[edit]If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
- editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
- participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
- linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam); and,
- avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Thank you. DreamGuy (talk) 14:49, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Smiley face murders. While objective prose about products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Thank you. If you keep adding this stuff I am going to regard it as vandalism. Please stop. Padillah (talk) 12:03, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
You're being discussed at the Wikipedia Conflict of interest Noticeboard
[edit]Hello Csymons70. See WP:COIN#SPA Promoting self-published book on conspiracy theory, where you can add your own comment. I caution you against proposing a specific person as being responsible for these crimes, if they have not been officially charged by police. This is the type of action that is forbidden by our WP:Biographies of living persons policy, which administrators do enforce with blocks. A further problem is your adding a mention of your own book, which seems to be self-published. See WP:SPS. EdJohnston (talk) 15:00, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
Your recent edits
[edit]Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 17:36, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit]{{unblock|Your reason here}}
below. You have been revert-warring on Smiley face murders to insert self-promotional material. Since you have a conflict of interest, I strongly suggest that you wait for consensus of the other editors on the Talk page before making any further changes to that article.
