This is your only warning; if you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Drmies (talk) 20:09, 29 May 2017 (UTC)


 * I have made a good addition to Wikipedia why you have reverted it. Calling it spam answer me Arslanagency21 (talk) 20:20, 29 May 2017 (UTC)
 * [copied from random section on my talk page] It is not a good addition: you are advertising (in grammatically deficient English) Agency21 which, given your username, is maybe not a surprise. Drmies (talk) 20:22, 29 May 2017 (UTC)


 * In response to this: because you have a conflict of interest, you should not edit the Real estate in Pakistan article at all. As for other articles, you can summarize, paraphrase (do not plagiarize), and cite a professionally-published mainstream academic or journalistic source that does not have anything to do with your company or your competitors.

 * Arslanagency21: I saw the same thing Ian.thomson did and was coming here to say much the same thing. But maybe I can explain it a bit more clearly. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, not a business directory. That means we try so far as possible to just report what reliable sources have published on the topic. So the answer to your question, leaving aside the conflict of interest issue, is that you should add to any Wikipedia page only what you can cite to a respectable third-party source—for example, an article in a reputable newspaper or in an academic journal, or a non-self-published book, or a specialised encylopaedia, or a factual documentary film shown on a reputable television channel or at a film festival or in general release. And your edit should be a neutral summary of what those sources say. One of the reasons we strongly discourage conflict of interest editing, in fact, is that it's very hard to evaluate the sources and summarise them neutrally when one has a personal involvement in the issue. People professionally involved in an area of interest do, however, often know where to find sources; hence we encourage them to place the sources and make suggestions for changes to the article on its talk/discussion page.


 * I know Wikipedia has a steep learning curve. Precisely because anyone can edit, we have a lot of procedures and guidelines to ease the interaction of the very large number of very different people who contribute. We also have people who specialise in different things, which includes patrolling to find edits that break the rules or are simply not improvements (which includes poor English). Many editors spend a lot of their time fixing problems of various kinds. But one of our more obviously useful rules, given our size and given differences in editors' backgrounds and interests, is civility. You'll get more and kinder help if you refrain from demanding someone answer you. A word to the wise. Yngvadottir (talk) 01:11, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you Yngvadottir. Arslan, everything on Wikipedia needs to be based on reliable sources, and it needs to be relevant. I actually have my doubts about that article in the first place, which is why I deleted some content: such an article should probably be about larger developments, not about what some individual company has done, or what an individual state offers.

Welcome!
Hello, Arslanagency21, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed 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.&#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, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
 * The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Simplified Manual of Style

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, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! Yngvadottir (talk) 01:15, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
