  Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

September 2015 edit

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at UIUC College of Fine and Applied Arts, you may be blocked from editing. Everymorning (talk) 23:01, 23 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license.

Managing a conflict of interest edit

  Hello, Amjaxn13. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. People with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, see the conflict of interest guideline and frequently asked questions for organizations. In particular, please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, its competitors, or projects and products you or they are involved with;
  • instead, propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing, and autobiographies. Thank you. NeilN talk to me 23:11, 23 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Why are you reverting my changes??? edit

I am trying to update a wiki page, and it keeps getting reverted. I work for the College of Fine and Applied Arts at the University of Illinois, for the Office of Communications. Why do you keep reverting my changes? I know this information to be true, as I have pulled it from our units' websites, and I have worked for this college for 10 years! The way the page was before was a mess, and I have been asked by the Director of Communications AND the Dean of our college to make it more up-to-date and accurate.

I have looked at other college pages for the University of Illinois, and they have much of the same type of information, so what is wrong with ours?
