User talk:Scottybluecat

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

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was I Can't Sing! The X Factor Musical, 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 any other 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 firm 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.)

Here are some pages that you might find helpful: 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! Blethering  Scot  16:43, 28 February 2014 (UTC)

X Factor Musical
Wikipedia works on independent reliable sources, and they say Harman is playing Simon Cowell, so we go with that over any primary source such as the article website and this does not cause any harm to the article and or the production. WIth regard to the other edit, I or any editor cannot take your word for it and as the shows website doesn't support your claim nor do any of the other sources in the article this has to be automatically reverted, especially as this is a Biographies of Living Person's issue. If the show's website is updated to show the part and the correct actor playing it then that would be a primary source, however in the absence of a secondary one it would be accepted. Also its strongly advised that a person with a COI in the article doesn't edit or create a page they are associated with, however as long as you use appropriate sources and write neutrally it shouldn't be an issue. Please read up on the policies of wikipedia or contact me on my talk page, or here as I'm watching yours if you want to discuss further. Blethering  Scot  16:51, 28 February 2014 (UTC)
