Cognitive computing
Hi! I appreciate your efforts to improve the Cognitive computing article, which needs a lot of work. However, the change you made was too radical. On Wikipedia the statements in articles need to be supported by reliable sources. Your edit doesn't reference any sources and is quite vague in explaining what cognitive computing is.

I suggest a more incremental approach to improving the article: you can remove individual statements that are unreferenced or are obviously promotional, and you should certainly add (referenced) material, but nuking the whole article including its references and starting over isn't the best way forward. Let me know if you have any questions. Antony–22 (talk⁄contribs) 17:57, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

Also, best to take a look at Conflict of interest and Best practices for editors with close associations. If you're an employee of a company involved in cognitive computing, you'll want to disclose that (especially if you're editing in an official capacity), and work with other editors to make sure your edits are seen as neutral and not promotional.

Thank you Antony-22. I appreciate the guidance. I've added the disclosures. Hughesonline (talk) 22:21, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

XLinkBot
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Cognitive computing has been reverted. Your edit here to Cognitive computing was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwgaraSB80M) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 22:31, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

Welcome!
Hello, Hughesonline, 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! Antony–22 (talk⁄contribs) 23:16, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

Thanks Antony-22 I appreciate the guidance. I have updated my Bio, and added in a comment on the cognitive computing talk page. Hopefully this brings my contributions back in line with guidelines. Please do let me know if I have missed anything. Many thanks, Hughesonline (talk) 17:06, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

Hughesonline, you are invited to the Teahouse!

Optical Character Recognition
Your recent edits to the article are all supported by statements on the Haven (HP) website. It is preferred that material is drawn from a range of secondary sources. Your contributions may be flagged as spam if it appears that the main purpose of your editing is to raise the profile of the website.Martinlc (talk) 08:49, 22 April 2016 (UTC)

Hi Martinlc, I understand and it is something I am mindful of when making edits. At the moment I do not have any other references from other sources for these specific edits, but I will add these as I find them. I have already done this on other posts I have edited as I agree that it is important to not show bias. I make a point of contributing where the content will be useful, and I understand that references are important to support edits. A fine line for anyone to walk. I appreciate the feedback and guidance from the community moderators and leaders. Hughesonline (talk) 00:17, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
