggest not to make articles that you have a conflict of interest in, because you might not use a neutral point of view. Dat GuyTalkContribs 16:43, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. 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:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
- 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.
Thank you. Dat GuyTalkContribs 16:55, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Xavient Information Systems, from its old location at User:CommsPro123/sandbox. This is because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. APerson (talk!) 18:36, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

I'm working on finding sources for a new article and within Wikipedia's guidelines, read that press releases issued by the company the page is being developed for are not acceptable, since they are not "independent sources." However, are press releases from a separate organization that mention the company acceptable?
For example, if I am writing a page about Blue Elephants Inc., I will not use any press releases put out by Blue Elephant. But if Google puts out a news release mentioning Blue Elephant and its products, am I allowed to cite that release as a source?
Thanks,
