Hi, I have a question about your edits to Great Lakes refugee crisis. While I hadn't cited my sources when I wrote that article, as references were not yet standard on Wikipedia, I'm pretty sure that the line "While UNHCR found contractors with lesser reputations to carry out its relief work, it resulted in a noticeable drop in the quality of the relief operations." is taken almost directly from one of the sources linked at the bottom of the page. It would seem to me that replacement local NGOs would be, almost by definition, less professional. Cheers, BanyanTree 23:17, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I have reverted the edit in question. Please bring any issues you may have to the article discussion page. - BanyanTree 20:41, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, TonyWaters. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:


 * avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
 * instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the request edit template);
 * when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. ChamithN  (talk)  18:09, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Rong Wongsawan
Hello TonyWaters,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Rong Wongsawan for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly indicate why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&action=edit&section=new&preload=Template:Hangon_preload&preloadtitle=This+page+should+not+be+speedy+deleted+because...+ contest this deletion], but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Volker Kirchberg moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Volker Kirchberg, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
