Conflict of interest
Hello, TallBostonGirl. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Morris Cerullo, 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 WP: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. Thank you.  Velella  Velella Talk 13:01, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

All of the work I did to correct or enhance the information on these sections comes from having read Dr. Cerullo's books or witnessed interviews about various topics contained herein. I am sad that I took all the time to update and include things about his life that have since been omitted. I lived in San Diego and read a lot of newspaper articles about him and some of his books and other public sources. If other people will be permitted to give inappropriate or inaccurate statements about a person, then another person, having more or better information, should be permitted to set the record straight.

 * So assuming that you are currently in Massachusetts, a long way from San Diego, are all these updates done simply from memory of what the books and newspapers said? Or are you still in San Diego with access to those books and newspapers that you could cite as references. Having valid citations would make a great difference in the acceptability or otherwise of your contributions.  Velella  Velella Talk 22:16, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Morris Cerullo, you may be blocked from editing. Girth Summit  (blether) 13:22, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Morris Cerullo; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Girth Summit  (blether)  13:52, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia. Girth Summit  (blether) 13:53, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

I only added information to enhance what was already written. If something was written that was incorrect, I corrected it. I can provide the sources. I just need to determine which book or article or interview gives which information. I'm not sure how my adding details or expanding what's already there is disruptive.

You're the one engaging in disruptive editing. You completely erased every single added or changed information I submitted, including other things that he founded. Your punctuation is incorrect. Some of what you purport is incorrect. The things that I added are commonly known to anybody who knows of him. Your deletion of every single thing I added exhibits unfair bias, false accusation, and censorship. TallBostonGirl (talk) 17:21, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
 * 'Commonly known' doesn't cut it, I'm afraid. Please read WP:V. You need to provide references to reliable sources when you make an edit, so that the information can be verified. This isn't censorship, this is standard editorial practice - we aim to reflect what reliable, independent secondary sources say about a subject, and nothing more. So far, unless I've missed something, zero of your edits are referenced to reliable sources - that's not how we do things. Girth Summit  (blether)  20:31, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
