User talk:Coreycrowder

Welcome!
Hello, Coreycrowder, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you edited was Corey Crowder (singer), which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or any other editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One firm rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! Walter Görlitz (talk) 15:01, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Simplified Manual of Style


 * Now that I have a few minutes to actually reply in prose let me explain a few reasons why I removed, or in Wikipedia terms, "reverted", some of your changes.
 * We can't use your site's biography page for two reasons. It's both a self-published and a primary source. What's needed is a secondary source or third-party source that states those things. That way we know it's "important", or "notable" in Wikipedia terms. Without that, it just looks like self-serving statements. Ultimately, who you've written for or toured with is not really encyclopedic unless it's popped-up on someone's radar too.
 * References should not be removed, nor should the material they're referencing. I fixed the one that doesn't go anywhere.
 * There's a bigger issue though, based on Wikipedia's terms, you're not sufficiently notable. I'll flag the article for that but take a look at WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO to see if you can find some reliable sources to support the criteria there.
 * Overall,.
 * Let me know if you have any questions. Walter Görlitz (talk) 05:45, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Corey Crowder (singer). Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Walter Görlitz (talk) 15:23, 7 January 2014 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
