Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed maintenance templates from Simon Tian. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Please see Help:Maintenance template removal for further information on when maintenance templates should or should not be removed. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Craftsman2116. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Simon Tian, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 15:25, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Got it. I hereby affirm that I have no external relationship to Simon Tian or his companies. Craftsman2116 (talk) 15:41, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Craftsman2116, if you have no connection to Tian or his companies, could you explain why the only content you're editing is his page, and you've removed the phrase whilst calling the device a "weirdo wrist computer" and the maintenance tags again? Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 09:19, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I am simply a customer who ordered a SIM card from Fonus and have been using its service for many months. Craftsman2116 (talk) 10:22, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, but even if you aren't related to the subject of the article, you still need to comply with Wikipedia policy. Wikipedia presents articles from a neutral point of view, and removing critical phrases without good reason isn't appropriate. Nor is removing maintenance tags when the problem isn't fixed - an interview is still a primary source. Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 10:26, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay got it. Craftsman2116 (talk) 11:58, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that in this edit to Simon Tian, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 12:07, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I’ve removed the primary source in the article (the interview). Let me know if the maintenance tags may be removed now as it seems the problem is fixed. Craftsman2116 (talk) 12:19, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
