Please do not add unsourced content, as you did to SAI Quiet Supersonic Transport. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. BilCat (talk) 22:51, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

Hello Avtechno. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article SAI Quiet Supersonic Transport, 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 following the 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:


 * 1) 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.
 * 2) 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.
 * 3) Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * 4) 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. BilCat (talk) 22:53, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

Explanation
I understand from your edit history that you are connected in some way with the QSST project. Unfortunately, that means you have a conflict of interest, as detailed above. In addition, the materail you have been adding is considered Original research, as it is first-hand knowledge, which is not accepted on WP. If you company desires to let the world know that it is still working on the QSST, then it needs to issue a press release. If that release is picked up in the major media or in industry periodicals, then we can cite those sources. I hope that helps you better understand the situation, because if you continue to add the info without citing reliable sources, you run the risk of this account being blocked. Since there is no source for the project being cancelled, I will remove that information from the articles. Thanks. - BilCat (talk) 08:01, 19 August 2011 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Avtechno. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page SAI Quiet Supersonic Transport, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. BilCat (talk) 20:03, 4 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Dear BilCat-I'm not sure who you are, but i appreciate your interest to make sure Wikipedia content is verified and correct. However, the version you keep reverting the subject WO page is full of inaccuracies for which as owner of SAI I have the obligation to make sure what is depicted on my company's project under "SAI Quiet Supersonic Transport" is factual and correct, which is not a COI. Please refer to SAI's website which has current information about the company and project, which post dates the incorrect version you keep reverting too! Thanks!

 * As the owner of the company in question, you are considered to have a conflict of interest even if your edits are not promotional in nature. This applies in any case that an editor writes about something with which they have a significant connection. You can place an edit request on the article's talk page, but should generally avoid editing the article itself. Note that the information will still need to be supported by reliable and preferably independent sources. TornadoLGS (talk) 20:27, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
