Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Addiction Apparel, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. &mdash;  LeoFrank  Talk 11:30, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

What's a maintenance template??
Instead of deleting everything I post, can you perhaps guide me through the process, I am following all the rules that I read on the site so I don't know why I'm encountering such difficulty.

Editing
Can you kindly answer my questions, and let me know why my content and pictures are being taken down? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Overleveraged1 (talk • contribs)


 * First see the message below about editing when you have a conflict of interest. As the owner of the company, you have a clear conflict. It doesn't mean that you can't edit the article, but it means you have to edit very carefully.


 * Some other editors may have been heavy-handed with removing your edits; however, the rule remains that the article needs to present a neutral point of view. If the article is written as a puff piece about a subject, that will usually get undone—just as an article would that totally slammed a subject.


 * One other thing to point out: by uploading the images, such as your company's logo, under a Creative Commons license, you have irrevocably made those images available for unlimited reuse, including commercial reuse. —C.Fred (talk) 17:19, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

This is the standard message for users who have a conflict of interest
Hello, Overleveraged1. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Addiction Apparel, you may have a conflict of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content 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. —C.Fred (talk) 17:13, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
