User talk:Rick Altizer

September 2021
Hello, Rick Altizer. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Rick Altizer, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted.   Peaceray (talk) 04:27, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Well, that's a rather unfriendly and unhelpful greeting. Please don't take it personally, Wikipedia has a problem with people promoting things, and there's a lot of knee-jerk reaction to people editing articles connected to them in any way. So, to help you through all that mess, there are a couple of things you can do:
 * 1) Feel free to ask me to make changes for you, just start a new section on User Talk:Jclemens and I'll take care of what needs taken care of, and we can make sure Wikipedia's internal rules are complied with in the process.
 * 2) If you don't want to ask on-wiki, you can email info-en-q@wikimedia.org for issues about your article or the articles on a project you're connected with.
 * Again, my apologies for the snippiness of the automated templates. They weren't actually written by real lawyers, but they sure feel as dry and unfriendly as if they had been, don't they?  Cheers, Jclemens (talk) 06:07, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
