Hi. When you recently edited University of Phoenix, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Higher Education Act (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

The following message is an advisory, it is not a warning. You are not being punished, ridiculed, or derided. Please continue all helpful editing practices, cheers!

Hello Lesbianadvocate. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following the reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. JamaUtil (talk) 13:25, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

Shelley Adler, née ?
I see that you've just done considerable work on Shelley Adler. I've been doing some work on it myself, trying to arrange things in a more chronological order and NPOV'ing things.

Have you been able to find a source with Adler's birth name? I assume that she changed her name when she married John Adler; but I haven't been able to find the names of her parents. Hope that you've got better sources than I can find. Ammodramus (talk) 22:19, 22 September 2012 (UTC)


 * I am trying hard to find info on Adler but there just aren't many sources.Lesbianadvocate (talk) 13:16, 25 September 2012 (UTC)


 * I had the same trouble. I was also trying to find dates for the early-life section: birth date, dates of graduations, dates of clerkship, date of marriage, etc.  No luck at all.  Good luck--  Ammodramus (talk) 15:04, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

If you leave Cheri alone...
"Lesbian Advocate,"

I don't know if you work for a conservative PAC or the RNCC, but you clearly spend hours per day (paid, I would hope!) editing wiki articles to either make Republicans look better, or Democrats look worse. Some job -- sad, really. I attend college, and our computer labs are open, each computer with its own ISP address I believe. Either way, there is no way you can block me from using them to revert your edits. I will just keep creating new wiki accounts from new gmail accounts (takes 2 mins). Either leave Cheri's page alone, or expect this war to continue! :)

I am not a paid staffer for anyone. I'm a college student and a strong Cheri supporter. Schilling supporters have been so juvenile and childish -- egging her office (google it if you don't believe me -- hey, and then add it to her page!!) and screaming obscenities late at night as they drive by her headquarters -- all documented. They have also sent trackers being super aggressive to the point of insanity. Shoving cameras in her face and the faces of her staffers asking about partial birth abortions. I know it's not fair to you, but this little wiki war fun I'm having is just my way of standing up to Schilling. I realize you work for a national org., prob. in D.C., and are not directly affiliated w/ Schilling.... but.... wrong place, wrong time I guess.

You can do anything you want to Cheri's wiki page after the election, but until then, I'm not going to have even one person in congressional district 17 log on and read about how Catholic bishops are against her and how she is forcing Catholic hospitals to provide contraception. The way it was phrased on her page was a distortion. By election day, there will have been 3 televised debates in our district, as well as numerous newspaper articles summarizing her positions and Schilling's positions, so there is plenty of information out there for even the lowest information voter to latch onto in order to make a reasonably informed decision. I do not have any control over paid or earned media, but I *do* have some control over her wiki page, and I'd rather keep it issue-free than risk even ONE voter being given skewed, biased, partisan, or in any way editorial information about issues central (or NOT central, as the case may be) to this election. I realize your information is sourced, but it's not just that an issue is sourced or not -- that is not the concern -- it's which particular issues you are choosing to cover that is biased, and how they are presented.

If you can figure a way to find out which college I am at, and have all the computer lab computers banned from wiki, then you can stop me.... otherwise, you'll just have to deal with it.

P.S. Your handle is what really has motivated to stop you, because it's intentionally and inherently MISLEADING!! You are not a lesbian (unless you are Dick Cheney's daughter, perhaps....in any case, certainly you are no lesbian *advocate*). Your handle actually nicely exemplifies the work you are doing on wiki.

Hello. There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Edit warring, POV pushing over several pages. User:Norlns22. Thank you. -- JoannaSerah (talk) 20:24, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

Lesbianadvocate
I don't know what you mean by sock puppetry. Then again, I'm not being paid by a Conservative PAC or the NRCC to sit on a computer all day and think up edits to make Democratic candidates appear in the worst light possible. I feel sorry for you and your life in its current existence/ version. Maybe you should try grad school?? Nationalavenue (talk)

P.S. Cheri Bustos is up by 4 points.


 * Threats, vandalizing articles, edit warring, and sock puppetry will get you blocked. And I have nothing to do with any interested party. I live in Hong Kong for God's sake. Lesbianadvocate (talk) 09:26, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Widr. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to John Shimkus has been undone 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.

Kyle McCarter
Hello, I am writing to you about your recent edits to Kyle McCarter. Many of your edits violate WP:NPOV and WP:UNDUE, and you add long paragraphs about relatively irrelevant topics to this article, such as the minor Mercy Ministries controversy in Australia, or going into detail about his daughters death or about a seemingly minor campaign finance controversy. Would you please stop inserting such irrelevant and potentially harmful and biased material into this article? Thanks. --1990&#39;sguy (talk) 20:50, 2 March 2016 (UTC)


 * All of my contributions conform to Wikipedia policy. The campaign finance is due in particular is not minor. Indeed it has drawn a lot of media coverage. Lesbianadvocate (talk) 02:50, 3 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Yes, and I left a paragraph about that important issue. We should not remove it entirely. However, I do think that it is improper to add two or three long paragraphs about this issue, especially since McCarter is currently involved in a congressional campaign.
 * But besides the campaign finance issue, why did you add an entire paragraph detailing the death of McCarter's daughter? This article is supposed to be about Kyle McCarter, not about his daughter. If people really want to know more about his daughter and her death, they can look at the citations that we added.
 * Also, why did you add an entire paragraph detailing why Mercy Ministries is controversial in Australia? This is entirely irrelevant to the article, and it seems like a POV edit against McCarter. Why do you want to add this material, while removing material about McCarter's support for Each1Feed1? Overall, your edits seem like POV edits against a politician currently running for higher office.
 * I saw your edits for John Shimkus, and from what I saw, you did a really good job improving the quality of the article and removing POV, undue weight material. So, why are you adding what appears to be undue weight, POV material in Kyle McCarter? It really does seem like you are holding double standards, especially since Shimkus and McCarter are currently running against each other. Thanks. --1990&#39;sguy (talk) 14:30, 3 March 2016 (UTC)


 * And I politely ask you not to revert my edits until we can talk this out and come to some agreement. Thanks. --1990&#39;sguy (talk) 14:44, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

You are asking me to give you a blank check to vandalize the article. And vandalism is in fact what you are doing. You know very well this material is not improper.Lesbianadvocate (talk) 15:02, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

Conflict of interest; Terms of Use
Hi Lesbianadvocate. I work on COI issues a great deal in Wikipedia, along with my regular editing.

I want to make sure you are aware of three things, and ask you to reply.
 * First I am starting to look carefully at your editing history, and there are some legs to the claims being made at COIN, based on your editing.
 * Second, I want to make sure you are aware of the policy on paid editing.
 * If you are not aware of the history of paid editing scandals in Wikipedia, which have brought into disrepute entities that have done them, and which actually drove the amendment of the Terms of Use by the board of the Wikimedia Foundation and the creation of the PAID policy, please see Conflict-of-interest editing on Wikipedia; if you are not aware of it you might also want to read WP:Statement on Wikipedia from participating communications firms.

I am sorry to say but the situation looks pretty bad for you, on the grounds of what appear to be long-term violations of NPOV alone, much less the possible PAID/COI issues; the evidence presented at COIN is already enough that some admins would indef you per PAID. You have been unresponsive when these issues have been raised in the past, per prior threads on this page, to which you do not seem to have responded. I suggest that you reply at COIN and if (if) you are working with FP1 that you disclose that and make some kind of offer. Jytdog (talk) 18:28, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
