Conflict of interest
Welcome to Wikipedia. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Quiet Riot, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Everard Proudfoot (talk) 21:39, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. All the changes being made are historically accurate and verifiable. We are just cleaning up a bunch of updates where people have added themselves as former members when they are not, and other inaccuracies.

Are you sure?
Wikipedia is happy to have your participation, and we'd love to have your help improving the article on Quiet Riot. However, undoing other users' edits is not a good idea. As we've discussed on the talk page, in order to follow the neutral point of view requirements, we don't encourage subjects of articles to write the articles themselves- after all, you didn't write the article in Encyclopedia Britannica about your band, did you? It would be great if you could post on the talk page any factual inaccuracies that need to be corrected, or additions that would make the article better. But edit-warring with other users will only lead to negative outcomes, such as temporary blocks from editing to give you time to familiarize yourself with the rules. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 22:06, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

Vandalism
Vandalism is a word that has a very specific meaning at Wikipedia, and it doesn't apply to anything that's happened at Quiet Riot. This edit could be considered vandalism, since you put it on the user's user page, not on his talk page, but we understand that you're new to Wikipedia and perhaps didn't know where to find that user's talk page, so we wouldn't call that vandalism, either. I hope you'll take the friendly warnings you've gotten seriously, and choose to help us make the article better without writing it yourself. I loved Quiet Riot as a teenager, and it would make me sad to have to block them as an adult. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 22:13, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

Hi, It makes no sense to have a page of total false history but discuss it on the talk page. I have just been cleaning up facts that are verifiable.

Edit warring
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Quiet Riot. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Everard Proudfoot (talk) 22:06, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

"Vandalism"
Disagreements over edits are not vandalism. You, however, are showing examples of ownership and edit warring. As has been suggested to you, you should discuss your concerns on the article's Talk page, and do not keep reverting other edits. Everard Proudfoot (talk) 22:12, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

Name change
User has changed name to User:Pinkmermaid, so I've blocked this account to avoid any appearance of sockpuppetry, which I'm confident is not intended here. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 22:18, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Wait, this is odd- that account seems to be years old. If you already had an account, you don't need this one at all- just keep using your original account. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 22:20, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
 * And interestingly, that account had no interest in Quiet Riot until today. Everard Proudfoot (talk) 22:25, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
