Alexander Waugh[edit]

Greetings.

I would imagine, by your user name, that you are Alexander Waugh. Also, you have been editing pages related to Mr. Waugh. I recommend that you read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. The Wikipedia Community considers it highly inappropriate to edit pages on yourself. Additionally, in the past, there have been negative stories in the press about notable individuals editing pages about themselves.

If you are not Mr. Waugh, then your account will be blocked for impersonation. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me on my user talk page. Thank you. --Jeffrey O. Gustafson - Shazaam! - <*> 10:52, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Your message[edit]

Mr. Waugh,

In regards to the deletion of your article, it appears that community consensus is leaning towards keeping it, so it will likely stay, as, even though the drafting of the article was in violation of our standards, the subject of the article is notable enough for inclusion.

As for your other contributions, some I have kept as they are factual and neutral. Others I have reverted because they were precisely the opposite, especially the edits where you removed sourced material critical of one of your family members. It is never a good idea to remove sourced material here without first discussing it on the article's talk page, especially if you have a stake in the outcome or a clear conflict of interest.

We welcome your further contributions to our project, we just ask that prospective editors familiarize themselves with our policies, especially when it comes to matters of conflict of interest. If you have any further concerns, please feel free to ask. --Jeffrey O. Gustafson - Shazaam! - <*> 17:39, 2 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Reverted[edit]

In response to your concerns about the factual accuracy of the article on Auberon Waugh, I have removed the section that you objected to, as the first link provided does not directly name Waugh, thus putting all of those claims into question. Thanks for your time and patience in clearing that up. --Jeffrey O. Gustafson - Shazaam! - <*> 12:24, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for acknowledging that Mr. Waugh's objections were correct. --BenJonson~commonswiki (talk) 23:47, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
