Hello, I'm Contributor321. I noticed that you made a change to an article, San Diego State University, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Question
Hi. Quick question: are you editing for, or conected to, Cal Coast Credit union?HappyValleyEditor (talk) 05:53, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi. I am not editing for or otherwise connected to Cal Coast Credit Union. I am, however, a new editor and trying to get my feet wet by creating this page. Sorry, I'm such a noob, I don't even know if you will get this reply. I'll try to follow up to see if you did. Thank you for your consideration and edits (if you made any) and any advice from a wiki veteran would be much appreciated.
 * Hi... you are doing very well for a new editor. We sometimes ask when people are creating commercial pages. It's good to hear you are not connected. Don;t forget to sign your posts on talk pages with four tildes! You can see how at WP:SIGN. Happy editing. HappyValleyEditor (talk) 06:20, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
 * That makes sense, thanks again. Honestly, I am finding the collaboration via these talk pages most challenging so far. Hopefully, I will get the signature right here.MitchillMitchill (talk) 07:07, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I've been looking at your edits to the Cal coast page, Very promotional. Who spends time adding a section on the services (checking, mortgages, accounts) that a bank provides? Sorry but I am not buying your explanation. You've spent a lot of time integrating this commercial/promotional page into Wikipedia. HappyValleyEditor (talk) 07:40, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi again. While I understand and appreciate your concern, I assure you it is unfounded. Although I am familiar with the credit union in question, I am not affiliated (I am not even a member). The point for me was to see if i could create a page that would stick. I read that company pages are more difficult so I thought I'd start there. In researching the company, I noticed several other san diego credit unions with wikipedia pages and used those for inspiration. Hence, the products/services information you have deemed promotional. I am not sure how including a company's products/services is promotional. But then, as I said above, I am a certified noob. Thanks again for your comments as well as any other advice you feel like sharing. MitchillMitchill (talk) 15:26, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
