Abraham Perry
Thank you for your efforts in creating the article for Abraham Perry, someone I knew next to nothing about. I added an infobox and a bit more information but will try to find more. Stretchrunner (talk) 14:35, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Good. I hope you and others can provide more detail. Nicmart (talk) 17:34, 3 December 2018 (UTC)

Edit warring
Your recent editing history at Robert Christgau shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

 * I DID provide a source; what do you call this???. And I have opened this talk page post. So go there; don't click that "undo" button (WP:BRD). Dan56 (talk) 20:56, 24 January 2019 (UTC)


 * I even included the relevant quotation in the citation: "Hailed by many as the dean of American rock criticism..." (Cleo Simon, The Boston Globe) Your reverting and removing are baffling. Dan56 (talk) 21:02, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

Can you see this clear enough? Dan56 (talk) 21:48, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
"Christgau, who’s often referred to as the Dean of American rock critics." (Claiborne Smith, Kirkus Reviews)

Dan Mitrione
I have done some editing on the Dan Mitrione article, which you commented on many years ago. If you have any new information or comments, I would be interested in reading them on the article's talk page. Rgr09 (talk) 05:24, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

Please refrain from using talk pages such as Talk:Stephen Barrett for general discussion of the topic or other unrelated topics. They are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways, based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines; they are not for use as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See here for more information. Thank you. --Ronz (talk) 15:44, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
 * You misrepresent what I posted. I pointed to very relevant evidence about Barrett’s credibility, or lack thereof. You may not like it on other grounds, but it had nothing to do with chatting. Nicmart (talk) 00:59, 28 August 2019 (UTC)


 * Putting it another way, it was a violation of our WP:BLP policy which also applies to talk pages. Doug Weller  talk 17:06, 28 August 2019 (UTC)

Philip Hayton (industrialist) moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Philip Hayton (industrialist), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

January 2020
Hello Nicmart. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Nicmart. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. Praxidicae (talk) 16:58, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
 * This is outrageous and false. I have no relationship at all with Westcotec. All of the sources were entirely objective, and I also created a linked page about the founder which describes his criminal record. How dare you make such an unsupported and unsupportable accusation. Nicmart (talk) 21:38, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Furthermore, to be clear, I have never had any relationship with Westcotec. You owe me an apology and the page should be restored. Nicmart (talk) 21:40, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
 * There is nothing in the Westcotec entry I created which expresses any opinion, positive or negative. It is a statement of facts about the history of the company, the products it makes, and its earning. There is zero that "gives the impression" that I am connected in any way to the company — and I am not. You provided no example of anything that I wrote that was not a simple statement of fact about the company, similar to those on thousands of other pages. Why would anyone promoting the company (for any reason) create a page about the founder which described his criminal history? That would be utterly illogical. Nicmart (talk) 21:47, 4 January 2020 (UTC)

Suggestion of corruption
Praxidicae has suggested, without a hint of evidence or truth, that I have had, do have, or will have, some financial relationship with Westcotec, about which I created an entry. This is outrageous and false, even defamatory. At no time have I had ANY relationship with the company, nor will I, and I certainly won't be paid for the entry. What I wrote is void of POV and simple statements of facts about the history, finances, and products of a highly visible though fairly small British company. If I were promoting the company, why would I also create a linked entry about the founder which describes his serious criminal record? Praxidicae has also moved that entry to draft on dubious grounds

It's definitely worth noting that the founder has gone to great lengths in other contexts to keep his criminal record out of the public eye, and that may explain what is happening here. If anyone has an unstated motive, it isn't me. Nicmart (talk) 22:34, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
