User talk:Todd Clem

Welcome!
Hello, Todd Clem, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited was Bubba the Love Sponge, which appears to be an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

The page you created about yourself may well be deleted from the encyclopedia. If it is deleted and you wish to retrieve its contents, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page. If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Your edits to Bubba the Love Sponge
Hello! As I noted above, Wikipedia discourages editors from editing articles about themselves. I noticed that you have made several edits that have added information to Bubba the Love Sponge that may be violations of our policy on articles that are biographies of living persons. I recognize that you may be, in fact, BTLS, and would have additional information to provide. However, policies on reliable sources and the verifiable nature of information must still be adhered to. It's recommended that, if you have information that you feel should be added to or changed in the article, you use the article's talk page to make those requests. This specific article has a fair number of folks that have it on their Watchlist, so any posts to the talk page with edit requests should be responded to fairly quickly. Thanks!

Hello, I'm Strikerforce. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Bubba the Love Sponge, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ''Please stop. Wikipedia has specific policies that pertain to users editing articles about themselves, as I mentioned elsewhere. ''  Striker force Talk 00:41, 29 November 2018 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Bubba the Love Sponge, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Striker force Talk 17:02, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
