Please do not remove content from Wikipedia, as you did to World Financial Group. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. --Jayron32 06:35, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Do not vandalize

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits are considered vandalism. If you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the work of others. Thank you. Yuser31415 (Review me!) 06:37, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Do not remove others comments from the discussion page as you did with the WFG. Arzel 15:41, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Tips to avoid misinterpretation of your actions

Hey! I looked closer at your edits, and given your comments at my talk page, it looks like they were made in good faith. Please understand that people who want to disrupt Wikipedia often just delete whole sections of an article without cause or reason. It should be noted that while such changes are easy to track and fix, the motive of the editor is not easy to interpret at times. I apologize for implying that your work was complete vandalism; it should be noted that others have since left messages at your talk page saying they thought it was as well. Just a few tips to avoid this problem in the future:

• Use the edit summary to leave a quick note saying what you are doing. It lets others know what changes you are making and why you are making them.
• Use an article's talk page. The one for the article you are working on is found at: Talk:World Financial Group. Use the + button to start a new topic, or use the edit link next to a topic to add to one. If you are making large, sweeping changes to an article, it is helpful to leave notes at the talk page extensively explaining to others why you are making those changes.
• Create a user account. The link to do so is in the upper right corner of every wikipedia page. Anonymous editing is not disallowed; even anonymous editors are supposed to be trusted in good faith. However, many people use anonymity to be disruptive and avoid detection. While it is now clear that this was not your intent, people tend to be more trusting of people they can put a name to; not just a random IP address (as you are now identified by).
• You should also at some point, read through some Wikipedia policies and guidelines, the "Big 3" are: verifiability, no original research and, neutral point of view. Also Be Bold is a good one. It appears you are doing this, and I am sorry that I accused you of disingenuous motives.
• One more thing. sign your comments on talk pages by using four tildes: ~~~~

If you have any other questions about Wikipedia, please leave me another note at my talk page. Thanks and Happy editing! --Jayron32 16:16, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Jayron32 you are continually adding Libellous and incorrect comments

You continually add reference to a pyramid scheme. The financial services industry is heavily regulated, and the regulatory bodies know that WFG is not a pyramid. nor a pyramid scheme. - which is somewhat redundant.

Pyramids are illegal. Pyramids pay people on top, for not providing products or services. WFG is legal. the model is legal. there is no payment for recruiting to any agent or employees.

furhter WFG does not have employees. they are agents, and as is the norm with agents they get paid on performance.commission and overrides.

you are continuing to delete factual information and adding in incorrect, false, misleading, information.

Reference to discredited sites devalues wikipedia.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.98.67.205 (talk)

For the record, I didn't "add" anything. I merely undid your removal of content from Wikipedia. When one sees an article shrink by thousands of words without any explanation, such a move needs to be undone pending a reasonable explanation. I undid your edit with no malace or even caring about the article in question. I have never heard of this group. Please read the comments I left above so you can understand how to avoid this problem in the future. I understand your reasoning now and I am no longer contesting your edits. Understand that NOT A SINGLE WORD you deleted from the article was written by me. I am wholly uninterested in this article. Please read the comments I left above on how to avoid these problems in the future, and please sign your comments by using four tilde's: ~~~~. --Jayron32 04:37, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Jayron32 - regarding edits.

I do appreciate your comments.

As well I am trying to ensure the comments are accurate, balanced, and not libelous.

You refer to deletion of text. I wish you to know that the largest deletion was not done by me, and it was of text that I had written.

After you suggested to not remove information,I did as instructed.I did not remove text. I added information to put into context the information which is factually incorrect.specifically Pyramid scheme is factual incorrect. statements that Regulatory bodies findings were removed from the article. reference to employees is incorrect. suggestions that money was given to WFG, when is in fact payment for licenses is required by the industry.

my comments were then deleted.

Could you please explain?
