Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Robert Greenwald has been reverted. Your edit here to Robert Greenwald was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BowyddQi_bQ, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mn_yKqf-kOI) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 21:05, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

Help me!
Please help me with... First, want to disclose that I work for the organization I am asking about (Polaris Project) Our entry is out-of-date and does not accurately reflect the work of the org. I am not asking to remove the controversial pieces - just to reflect the work. Is there a way to do that?

 * I have put the required declaration on your use page. Please take a moment to read our guideline on conflicts of interest. We also request that before you add or remove anything beyond basic information that you use an edit request. This can be done by putting the request edit template on the article's talk page. Please note that everything on Wikipedia should be sourced to published, independent, sources that have editorial oversight and a history of fact checking. As a COI editor you should also pay careful attention to the words you choose to use. We have a strict policy against any attempt to advertise or to insert puffery into our articles. Something that may be useful in this area is our words to watch page. If you want more help, stop by the Teahouse, Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance.

Edits to Polaris Project page
Hello Carenbenj. I appreciate your good faith disclosure that you have an affiliation with the Polaris Project. However, I caution you about making edits directly to the page that remove information and sources critical of the organization, not matter how strongly you feel about the matter. You can instead use the talk page to propose changes or request edits, as the user above recommends. In particular, if Polaris' position regarding the decriminalization of sex work has changed (as your edit seems to imply), you might post a link on the talk page to the page or site that references the current policy, which other editors could then use in the article itself. Thanks. SONORAMA (talk) 06:27, 6 January 2023 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did at Polaris Project, you may be blocked from editing. ''You have a conflict of interest with the subject of this article and should not be editing the article directly. Please instead make an edit request on the article talk page.''
