User talk:Forestsrock

Welcome!
Hello, Twscomms, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited 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.&#32;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 another 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 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.)

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).

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
 * The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Simplified Manual of Style

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, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! KH-1 (talk) 05:57, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

 * KH-1 is spot on - consider the issues very very carefully JarrahTree 06:10, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
 * With a user name like yours, and the issues that KH-1 has raised, to ignore the message can get you blocked JarrahTree 06:12, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I believe I have requested a change of username. I'm the only person using my account, but all variations of my real name were taken. I'm happy to submit a draft for you to review. I stand by all my edits...they provide updated information, remove what's no longer relevant, and overall make the entry more accurate and concise. Twscomms (talk) 06:22, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

cleaning up
Is not what wikipedia ia WP:ABOUT - speacially trying to corporitize the article - the messy bits about the past are what made the organisation. Not the current links - please note that WP:MOS discourages WP:EXTLINKS in text. Sorry but WP is as much about the past as much as the trendy website feeling to articles JarrahTree 12:55, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
 * relevance and importance for media savvy material is not how the article grew, and the whole process of what really constitutes relevance for a balanced online encyclopedia does not make for easy copy... the whole cleanup has been reverted for the moment. Understand that when coming to a proper read of other articles.  It requires some consideration and consultation.  First understand that it is not a website annual report as so many government eds inadvertantly do to their department articles, standing out like very very sore thumbs...  Better to try understand the nature of good articls with context and awkward bits. JarrahTree 13:14, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

Have you saved a back-up of the edits I made? Certain parts need to be updated – such as current campaigns and funding sections – because the information is not current. I'm happy to submit as a draft for review first (if I can work out how to do that). Forestsrock (talk) 23:52, 12 May 2016 (UTC)


 * In your user space - you should have sandbox (look in your preferences) - do the parts you want to add in there if you want. Reverted items are always in the article history - no problem about checking an articles history to find the bits and pieces. JarrahTree 10:47, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
