Hello, I'm Jim1138. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to United Future— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to United Future. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Jim1138 (talk) 08:30, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

Notice of conflict of interest
Per notice on my talk page. Hello, KiwiLads. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:


 * avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
 * instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the request edit template);
 * when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies.

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Jim1138 (talk) 08:53, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

Dear Jim, Apologies for the 'rule breaking'. As you know, Peter has stepped down as Party leader, and so to have his office team. By order of the Board of management of United Future, I have been charged to update all our social media as well as our wikipage with the latest information of our party. I am happy to submit a copy of minutes verifying my authority. I don't know how to do this correctly on Wikipedia, nor do we wish to spend any extra time spent on this than necessary (I have an election campaign to focus on). However, as we are the org to which the page is about, we feel that this information is relevant for our party, as it is not promoting anyone but rather informing people of where our party is and who is important, and that our wishes should be taken into consideration when editing our page.

 * As you are essentially paid to edit, please visit wp:PAID. wp:Wikipedia is anonymous. Per wp:verifiability, any significant information needs to wp:cite a wp:reliable source. Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 09:15, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

Ok I will adjust our user and talk pages to reflect who we are. BTW, we are good, honest kiwis doing our civic duties by being members of a political organisation. We do NOT get paid for what we do!!! such insinuations are quite rude, clearly we do not use the interweb extensively so a little understanding would be appreciated. KiwiLads (talk) 09:24, 30 August 2017 (UTC)


 * My apology for the rudeness. Now that I have apologized, can I immigrate to New Zealand and out of texting range of our fearless liar leader? Please, please? Jim1138 (talk) 09:48, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
