Hello, I'm C.Fred. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Bud Shuster without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I have restored the removed content. 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. —C.Fred (talk) 00:22, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Bud Shuster. 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. See WP:NPOV. This is an encyclopedia, not a hagiography.

To C.Fred and (talk) I am trying to update the Congressman's page with biographical information provided by him. Please adviseMasefield25 (talk) 00:33, 25 September 2015 (UTC)


 * If the information is provided by him to you, you should not be adding it to the article. You have a conflict of interest if you are editing on his behalf.


 * However, feel free to suggest changes on the talk page for the article, but you should really provide reliable sources that are independent of Shuster to support the changes. —C.Fred (talk) 00:35, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

[C.Fred]So he can't provide his own information as a primary source? The biographical information would have published then cited?Masefield25 (talk) 00:39, 25 September 2015 (UTC)


 * There are very limited instances when primary-sourced material is accepted. We prefer information from secondary sources. —C.Fred (talk) 00:43, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

C.Fred Understood. Thank you for your time.
