Conflict of interest?
Hi. Regarding your edits of The Children's Air Ambulance. You have removed a lot of references, and have basically turned the article into an advert. I haven't reverted it, but tagged it as an advert, and also for conflict of interest. The edits you are doing do make it appear that you are closely tied in with the topic. If you are, I strongly urge you to stop editing the article until you have read the conflict of interest policy.

BTW - your user name "Taas": does this stand for The Air Ambulance Service? If so, it is in violation of the WP:username policy, which states that your username cannot be that of a group or company, or appear to represent more than one person. If so, you will need to change your username (see here for instructions on how to change your name.

If you aren't directly involved with the air ambulance people, then I apologise in advance. Stephen! Coming... 22:43, 27 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Further to my earlier post, I have modified the article to state where the Children's Air Ambulance service will be based. According to you, this is Bagington Airport.  I can't find any sources for this information, so could you help, please?


 * I would ask you not to keep on removing all the other references - these are required to keep a neutral point of view by presenting all viewpoints of the charity. Thank you. Stephen! Coming... 09:26, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi Stephen

All I'm trying to update the information as it's is incorrect. As far as i was aware I was updating the information niot advertising I thought it wanted to be a source of up to date correct information.

Things that need changing are

The charity is not run from Devon, it was taken over by The Air Ambulance Service has new, leadership, direction and fundraising strategy, the heli mentioned is incorrect, so all the information currently on the page is incorrect. The reference for the flying from Coventry can be found at the bottom of http://www.thechildrensairambulance.org.uk/about-us/news/organisation-news/first-rescue-for-the-childrens-air-ambulance

Is it possible that all the current information can be moved to a section called previous history or something along those lines. You'll also see that all the references pointing to tcaa.org.uk don't work as that site no longer exists.


 * Hi. Your recent edit is much better, thank you.  The problem with your earlier edits was that you completely removed the criticism section and reverted to a version that read like a mission statement.   The trick when editing articles is not to remove referenced sections, and to make sure that the article remains balanced. Stephen! Coming... 09:32, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

Furthur conflicts
Hello taas, I'm aliw136. I founded the pages for TCAA, DLRAA and TAAS, and I've been closely following all of them ever since. Many thanks for your enthusiasm for making contributions.

As 'Stephen' previously mentioned you had altered TCAA in a fashion that it reads like an advert. However I am glad you didn't revert anything this time. I, like him, assume taas is in the actual air ambulance?? If so, being balanced is really important, and also using your knowledge can be helpful.

I just wanted to share some pointers for how we can keep all the articles good and out of trouble. So.... No more mission statements. No more using 'we' as in referring to 'yourself/the organisation' eg. 'we attend 4 incidents a day' should be 'the air ambulance attends 4 incidents a day'. No more frequent reference (or/and links) to sister aircraft/charity, each charity has its own page. Referencing the layout of the organisation once is fine. If for example you mention coventry airport, you don't need to write 'also home of the WNAA'. We already mentioned it earlier in the page, so no need again. Specifically for TCAA the criticisms of the charity, none concern previous management, they all concern the need/purpose for the service, and as the plan is the same, the criticism is still relevant I'm afraid. Again for the TCAA only, you cannot, must not, evade the massive point that the charity does not have an aircraft! It wants one, it doesnt have one. So we have to mention that, it is important. We need more references for TAAS and WNAA, they will be deleted otherwise.

What we can do is use everything you know to improve all the articles, filling in details etc. What I am really keen on is if you could help improve TAAS, it is unclear what the organisation actually does, what the structure is, if it is purely a fundraiser or more an organiser? Something you could help with. I also wrote Wiltshire Air Ambulance, take a look for inspiration maybe. --aliw136 00:02, 22 October 2012 (UTC)

Less Conflicts, much improvement
Thank you for getting back to me TAAS. And thank you for adding that source for the patient transfer, if you have an independent source for the team transfer it would also help.

Keep up the good work, we need a section on specifically what helicopter, its callsigns, reg, whats in the cabin, how many pilots etc.

Just so long as you've got independent references

Yes by all means add, add, add. I think you mean add it to TAAS from TCAA, not TCAA from TAAS. --aliw136 17:14, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Taas. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Taas~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 03:16, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
