Contribution to Robert Bryce (writer)
I think that your contribution to this article was worded a bit strongly. A more neutral tone is especially needed in articles on living persons. Brianyoumans (talk) 02:21, 1 April 2017 (UTC)

It's a statement of fact. Nothing nasty is written, and the statement is supported by a link to the rebuttal document.

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Marcrauch. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Ethanol fuel / Alcohol fuel, 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 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 WP: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. Thank you. &#32; Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 06:40, 6 February 2020 (UTC)

My additions made in "Ethanol Fuel" and "Alcohol Fuel" were improperly edited out. I am an investigative journalist and co-publisher of TheAutoChannel.com, the Internet's oldest and largest automotive information resource. I clearly stated my position with TheAutoChannel.com. Neither me, nor TheAutoChannel.com, are involved with any ethanol producer or distributor. My work is all based on extensive research, personal hands-on experience, and is all backed with outside references. All of my comments should be restored immediately and the person who removed them should be censored.Marcrauch (talk) 07:26, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
 * You are unduly promoting your own work. This is the textbook definition of a conflict of interest and a violation of our WP:NPOV policy. Do not reinstate references to your own work like you did without first gaining consensus this is appropriate on the talk page of these articles. &#32; Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 07:28, 6 February 2020 (UTC)

Excuse me for being a real life resource for information; information that has been vetted and presented in front of scientific and government audiences and entities.

I don't know what, if any, position you have with Wikipedia. But if you are in management or administration of Wikipedia, then I think you should reveal if Wikipedia has ever received any donations or financial contributions from any petroleum oil entity or any entity involved with the oil industry. This would include such organizations as those related to snack foods, the convenience store industry, any restaurant association, etc., as these organizations have repeatedly received funding from the oil industry.Marcrauch (talk) 08:12, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I have no special position, however, your edits are inappropriate. You were told why (WP:PROMO/WP:COI), you were told what your recourses were (gain consensus for the addition of that material on the talk page of those articles). If you re-instate references to your own work again without doing so, you may well end up being on the receiving end of a block. Consider yourself warned. &#32; Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 08:49, 6 February 2020 (UTC)

Yes, it is a rant, not an unblock request. You must have graduated from 2nd grade.Marcrauch (talk) 19:04, 9 February 2020 (UTC)
