Hello, I'm Ae245. I noticed that in this edit to Yeo Wan Ling, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Ae245 (talk) 04:09, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

 * Hi, there are a few different issues here. Since you are employed by the article subject, you'll need to provide the proper disclosure according to WP:COIDISCLOSEPAY — that means disclosing the relationship on your user page, on the talk page of the article, and/or in your edit summaries. This disclosure is required by the Terms of Use. Be sure to read the policies and guidelines on paid editing and conflicts of interest.Most of your additions were copied from another website. Previously published content may be released by the copyright owner into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license by following the instructions at Donating copyrighted materials. I will point out, however, that Wikipedia is primarily interested in what reliable sources have to say about a particular subject, not what it says about itself, and articles should be based on reliable, independent, secondary sources.Once you have reviewed the conflict of interest guidelines, I recommend suggesting any future edits that you'd like to make on the talk page of the article, using edit requests. You may find the Edit Request Wizard helpful. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 03:41, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
