Welcome!
Hello, Ehm2233, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and has been or will be removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or in other media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. Additionally, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Materialscientist (talk) 22:10, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Groundhog Day (musical), without citing a reliable source using an inline citation that clearly supports the material. The burden is on the person wishing to keep in the material to meet these requirements, as a necessary (but not always sufficient) condition. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Mlpearc Phone ( open channel ) 16:11, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Danny Rubin. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Mlpearc Phone ( open channel ) 16:11, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Ehm2233. 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, clients, 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 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. S0091 (talk) 15:24, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

CMX Systems
I got your email about editing CMX and yes, you do have a COI so should make WP:edit requests. The best approach for edit requests is start with a small change. I also suggest, as much as possible, rather than using your book(s) directly as a source is to use other sources that reference your book(s) (either written about it or cited it). That keeps it somewhat arms-length. See also WP:SELFCITE and WP:SELFPUB. You can use the Edit Request Wizard to make the request. @ScottishFinnishRadish, you review edit requests, right? If so, do you have any other guidance. This editor is an WP:EXPERT who once worked for CMX and has written at least one book about non-linear editing, which includes information about CMX.

 * I don't handle that many COI requests, but I've done enough to give some advice here. You want to make sure that edits you're submitting are complete with references and the exact prose you'd like to use to make things easier for the request patrollers. Also, when it comes to your references, it is helpful to provide a short quote from the source if it's not available freely online, and if the sources you're using are not well known it's helpful to provide an indication that they are reliable in the context of the edit. This can be done by showing a book review or similar from a reliable source that demonstrates that they consider the work reliable. Lastly, do everything in your power to avoid any flowery or even vaguely promotional sounding language. COI edit requests face extra scrutiny for WP:NPOV, and using the most neutral language possible will help in getting the request implemented. If you have any questions, feel free to give me a ping and I'll take a look. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 18:35, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
