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

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Ted Minor, 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 another 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 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.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
 * Best practices for editors with close associations

Hello, I appreciate your suggestions. Yes, I am Ted Minor. I did edit my page because as you can imagine as a NASCAR driver sponsors Google me constantly and preferably the Wikipedia page should be correct. For example, if it is a conflict of interest for me to edit my own name I certainly understand and would appreciate your direction as to how to correct multiple inaccurate items on my page, such as my name for example. My name is not Theodore. My legal birth name is Ted Minor. If you need me to prove that I'd be happy to. Some other incorrect details: - it mentions 2019 position 114th, there is no 114th position in NASCAR. That line needs to be deleted. - it says best finish 47th and there are not 47 teams entered in any NASCAR race. My best finish is 25th. If you read down in the Wikipedia page it states that. If I'm not allowed to edit my own page I certainly understand. If you can make these edits I would appreciate it in an attempt to make the page accurate as I am sure Wikipedia enjoys the reputation of being an accurate and factual site. I sure appreciate your help. Tmmotorsports (talk) 03:43, 12 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your civility and understanding, it is much appreciated. The birth name thing has been an issue with some drivers pages for quite a while with certain editors just guessing at longer names. No proof required, I'll change it back. As for the other two changes - those fields denote finishes in the season-long championship. It is unavailable on the mobile view, but on the desktop view, when you hover over "best finish" in the infobox, a message pops up saying that it is the best championship points finish. That's standard practice for stock car racing driver articles here on the encyclopedia. The "2019 position" field is also the championship points position, as denoted by it being a season-long finish, not just any race within the season. Again, that's standard practice on driver articles and that's been around on this site longer than I have. Any other questions, feel free to reply below. Thank you again for your understanding and respect of policy.  Willsome 4 29  (say hey or see my edits!) 04:00, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
