Hello. It appears you have a conflict of interest with some of the articles you've editted. Please keep in mind that Wikipedia has a strict conflict of interest policy and neutral point of view policy. Generally, we urge contributors to focus on articles they are not affiliated with. However, if you'd like to continue contributing to these articles, I can give you a few tidbits of suggestions. The first is that you propose your changes on the talk pages of the articles you'd like to update, or that you create a subpage with your changes and propose it to be used instead. The second is that you declare your COI on the article's talk page on any articles that you edit where you have a conflict of interest. That will help other editors assume good faith about your edits. The third is that you avoid being paid to edit. Paid editors are blocked immediately. Hope this helps and good luck with your contributions.--v/r - TP 19:50, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
Welcome
editHello, AZ5461, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I notice that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been reverted for this very reason.
To reduce the chances of deletion, you might like to draft your article before submission, then ask me or any other editor to proofread it. To start creating a draft article, just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit that page as you would any other. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.
The one firm rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. It is also worth noting that Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which specifically link them to one company or corporation. If your username does have such a name, it would be advisable for you to request a change of username.
If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have!
