Reverting disruptive edits
Hi, When you are reverting vandalism and other disruptive edits (for example, this one), could you make sure you add the relevant warning template to the talk page please? That way, if other editors come across disruption from the same source, they will know to escalate. You might find Twinkle useful for this. Thanks, Nzd   (talk)  16:34, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

ANI Experiences survey
The Wikimedia Foundation Community health initiative (led by the Safety and Support and Anti-Harassment Tools team) is conducting a survey for en.wikipedia contributors on their experience and satisfaction level with the Administrator’s Noticeboard/Incidents. This survey will be integral to gathering information about how this noticeboard works - which problems it deals with well, and which problems it struggles with.

The survey should take 10-20 minutes to answer, and your individual responses will not be made public. The survey is delivered through Google Forms. The privacy policy for the survey describes how and when Wikimedia collects, uses, and shares the information we receive from survey participants and can be found here:

Sandon School
Hello,

I work for the Sandon School and have been asked to upload the information that you removed. How do I add this without someone just removing it? I can reference all of the information back to our prospectus that is on our website and public information, but had not fished working on it before you removed it! Shame someone wasn't so quick to removed the inaccurate information on sex offenders which appeared on the page 2 days ago.

Please let me know what I have to do.

 * Before you do anything else, you should read Conflict of interest. Editing an article about your employer is generally a poor idea. My very very very strong suggestion to you, and to the person who told you to do this, is not to edit the article at all, in any form, for any reason.  Leave it to disinterested editors who can write about the subject neutrally.  -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 13:29, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

Even if it is factual and can be referenced by an official and reliable source? If this is not possible, how do we get the page completely removed? None of what was put on the page was copyright. There is no conflict of interest in putting factual information onto this page, there is no bias and no hidden agenda. For example, the information about the catchment area, that is available of the school website and also via Essex county council, why would you remove that? It is 100% factual. I think you possibly are over reacting or have too much time on your hands? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Accurateinfo2018 (talk • contribs) 13:40, 12 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Please read in detail the links I have provided, which explain in detail. If that isn't clear, you can ask specific questions at Help desk. -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 13:46, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

I have and do not see how they apply in this case. Basically I could get someone else who is not associated with the school to put the information onto the page and that will be fine. You are being ridiculous! I will start to add factual information and reference as I go along therefore you will see there is no conflict of interest or copyright. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Accurateinfo2018 (talk • contribs) 13:54, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
