Lower East Side and Meatpacking District, Manhattan
Hello, Autonomousmedia. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Beyond My Ken (talk) 19:55, 13 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Please do not promote your newsletter by deleting links to your competitors, as you did on Meatpacking District, Manhattan. If you continue to edit in ways that are promotional, in violation of WP:PROMO, I shall bring the matter to the attention of Wikipedia's admins. Beyond My Ken (talk) 07:24, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not an advertising service for logo shirts, local publications, the creator's own opinions about their own product being "#1" or "primary", or any other marketing. Please stop adding external links to Wikipedia or making any edits related to products or services which you have agreements with or other involvement in, such as those involving the Lower East Side or Meatpacking District, Manhattan. This is now your third warning on your talk page, not counting the comments made about your links when your edits were undone. You should be aware that continued spamming often results in your account being blocked; in addition, spamming on Wikipedia often draws the attention of blacklists to lower the acceptance of content on the web that links to spammed sites. You may find Plain and simple conflict of interest guide helpful. Thank you. --Closeapple (talk) 04:52, 23 September 2014 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Lower East Side. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. &mdash;  MusikAnimal talk 22:44, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for advertising or promotion. From your contributions, this seems to be your only purpose. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice:. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. ... disco spinster   talk  22:46, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
