Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Sleepy Sun. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose their editing privileges on that page. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges. Thank you.

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at User talk:76.103.168.75. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 06:06, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding Sleepy Sun, facts on Wikipedia must be verifiable in reliable published sources. Wikpedia is not the place for obscure facts that haven't been published anywhere. Binksternet (talk) 06:08, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If you are connected to someone or something you have written about (a few examples are writing about yourself, your business, your band, a member of your family, your client) then you should be aware that Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline discourages you from writing about that subject. The main reason for that is that experience over the years indicates that editors with such a connection to a subject they are writing about are likely to find it very difficult, or even impossible, to stand back from their writing and see how it will look from the detached perspective of an outsider, so that they are likely to write in ways that look promotional to others, even if they sincerely think they are writing in a neutral way. Also, if your editing forms all or part of work for which you are paid, whether as an employee, as a contractor, or in any other capacity, the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use require you to state who is paying you, and what your connection to them is. (To avoid the possibility of a surprisingly common misunderstanding, editing is part of paid work if it is done as part of normal employment or as part of a work to a contract, whether or not a specific payment earmarked for editing Wikipedia is made.) Also, so far you have made just two user talk page posts, and both of them were somewhat uncivil to the editors to whom they were addressed, and you have likewise been uncivil in an edit summary. If you think someone is mistaken, or if you disagree with them about some aspect of editing, explain your disagreement in a friendly and civil way. Remember that almost everyone here is editing in good faith, believing that what they do is in the interest of improving the encyclopaedia. Editors who are persistently uncivil, or who make any kind of personal attack on other editors, may be blocked from editing by administrators, which I hope won't happen to you.
