September 2020[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights. Edits to Wikipedia, such as your edit to the page John Maxwell Hamilton, may not contain material from copyrighted sources unless used with permission. It is almost never okay to copy extensive text out of a book or website and paste it into a Wikipedia article with little or no alteration, though you can clearly and briefly quote copyrighted text in the right circumstances. Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:

If you still have questions, there is the teahouse, or you can click here to ask a question on your talk page and someone will be along to answer it shortly. As you get started, you may find the pages below to be helpful.

I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if you want to get in touch with me. Again, welcome! — Diannaa (talk) 09:57, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Further reading"[edit]

Please go back through the edits you made today and remove the URL to https://lsupress.org/books/detail/manipulating-the-masses/. In addition, you've added the same book as "further reading" in multiple articles. Please make sure the book has a significant amount of information on each article that you added it to, or remove it. "Further reading" should be to books that provide in-depth detailed information to supplement the article, not to any book that mentions the article topic. Also, do not add it as a ref unless it's actually being used as a reference for specific information in the article. Schazjmd (talk) 00:59, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding Manipulating the Masses to multiple articles. It is not plausible that the book provides more detailed coverage of the subject of the article for all of those biographies. Your edits appear to be bookspam. Schazjmd (talk) 01:22, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, Xtinageorge. 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 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 WP:Spam);
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. DuncanHill (talk) 02:07, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Bookspam[edit]

Please stop adding Manipulating the Masses to multiple articles. It is not plausible that the book provides more detailed coverage of the subject of the article for all of those biographies. Your edits appear to be bookspam. I have reverted many of these edits for this reason. Doctormatt (talk) 20:10, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

August 2021[edit]

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Schazjmd (talk) 20:33, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Drmies (talk) 23:05, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
