Official bio
Hi -- I saw that you tried to replace the Narciso Rodriguez article with his official bio. That's not the way Wikipedia works. Wikipedia pages are written from a neutral point of view, and can't be copy-pasted from anywhere else. They're original pieces of writing that change over time. Since you work with Rodriguez and know a lot about him, you probably know some good verifiable sources of information, like magazine articles written about him. If you have information that you'd like to share, you could post it on the talk page of his article. -- -- Danny  ( talk ) 21:22, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

Your addition to Narciso Rodriguez has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images&mdash;you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Dr.  K.  07:13, 30 November 2016 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Caseycad. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Narciso Rodriguez, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:


 * avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
 * instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the request edit template);
 * when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

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).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Dr.  K.  16:18, 30 November 2016 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Narciso Rodriguez. Dr.  K.  18:57, 5 December 2016 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Narciso Rodriguez. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges. Thank you.

You cannot post copyright material on Wikipedia even if you are the copyright holder, unless special licensing permissions are in place. That is because Wikipedia aims to be freely distributable and copyable by anyone, and all content must have the appropriate documentation in place before that can happen. Please see donating copyrighted materials which explains how it works. Regardless of the copyright issue, we won't accept promotional material or content that's worded like an advertisement. Please don't add any more copyright material to this wiki. If you do, you will be blocked from editing. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 22:25, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
