Welcome!

Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

Speedy deletion nomination of Nancy Lindborg
A tag has been placed on Nancy Lindborg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, but at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Mercy Corps, did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted by ClueBot.
 * Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Note that human editors do monitor recent changes to Wikipedia articles, and administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism.
 * Cluebot produces very few false positives, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made should not have been detected as unconstructive, please report it here, remove this warning from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
 * The following is the log entry regarding this warning: Mercy Corps was changed by Mason Clegg (u) (t) making a minor change with obscenities on 2010-03-22T21:16:29+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot (talk) 21:16, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

Edit at User:ClueBot/FalsePositives
Hi Mason,

I just noticed your edit at User:ClueBot/FalsePositives, and i thought i should drop you a message about it. First and foremost i restored your latest version, and it seems Cluebot is accepting it. I'm not exactly sure if that is because the chance i made added a larger amount of content (Thus easing the impact of words on the filters), or because cluebut utilizes a whitelist i am on (Chances are it doesn't check edits from older accounts). As for it reverting every edit you made: Cluebot had the rollback permission, which means that it will revert all subsequent edits a user makes. This is a really handy feature when you deal with vandalism, but in this case it seems to have caused some collateral damage as well.

Note that i am not cluebots maintainer nor readily involved with the bot, other then meeting it at times so this is not an "Official" reply. Im just a random wikipedian who saw the message and thought he could help :). Excirial ( Contact me, Contribs ) 23:10, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

I reverted your disruptive editing of July 5, 2013 here when you added soapboxing, promotional or advertising material and spam external links to the article The Wonderful Wizard of Oz Please do not add this type of material to Wikipedia or you may be blocked from editing. If you have questions, leave them below or on my talk page. (talk) 02:47, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Civic technology, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Gap9551 (talk) 22:45, 1 May 2017 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Mason Clegg. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Civic Technology Companies, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI 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, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the request edit template);
 * disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * 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 must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Chris Troutman ( talk ) 17:51, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
