Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Simplified Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! —C.Fred (talk) 00:34, 10 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Hey C.Fred, thanks for the info. I am a little confused, it seems like no matter what I do to my wikipage on the Private Retirement Trust, it still says it "looks like it violates" the copyright laws but I can assure you it doesn't. My business partner wrote the piece and he is one of the founders of the Private Retirement Trust. is there anything I can to to eliminate this? Let me know, Thanks!

 * Well, two things. One, your partner or the PRT—depending on who claims the copyright—will need to irrevocably release the copyright so Wikipedia can use the text. Even so, it may need heavily edited for tone. The bigger thing is that you have a conflict of interest with PRT, because you are in a business partnership with one of its founders. It's a bad idea for an editor with a COI do edit an article where they have the conflict; it's better to request edits on the talk page and let independent editors actually make the changes. —C.Fred (talk) 03:10, 30 June 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Julietdeltalima. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

Thank you Julietdeltalima for the heads up. As far as the citations, there a way to have one source for multiple references or do I need to add a different one each time? For the 704.115 citation i wasn't sure how to cite in any other way then to add a new citation every time. Thank You.  (talk) 

Still Confused

 * Hey C.Fred, thanks for replying but I'm still confused? There is nothing copywritten about explaining how the PRT works. Just like any other page, the Private Retirement Trust is the subject and the page is explaining the origination and dynamics of how it works, nothing about its proprietary or trademarked aspects. If the founder himself were to open an account and post the same thing I have posted would that absolve the copyright release issue? I really want to have this up and done with so any way to expidite having the page up and running is much appreciated! thanks! Mark Seither (talk)

Proposed deletion of Private Retirement Plan

The Private Retirement Plan is California Civil Code of Procedure 704.115. This is CA state law and the page states the fact of what the law says. If it didn't cite it correctly or something please let me know but as far as I am concerned there is no difference between this and the wiki page on the IRA, Roth IRA, or any other law that has a wikipage dedicated to it.Mark Seither (talk) 19:45, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
