Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Maestromahal. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Taj Mahal (musician), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to 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 Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. You can't just remove cited information from an article just because the subject "doesn't want it there." SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 14:18, 1 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Not true at all. This information does not need to be nor does it have to disclosed. Maestromahal (talk) 14:20, 1 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Any information that isn't supported by reliable sources can, or course, be removed. However, as noted above, you have a conflict of interest. Because of this, please propose changes on the article talk page with your reasoning. I regret that "The subject doesn't like it" is not a valid or acceptable reason. A much better reason would be "The information is wrong and I can prove that with this reference" . Regards  Velella  Velella Talk 14:22, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * If you look at tajblues.com you will see that it is not listed nor should be. We will get legal involved at this point. Maestromahal (talk) 14:25, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * If you look at WP:NLT, you'll understand why your above statement is a serious problem. SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 15:09, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Taj Mahal (musician), you may be blocked from editing. You were already warned twice before you registered the account to continue making edits. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:25, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Your recent edits could give Wikipedia contributors the impression that you may consider legal or other "off-wiki" action against them, or against Wikipedia itself. Please note that making such threats on Wikipedia is strictly prohibited under Wikipedia's policies on legal threats and civility. Users who make such threats may be blocked. If you have a dispute with the content of any page on Wikipedia, please follow the proper channels for dispute resolution. Please be sure to comment on content, not contributors, and where possible make specific suggestions for changes supported by reliable independent sources and focusing especially on verifiable errors of fact. Thank you. SPF121188 (talk this way) (contribs) 14:26, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary, as you did at Taj Mahal (musician). ''As noted above, you were warned twice before creating this account. You need to stop.'' SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 14:30, 1 August 2022 (UTC)


 * How will it feel when you're actually talking to the source! Maestromahal (talk) 14:36, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia is not a reliable source for citations elsewhere on Wikipedia. As a user-generated source, it can be edited by anyone at any time, and any information it contains at a particular time could be vandalism, a work in progress, or simply incorrect. Maestromahal (talk) 14:56, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Mr. Mahal would like to know how he can physically speak with one you unpaid volunteers that is controlling HIS information without having to type it. Maestromahal (talk) 14:47, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * You've already made a legal threat, which is explicitly prohibited on this site. The subject of an article does not own Wikipedia, and can't arbitrarily remove cited information form their page. That simple. SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 14:49, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Nor do you own Wikipedia!!! And on top of that your customer service and speech is horrendous. You are a volunteer correct? Any person(s) can correct what is listed on their page that is about them! People like yourselves are how things get twisted. That's why there's no phone number, no direct contact assistance and no one obviously to report you or Hey man im josh to. That alone is a red flag, the user name. Wow!!! No wonder you guys don't like to be corrected or reported. This will be corrected one way or another and that's not a threat. You can't just have people's personal information out there. If the person doesn't disclose it, neither should you be able to. Maestromahal (talk) 14:54, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep your comments related to content, and don't make them personal as you already have. You've already been blocked from editing Taj Mahal (musician) for 24 hours, and if you continue to address fellow editors in that manor, you might earn a full block.

 You have been blocked from editing from certain pages (Taj Mahal (musician)) for a period of 24 hours for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:. firefly ( t · c ) 14:57, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
