Hello, I'm Helper202. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Helper202 (talk) 13:46, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

My contribution was NOT advertising. I added an actor to the cast of a movie that can be verified from the movie itself and other sources like IMDB. I insist that you add it back to the movie cast list. You removed my contribution without cause. CathyShires (talk) 13:50, 20 September 2020 (UTC)


 * You continue to add an actor with no Wikipedia article who played a very minor role. Wikipedia is not a venue for promotion. Helper202 (talk) 13:51, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

Really? A very minor role? Go ahead and do a Google search for the movie and click on the “cast” tab. Zack Shires is one of the few cast members listed on that tab. You have no idea what you are talking about. Do your research. CathyShires (talk) 13:54, 20 September 2020 (UTC)


 * Do you or do you not have a conflict of interest on the subject per the warning below? Helper202 (talk) 14:00, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

Potential conflict of interest
Hello, CathyShires. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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 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 WP: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. Helper202 (talk) 13:53, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
