Conflict of interest
Hello Tidridge. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Mainland, Buck Lake, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following the reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 03:36, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Mainland, Buck Lake


The article Mainland, Buck Lake has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * It's an imaginary location in what appears to be a book that in itself fails WP:GNG.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

 * I note that our conflict of interest policy was explained to you above, with regard to Mainland, Buck Lake, so you should not have needed a repeat warning


 * Your edits included unencyclopedic trivia, such as a list of committee members and details of each meeting, which are not suitable for inclusion in an international encyclopedia.


 * Furthermore, as you appear to have been chairman of that committee, this also appears to be an attempt at blatant self-promotion - Arjayay (talk) 07:31, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
