Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Wartburg Adult Care Community has been reverted.
Your edit here to Wartburg Adult Care Community was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://www.facebook.com/thewartburg) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 21:41, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Wartburg Adult Care Community. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. I've reverted your changes because of the promotional language you used - for instance, "Wartburg employees brought calm, comfort, and clinical excellence to this community faithfully and with great courage". Tacyarg (talk) 18:27, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

Thank you. I am new to Wiki and just learning the protocols. JJ JJBoschetti (talk) 17:45, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, JJBoschetti. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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, clients, 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 Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming);
• 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. MB 04:18, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

MB Thank you. I am new to Wikipedia, and have been trying to understand how to edit, write copy, etc. I know the owner of Wartburg and have offered to help to make edits and corrections for accuracy on his page, and also this allows me to learn a new skill- uploading images, and understanding page formatting, etc. JJB JJBoschetti (talk) 18:05, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

@JJBoschetti: This might seem like nitpicking over semantics, but the article about Wartburg Adult Care Community is not "his". The owner of the subject organization does not own or control the content of the Wikipedia article - no one does. Wikipedia is a collaborative project where anyone can edit any page at any time, and its fundamental editorial model is consensus.

As you have a personal relationship with the subject of the article, you have a conflict of interest. As such, we advise you not to edit the article directly. Instead, we recommend that you suggest changes in the form of edit requests on the article talk page, Talk:Wartburg Adult Care Community. That will allow uninvolved editors to review your proposed changes before either posting them, or suggesting revisions.

Note that if you are receiving compensation for your editing (monetary or otherwise), then you would be considered a paid editor and required to disclose this information. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 03:46, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

I am new to Wikipedia, but it seems interesting to me that whatever content is being added to any topic on Wiki, that all of the contributors to all of the articles on Wiki would have no relationship at all in any way with the topic or the source of an article. My purpose is to add "facts" with the supporting of the proper citatons, and now that I understand better, get rid of any promotional sounding content. If I am able to submit a factual statement- such as the opening of a building- with support from non-biased news source- wouldn't that then be irrelevant as to whether I know the owner or not? Many thanks. I look forward to your opinion, and thank you for your advice. I will look to learn about edit requests. JJ JJBoschetti (talk) 17:10, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

The experience of the editing community over the years is that when an editor has an external relationship with the subject they are editing, it can undermine their objectivity. Even well-intentioned editors can be subject to unconscious bias; the conflict of interest page explains it better and in more detail than I can. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 21:25, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

Thank you JJBoschetti (talk) 16:54, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

MB, can you explain your msg: rmv el, not in el section? Thank you. I am trying to learn and understand wiki page formatting. Just want to be clear about the external link you are asking me to remove. I appreciate your advice. I am learning how o use Wiki, and for a new user there are many nuances. JJ JJBoschetti (talk) 01:50, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

You added an external link into the name/title on the infobox and I removed. External links, with few exceptions, are allowed only in the external links section at the end. As you have been told, you shouldn't be editing this article directly. MB 02:41, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

if i have an edit suggestion, please clarify how and where I make the suggestion. Your earlier comment was not clear to me. TY. jj JJBoschetti (talk) 16:58, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

This was explained above in the Managing a COI section. The second bullet says to go to the article Talk Page, and use {{edit request}}. You should try that with the change you suggest below. No one will be alerted to that here. MB 17:42, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

ok thank you. jj JJBoschetti (talk) 18:35, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. MB 17:23, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

MB, thank you.

I will also look over the protocols this weekend. I am a writer and proofreader- so I am not looking to promote, but to insert information for facts and correctness. For example, I changed the campus site from 36 to 34 acres. Also, replaced the new president - David Gentner, with the old president.

Many thanks, JJB. JJBoschetti (talk) 18:16, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

Looking to add this to the main article:

In 2021 and 2022, Wartburg, among other organizations, were recognized by Newsweek and US News, for their work in coping with the pandemic for residents in their communities. JJBoschetti (talk) 17:03, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

please, no forum shopping

I reverted your edit to Wikipedia talk:Talk page guidelines per WP:NOTAFORUM. The post you've already made at Talk:Wartburg Adult Care Community is the appropriate way to address your concerns. I will emphasize what you've been told above about your apparent conflict of interest: Wikipedia does not care what Wartburg has to say about our article, nor are we concerned with the truth of the matter. Chris Troutman (talk) 00:36, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for your kind reply. I am a new user and learning the nuances of wiki. I was under the impression that Wiki posts were based on facts which should equal some semblance of truth. any additions i submit have independent citations to back them up.
