User talk:Accurate70

May 2023
Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, Fae Ellington, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 02:31, 10 May 2023 (UTC)


 * I am Fae Ellington and I am correcting inaccuracies about me. Accurate70 (talk) 02:38, 10 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Perhaps but you still need to have proper secondary sourcing for your edits, and adding a list of things like this one, that's promotional editing. Drmies (talk) 03:09, 10 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Just to add to the other comment, here at Wikipedia we have a rule called "No original research". This means we don't report facts here that we ourselves discover on our own -- they have to be verifiable, from reliable sources. &mdash; Garrett W. {☎ ✍} 03:18, 10 May 2023 (UTC)

Welcome!
Hello, Accurate70, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Fae Ellington, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article.&#32;Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! Drmies (talk) 03:08, 10 May 2023 (UTC)
