User talk:AdrianGGilbert

Welcome!
Hello, AdrianGGilbert, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you edited 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. 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 any other 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 firm 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.)

Here are some pages that you might find helpful: 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! Dougweller (talk) 15:43, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi
I'm pretty sure you are Adrian, but we need to make sure there's no impersonation. You can either email me with some official address I can confirm or email info-enwikimedia.org where one of my colleagues who also respond to such email can deal with this. We do get impersonation from time to time. I've edited your article a bit, adding links where I could find them, removing some stuff that didn't seem relevant about the bookstores. Lack of references is a bit of a problem, especially for a WP:BLP (you should read that by the way). Especially for the yoga and leaving your job for ethical reasons. As for conflict of interest, mild editing of your article is fine, anything that might be at all controversial you need to suggest on the talk page and get consensus for it.
