Edits to Streetrunner article
Hi, I have tidied up the article and you have reverted my edits. I had done so for several reasons to bring the article back to within wiki guidelines. The most important one being that every piece of information needs to be sourced. I also note your activity here - you've been editing for 5 years and have made 178 edits, of which 154 have been on street runner and the remainder have been on related articles. That, coupled with your name (street runner the truth?) suggest a possibile conflict of interest and a single purpose account so I suggest you familiarise yourself with this important guideline: Conflict of interest. I would like to see you not revert my edits, but if there is something you disagree with, and your thoughts comply with wiki principles (including neutral, encyclopaedic, referenced etc), please raise them on the talk page and wait for a consensus amongst editors. You can post or drop by WP:Teahouse if you need assistance.Rayman60 (talk) 18:03, 29 July 2016 (UTC)

In reply to your statement (edit summary on Streetrunner): ''To Rayman60 I'm Management for STREETRUNNER and I personally update STREETRUNNER's wikipedia page with up to date information. Can you please explain what ousourced material means, that way I can fix it according to guide lines?)''

Please re-read the information above, particularly on conflict of interest.

As taken from that page

COI editing is strongly discouraged. Editors with a COI should follow Wikipedia policies and best practices scrupulously, and may be blocked if they cause disruption. If you have a COI:

Note that you do not control articles. Others may add information that would otherwise have remained little known, decide to delete the article, or decide to keep it should you later request deletion. While Wikipedians generally avoid naming editors and their paymasters, other media routinely do. This has led at times to embarrassment for the organization concerned; see Conflict-of-interest editing on Wikipedia.

Outsourced is not a term I recall using. Perhaps you mean 'sourced'? Here is some information:

The word "source" in Wikipedia has three meanings: All three can affect reliability.
 * The type of the work (some examples include a document, an article, or a book)
 * The creator of the work (for example, the writer)
 * The publisher of the work (for example, Oxford University Press)

Base articles on reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. Source material must have been published, the definition of which for our purposes is "made available to the public in some form". This includes material such as documents in publicly accessible archives, inscriptions on monuments, gravestones, etc., that are available for anyone to see. Unpublished materials are not considered reliable. Use sources that directly support the material presented in an article and are appropriate to the claims made. The appropriateness of any source depends on the context. The best sources have a professional structure in place for checking or analyzing facts, legal issues, evidence, and arguments. The greater the degree of scrutiny given to these issues, the more reliable the source. Be especially careful when sourcing content related to living people or medicine.

If available, academic and peer-reviewed publications are usually the most reliable sources, such as in history, medicine, and science.

Editors may also use material from reliable non-academic sources, particularly if it appears in respected mainstream publications. Other reliable sources include:
 * University-level textbooks
 * Books published by respected publishing houses
 * Magazines
 * Journals
 * Mainstream newspapers

Editors may also use electronic media, subject to the same criteria. See details in Identifying reliable sources and Search engine test.

I would suggest that as the paid representation of the subject, it is not appropriate for you to edit the article. You may find certain instances detailed in the COI policy where you can make suggestions and requests for edits, however generally it is advisable to avoid completely editing articles where you have such an intricate link as this harms the neutrality of the project. As mentioned earlier, you can post or drop by WP:Teahouse if you need assistance.

Despite me advising you of the issues and you addressing them away from the article, you chose to revert my edits. Please refrain from doing so again, otherwise you may be in breach of a rule regarding this and this may require referring this issue to the COI noticeboard.Rayman60 (talk) 17:29, 31 July 2016 (UTC)

Paid editing
In this edit to StreetRunner, you identified as this person's manager. Assuming this is a paid position, you would be required to read and follow the mandatory paid editing disclosure procedures. Please do so before making any further contributions - thank you. --Drm310 (talk) 17:06, 1 August 2016 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the additional information. I'm not being paid for my contributions to Wikipedia. I wish I was, but I'm not. I'm just trying to maintain the most up to date accurate information whenever I do make a post or a edit. The management services I provide are not on a salary but more on a commission based pay so I don't think this would apply to me.--Srthetruth (talk) 17:58, 1 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Uh, yeah. It does apply to you. Toddst1 (talk) 20:12, 1 August 2016 (UTC)


 * I think we're splitting hairs here... you are not a disinterested third party. Your client is paying you for the work you do for him, and your editing here serves his interests. Therefore, in the interests of transparency, you are obliged to disclose your relationship to him and its financial component.
 * To make it easy, I have placed a paid template on your userpage. You are welcome to dispute it if you wish, but I believe that leaving it there would be a sign of good faith on your part. --Drm310 (talk) 15:50, 2 August 2016 (UTC)


 * @Drm310 I have no problems with that. Thank you. --Srthetruth (talk) 05:42, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
