User talk:GlenAllenVAmanager

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

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Glen Allen, Virginia, which 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, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms our use and policy on paid editing.

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.

Hello, I'm Tacyarg. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Glen Allen, Virginia seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ''I've removed for the second time your statement about Glen Allen being a popular suburb. You need a reference to support this. Please discuss on the article's Talk page if you aren't clear. Thanks.'' Tacyarg (talk) 23:26, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Also please be aware of Wikipedia's policy on conflicts of interest. Because Glen Allen is unincorporated, I'm not sure what you are a manager of, but your language so far appears to be promotional. --Ken Gallager (talk) 14:54, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Please be aware that much of the information on this Wiki page was, and still is inaccurate and/or incomplete. Before my contributions to the Glen Allen Wikipedia site, this page was old, outdated and inaccurate. The list of citations can go on, but to name some examples: Glen Allen is located within 2 Virginia counties: Henrico and Hanover. This is a an undeniable fact and should not of been removed or omitted from this site (to say that Glen Allen is just in Henrico County is not accurate); the link sources of Glen Allen as being a top place to live according to CNNMoney in the years of 2007 and 2009 cannot be found, therefore they are useless - try clicking on the links. To add another example, Glen Allen's History section was so brief and weak, it reveals work of minimal effort and was updated. Lastly, the picture displayed of Glen Allen, VA is just poor. Is this picture supposed to show interested readers a true glimpse of what Glen Allen is? No, it is not representative of what Glen Allen is in year 2018. While I'm new at this and not the master of Wikipedia's policies and of Wikipedia's quality controls, I am someone who actually lives in Glen Allen, VA - in Hanover County by the way, who is contributing out of love and care of my CDP. I love living in Glen Allen and she deserves better than what was previously represented on this page. Finally, it should be noted that until some -useful- updates were actually made on the Glen Allen, VA Wikipedia page, this page had very little care or attention. It is satisfying to see that someone is finally paying attention. If some of the contributions seemed promotional, they were not intended. That being said, all future contributions will be 100% neutral, but they will also be factual and accurate and representative of what Glen Allen, Virginia is. Content that is added or revised to be accurate or corrected our updated should not be removed by others without good cause.  And if someone has a "chip on their shoulder" that a another person is contributing to this Wikipedia page for the first time, well, they ought to get over that. This page and its content is for and about "the CDP" of Glen Allen, Virginia and it needs work and a little care, albeit Neutral to meet a minimal level of quality.   --GlenAllenVAmanager (talk) 12:43, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Please read the talk page for Glen Allen to see what the problem is with listing Hanover County. If you can provide a published source other than the ZIP code boundary that supports your claim, please do so. Simply having your mailing address say "Glen Allen" is insufficient. It is wonderful that you wish to improve the article, and more details on history and economy are welcome - but again, please make sure that anything you add is from a published source and is not simply based on your personal experience. Please read WP:No original research to see what I mean. --Ken Gallager (talk) 12:47, 2 April 2018 (UTC)
