User talk:PBPR22

Welcome!
Hello, PBPR22, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Lee Roy Selmon Expressway‎, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article.&#32;Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
 * Best practices for editors with close associations

 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! —C.Fred (talk) 19:54, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Lee Roy Selmon Expressway, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. We do not capitalize subsequent references to the common noun form of the subject of an article, whether we are writing about an expressway, church, company, or university. —C.Fred (talk) 20:09, 20 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Not only do you need to follow the Manual of Style requirements for capitalization, but you also need to declare your relationship to the Tampa Hillsborough Expressway Authority. You appear to be a paid editor. —C.Fred (talk) 20:12, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

As previously advised, your edits, such as the edit you made to Lee Roy Selmon Expressway, give the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. You were asked to cease editing until you responded by either stating that you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits, or by complying with the mandatory requirements under the Wikimedia Terms of Use that you disclose your employer, client and affiliation. Again, you can post such a disclosure on your user page at User:PBPR22, and the template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. Please respond before making any other edits to Wikipedia. —C.Fred (talk) 20:18, 20 July 2022 (UTC)


 * I have added to my user page. PBPR22 (talk) 13:28, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

You still have not adequately responded or taken action to the inquiry regarding your appearance as an undisclosed paid editor. If you make any additional edits without complying, you may be blocked from editing. Your consistent violations of the Manual of Style mean your contributions cause as much harm as they do good. —C.Fred (talk) 20:33, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
