User talk:Fastboy18

January 2017
Hello, Fastboy18. 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 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. Kendall-K1 (talk) 23:33, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:


 * User contributions
 * Recent changes
 * Watchlists
 * Revision differences
 * IRC channels
 * Related changes
 * New pages list
 * Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting. Thanks! Kendall-K1 (talk) 22:21, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion
There is currently a discussion at Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. Kendall-K1 (talk) 22:23, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

Manulife
There is a discussion at Talk:Manulife concerning the Awards section. Please join the discussion there and generate consensus instead of simply reverting me with no explanation. Kendall-K1 (talk) 22:13, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

Manulife COI
Do you have any sort of connection to, or other conflict of interest concerning Manulife? Kendall-K1 (talk) 22:14, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

All banks have sponsorship and awards sections. This is not out of the ordinary. Delay was because I've never used the talk - sorry for not addressing sooner. (Fastboy18 (talk) 15:21, 13 January 2017 (UTC))
 * Fastboy18, you didn't answer Kendall-K1's question.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:51, 13 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Bbb23 No conflict here. Just looking for easy edits. (Fastboy18 (talk) 17:35, 13 January 2017 (UTC)) (Fastboy18 (talk) 17:28, 13 January 2017 (UTC))
 * It's not a good idea not to disclose a COI when you have one. It can get you into more trouble than you already are given your history at Wikipedia.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:45, 13 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Fastbot18, it is very obvious you have a conflict of interest. It is helpful if you declare it and work with the community. Btw, I noticed that you are now adding a bunch of non notable rankings to other articles. Please don't do that, I had to clean up after you. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 19:43, 13 January 2017 (UTC)


 * "All banks have sponsorship and awards sections" is not a reason to include these sections. See WP:OTHERCONTENT. Unfortunately these sorts of promotional sections pop up faster than they can be deleted. Something like a Nobel Prize is obviously worthy of inclusion. Most awards and sponsorships are not. A good test to apply (and I think this is actual policy but I couldn't quote it to you right now) is whether the award has been covered in an independent, reliable source (see WP:RS). If the only source you can cite is a press release from the company or the awards organization, then the award is not notable enough to include on Wikipedia.

Kendall-K1 - I accept that - thanks for raising. (Fastboy18 (talk) 13:45, 16 January 2017 (UTC))

Help me!
I'm just learning how to use the talk lines. Will clarify the Manulife edits with Kendall-K1 now. Thank you and sorry for the confusion!


 * Welcome to Wikipedia! You can find help regarding how to use talk pages at Help:Talk pages. Also, you can reach out to on their talk page if you need to discuss something with them. Feel free to reach out again by placing another Template:help me on this talk page (with a help request) or by leaving a message on my talk page. Have a great day! --JustBerry (talk) 9:41 am, Today (UTC−5)

Help me!
Help me clarify and undo Kendall-K1's revision of awards and sponsorship here. She seems to have now reported and questioned my integrity now me because of it... On the Manulife page. (Fastboy18 (talk) 15:48, 13 January 2017 (UTC))

 * Hi Fastboy18. Other users are not going to help you become involved in an edit war - what needs to happen now is a discussion on the article's talkpage over whether or not to include the section. If you would like to get other editors involved, you may want to consider using the third opinion process. However, you should not add the disputed material to the page again until a clear consensus has been established on the article's talk page. Yunshui 雲 水 16:11, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
