A.'. A.'. edits edit

What are you doing? (I'm tempted to link Liber ThISARB when asking that question, but I assume you can find it on your own.) Wikipedia prefers third-party sources. Do me a favor and think for five actual minutes on the clock about why such a rule might exist. Reading this first might possibly help. Dan (talk) 07:15, 16 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Serious problems exist with your edits. For starters, you keep changing an accurate reference to an inaccurate one. The association of A.'. A.'. to the Vast Countenance is in square brackets in the source, meaning it probably didn't appear in the original Sepher Sephiroth. I don't know who actually wrote it. Also, I don't know what you think the page number means without a book edition.

Beyond that, Crowley took money from followers without paying it back. I could certainly argue against calling this payment for services. But seriously try to imagine what you would think if the Catholic priesthood "Black Brotherhood" claimed they never accept any compensation. And imagine what you'd think if the 'pedia claimed they lived only for the spiritual growth of others, or some such claim, giving an official Catholic source as the sole evidence. Wikipedia prefers third-party sources for a reason. Learn to use them. Dan (talk) 01:02, 21 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, CCXX2.22. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article A∴A∴, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

  • Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
  • Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. --Geoff Capp (talk) 23:12, 11 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

July 2014 edit

  Hello, I'm McGeddon. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to A∴A∴ seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.
