User talk:Kim Erik Olsen

Welcome!
Hello, Kim Erik Olsen, 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, 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 of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
 * Best practices for editors with close associations
 * 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.

Again, welcome! -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:56, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

Dorothy Kocher/Olsen pictures
I am Dorothys son. For the last several years I have been fighting with people who are selling my mothers pictures. I had put a page full of pictures up for friends and people researching the WASP, but had to take it down due to piracy and selling of her photos. Here is a link to the site where some of the pictures are hidden now. (link removed). Being able to see the pictures on either side and the exif info should show that I took these pictures. You will note that these were all taken with my Sony DSLR-A100. I went back and found the Air Force article also incorrectly claimed the photo. it is included as a pdf. The pictures of her on the P-38 were taken by another WASP using her camera.

There was a section of text that implied that mom was an unsafe pilot that "liked to scare people" and had been reprimanded for it. This is completely untrue and slanderous to moms memory. She was a very safe and skilled pilot. I really hope this inaccurate info doesnt reappear after I deleted it. I also see the additional info I added about her last ferry flight was deleted.

 * Hi Kim Erik Olsen. The photos you're referring were uploaded to Wikipedia's sister project Wikimedia Commons. Each project has its own separate policies and guidelines which means that any issue you have with the copyright licensing of the photos will need to be resolved on Commons. I added some information about this to c:User talk:Kim Erik Olsen yesterday, but I'm not sure you've seen it. The information I added contains a link to a page which offers a suggestion as to what you can do in cases like this.The disagreement over the content in the article is something that can be resolved on Wikipedia. I see you've also posted an edit request about this at Talk:Dorothy Olsen. Generally, information (good or bad) contained in Wikipedia articles is only supposed to reflect what's written about the article's subject in reliable sources (as defined by Wikipedia). Even negative information can be included as long as it's not WP:UNDUE and written in a neutral way. I'm not sure if that's the case here, but that's something that can be discussed on the article's talk page. So, if the information is re-added by another person, you should continue to discuss it on the article's talk page and not remove it again.Any personal recollection or knowledge you have about your mom is going to considered original research, unless it's something which can be verified through citations to WP:SECONDARY reliable sources. Even if the information you want to add is true, it's still going to need to be capable of being verified. So, if you're of any books, magazines, newspapers, etc. that Wikipedia would considered to be a "reliable source" that support the additions you want to make, you can add links to them to the article talk page to support any changes you want made to the article. Your proposals will be reviewed by others to assess them in terms of relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines. Please try and understand that the article is written about your mom, not written for her or on her behalf. All article content is going to be assessed in terms of relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines; stuff that's deemed to comply is likely going to be allowed to remain, while stuff that doesn't is likely going to end up being removed. Neither you nor anyone else connected to your mom has any real editorial control over the article content and any disagreements over it are going to be expected to be resolved through Wikipedia:Dispute resolution and WP:CONSENSUS.Finally please be very careful about using any kind of legal terms when discussing the article or when discussing other editors. This is one area where an editor can quickly get themselves into trouble if they're not careful and aware of Wikipedia:No legal threats. FWIW, I don't consider what you posted above to be a "threat" in any way and I'm only bringing it up just to let you know not to go too far with such types of statements. Wikipedia administrators can and often do WP:BLOCK editors without warning if they feel they are making "legal threats". -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:47, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
