I have typed in the corrections I immediately see on the DGM page. I don't know how the process of verification works. As DGM is a company run by Robert Fripp and me, we can both confirm in writing that what I have said is correct if necessary. Companies house would also confirm the share ownership. I only became aware of the faults because someone recently submitted an article on me and they were shocked that it was rejected. In fact, that is when we heard about it as they contacted us to see i there were factual errors. Which there were not. The problems were factual errors in some existing articles, which meant that they could not reference correctly. So DGM please needs correcting

Hello, I'm Theroadislong. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Discipline Global Mobile, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Conflict of interest policy
Hello, DavidGRSingleton. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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 ensuring their edits are verified by 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:


 * 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.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * 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. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

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. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  18:29, 20 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your messages. Can you please therefore tell me how to rectify the situation. The facts are simple - There are a huge number of factual errors in the article on my company, which are extremely damaging on a personal and business level. I am not demanding any form of editorial oversight, but I do have a right to demand that things are factually correct. I have tried correcting them myself (which you point out I should not do as I am "close to the subject") - what do I do? — Preceding unsigned comment added by DavidGRSingleton (talk • contribs)
 * The best way is to provide a reliably published source on the talk page of the article with a suggestion/request that a third party review and incorporate into the article as appropriate. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  19:04, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
