User talk:Guyfletcher

Welcome!
Hello, Guyfletcher, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you edited was Guy Fletcher, 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. 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 any other 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 firm 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.)

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! You can also just type   on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Wieldthespade (talk) 13:35, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

Clarification
Just wanted to let you know that I did not undo any of your changes because they all look good and reasonable to me but the Conflict of Interest guideline linked above is still a good page to check out if you have not done so yet. Also, please keep in mind that Wikipedia is very careful about biographies of living people and it is helpful to cite independent, outside sources if you have them available - otherwise, even truthful and correct edits might be unknowingly removed over the weeks or years as other editors try to trim the article to adhere to the rules set forth for biographies of living people (check out those guidelines here: WP:BLP). Whether or not you have a conflict of interest I (personally) think your edits look great and are likely helpful but I just wanted to let you know some of the problems the Guy Fletcher article might face in the future. Please, let me know if you have any questions - I'm not very experienced here, but I can definitely direct you to the right places to ask for advice. --Wieldthespade (talk) 13:50, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
