Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Security token. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Given that you just came off a block for edit warring on this article, you should be careful about how you proceed. Biker Biker (talk) 08:16, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edit, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

At your suggestion, I have added 4 relevant sources for virtual token authentication.

Conflict of Interest guideline

Hello, 70.190.0.52. 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 Multi-factor authentication, you should consider our guidance on Conflicts of interest and take a look at the Plain and simple conflict of interest guide.

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. Your IP address geolocation indicates you may be linked to a company related to the subject of the article. — Brianhe (talk) 22:51, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

Re: Conflict of Interest guideline

Reply by 70.190.0.52: Thank you, but I have no COI related to this article. I am a private individual and nothing in this article is "articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with". I am a private individual with an interest in online security and Arizona native American history. I note that the article does appears to contain information related to a number of vended products (see article: "Dallas iButton", "CASQUE", "UniOTP", "CryptoPhoto", "RSA SecurID", "Eclypt"), but I did not add that content, nor am I affiliated with any of it. I have not removed that content because they appear cited as examples, rather than as vendor promotion, although some of it ranges close to promotion.

Since 2007, I have added or edited content to the following sections of the multifactor authentication page (I added or edited almost all of the content on the security token page):

1 Background 1.1 Regulatory definition 2 Knowledge factors: "something the user knows" 3 Possession factors: "something the user has" 3.2 Connected tokens 3.2.1 USB tokens 3.2.2 Smartcards 3.2.8 Virtual tokens 3.2.9 Soft tokens 3.4 Mobile phones 3.4.1 Vulnerability to attacking 3.4.2 Assignment to the bearer 3.4.3 SMS one time password 3.4.5 Additional phone token 6 Cost effectiveness 7 Market acceptance 8 Guidance 9 Regulatory requirements 10 Product proliferation 12 Man-in-the-middle attacks 13 Market segments

Note about this issue: Recently, another editor has been attempting to censor pertinent information from these two articles. I have no idea why they have focused on the specific sections they have focused on ("regulatory definition", "virtual tokens", "Vulnerability to attacking", and "man-in-the-middle-attacks"). To try and accommodate their repeated edits, I removed all vendor names and links from the affected sections, I added relevant source links, and have asked them to explain their concerns. They refuse to communicate with me, and have simply reverted to their censored content. 70.190.0.52 (talk) 16:03 18 March 2013 (UTC)
