Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you.-- VViking Talk Edits 14:14, 11 September 2017 (UTC)

Copyright violations
Although you can (and should) use information from published sources in Wikipedia articles, in almost no case can you copy the exact words of a source. The material I removed from Mont Rose College of Management and Sciences clearly violated copyright, and I will remove it again. Please don't restore it; I'll have to block you if you do so persistently. In addition, a good deal of that article approached—and still approaches—advertising for the institution in question; please review WP:ADMASK and WP:NPOV and observe our policies and guidelines in your editing.

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for edit warring and violating the three-revert rule. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.

Dear Deor can you see the following link is our website link: please feel free to check our content from our website and it is been referred from our college website. You can see

http://www.ilfordrecorder.co.uk/news/mont-rose-college-opens-new-campus-in-ilford-1-5000574


 * And the college website has very clearly along the bottom line this text "Copyright © 2006 - 2017 Mont Rose College, London. All rights reserved." - that is the issue. It is copyright content and cannot be reproduced verbatim or even by close paraphrasing. For the record, the text you are trying to add would not, in any case survive as it is highly promotional, vastly over the top in terms of balance of content in the article and, in almost its entirely, it is not encyclopaedic. I assume that you have a PR role for the College, but please be assured that Wikipedia is not a place for PR spin and hyperbole.  Velella  Velella Talk 16:51, 11 September 2017 (UTC)

Conflict of interest/paid editing
Please disclose your connection with Mont Rose College of Management and Sciences. You can reply just below this notice. Thanks.

Hello WilliamJoshua. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, but that you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a black hat practice. Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly. Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:WilliamJoshua. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, please do not edit further until you answer this message. Jytdog (talk) 18:49, 6 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Hi I am working with this organisation on their text content every where and in that it comes wiki too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WilliamJoshua (talk • contribs) 09:58, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you for replying! As noted above, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation.  Please do so - you can just reply here and state that in words - I can put that in the template for you.   After you complete the disclosure requirement then please let me get you oriented as to how COI is managed here in Wikipedia, and then about the policies and guidelines that govern editing generally. (Your editing has persistently violated all of our content policies and you have violated several of our behavioral policies as well)
 * If you continue to edit before we are done working through these things, I have little doubt that you will be indefinitely blocked swiftly. You can turn this around, or not. Your decision.
 * And it appears that you have been editing without logging in. If so, stop doing that - it is a form of sockpuppeting and you were just recently blocked for that. Jytdog (talk) 16:17, 9 October 2017 (UTC)

Promotion
Having disclosed your arrangement with Mont Rose College, please be aware that promotional language in this or any other Wikipedia article is not acceptable and will be edited. Please keep your editing neutral and well-source. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 13:04, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
