Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, Ltgdougherty68. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Walt Whitman Bridge, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. 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, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
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 must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Klaun (talk) 04:07, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

January 2018[edit]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Walt Whitman Bridge ‎. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. The person in charge of the maintenance crew of the bridge is not encyclopedic and does not need mentioned in the article. Further, based on your username, it appears that it's your own name or the name of a family member you're trying to add. —C.Fred (talk) 04:09, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop making disruptive edits, as you did at Walt Whitman Bridge.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Acroterion (talk) 04:18, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Walt Whitman Bridge shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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 BRD 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 your 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.

Walt Whitman Bridge edits[edit]

Hi Ltgdougherty68. I saw your post at User talk:C.Fred#Walt Whiteman Bridge and have already responded there, so I won't repost all of that here. Since you are a new editor, you might not be familiar with Wikipedia's various policies and guidelines. My suggestion to you is to use Talk:Walt Whitman Bridge to discuss the information you want to add to the bridge article and see if you can establish a consensus for including it. Even though you probably mean well, you have been engaging in what is commonly referred to as edit warring by continuing trying to re-add the disputed content to article. Your best chance of getting such information added to the articles is as follows: (1) to provide a citation to a published reliable source so that it can be verified and (2) convincing others through article talk page discussion that mentioning the commanding officer is encyclopedically relevant. Adding unsourced content, particularly content about living persons, to articles is one of the things that the Wikipedia Community does not take lightly, so hopefully you will decide to discuss instead of force your changes into the article. If you continue to do the latter, your account will likely end up being blocked by an administrator to prevent any further disruption. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:39, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
