Hello, I'm Mcmatter. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Peter W. Galbraith without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! - McMatter ^(talk)/_(contrib) 22:59, 19 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did to Peter W. Galbraith, without verifying it by citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Please refrain from removing sourced information and using misleading edit summaries to avoid detection - McMatter ^(talk)/_(contrib) 23:25, 19 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You're in the news

Just found this news story via this week's Signpost and thought you might like to know about it - you are mentioned several times. Best — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 23:59, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Allow me to add that, although I've appreciated your contributions and high-quality, hard-to-find sources at Peter W. Galbraith, we have a policy which you should be aware of if you are, in fact, personally or professionally connected to Mr. Galbraith as the story suggests you are.

If you are, you'd be considered to have a WP:Conflict of interest, specifically a personal connection COI. In this case we'd ask you to disclose your relationship (although you would have no obligation at all to disclose your actual identity) and refrain from editing the article directly, instead suggesting changes via WP:Edit requests on the talk page for third-party editors to implement. (You and I have been informally doing the last part a little already).

Thanks and looking forward to collaborating further, FourViolas (talk) 03:08, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
