Hello, Cariboukid, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed 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 undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. 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.

One 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. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

You are the subject of a discussion at the Conflict of Interest noticeboard here. BlueSalix (talk) 03:18, 21 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi Cariboukid. I have responded at the COI section referred to above; i think it's fairly clear you are innocent of the violation BlueSalix is raising. To assuage his worries, however, it might be reasonable to steer clear of Caribou Coffee, to make suggestions on the talk page (i'll be happy to keep it watchlisted, to help out if i can), or to ensure that nothing you add could conceivably be taken as promotional. I hope you continue editing, Cheers, LindsayHello 17:34, 23 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
Lindsay, I welcome you to take a look at the recent sourcing correction I made to the my edit in question on Caribou Coffee, and advise if promotional. This updates the edit's references to online viewable sources, as the newspaper I previously referenced pulled its online archives resulting in my edit effectively becoming RS.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Delta Connection destinations, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Santa Fe and Sault Ste. Marie. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Sources for Destination Tables

edit

In reference to my recent edit on Stewart International Airport, I see in the history that you have added the source for the Detroit route multiple times, with it being removed (by another frequent aviation editor). The most recent discussion about this occured in Archive 14 on WP:Airports and for the most part, we have kept sources for future, terminating, and frequently challenged routes. Typically, the sources of the challenged routes are put in hidden notes with brief explanation not to remove as a result of being challenged. The main idea behind this is that it is very easy to verify flights with Airline Route Maps, FlightAware, Google Flights, and Timetables. This makes the sources unecessary unless an editor feels they are needed for a particular reason. This is by no means an official guidline on WP:Airports though. As a result, I will not change this further, but I would suggest that you put a hidden note as to why the source is necessary in this particular case so other editors do not remove it. Thanks!

fix citation issue that you tagged?

edit

@Cariboukid: Hi! I noticed you tagged with this edit. Did I fix the issue that you were wondering about? I wasn't sure what you were getting at. Thanks!G1729 (talk) 07:36, 5 February 2017 (UTC) @Cariboukid: I just noticed you said "RS" for reliable source? The person talking is credited as the 'major architect' of the executive order by the LA Times. See Development section of the article. Could you remove the citation needed tag if this fixes/clarifies everything of concern? Thanks!G1729 (talk) 07:50, 5 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

@G1729: The citation in question gives us a time within a recording that edit-supporting comments were made, but the citation doesn't tell us where you found (or more so, where someone else can find) the recording. To that end, I added the question of potential RS because without a source for readers to verify against, we don't know if it came from a reputable source (news agency, archives, researcher, etc.) or from an uncredited random something found on a video sharing site; your post above tells me it is clearly the former (LA Times), but LA Times is not identified in your citation. To address the issues I flagged, please expand your citation to also include at least the publisher's information, the URL of the webpage where the recording can be found, and a date you retrieved it. Citation templates for different source types are available in the edit screen -- place your cursor where you want the citation inserted, then above the text box find and click "Cite", then click "Templates" and select from the drop-down list, fill in the boxes appropriately once the chosen template appears on your screen, check your work by clicking preview, select insert when satisfied with your citation. Feel free to drop me a reply on my talk screen if you have any questions or want help with how to put together the citation. Cariboukid (talk) 17:44, 5 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Cariboukid: Thanks for the reply! Are you saying that a Fox News clip is not a reliable source of what Stephen Miller said? E.g., another source (such as the LA times) must comment on what Stephen Miller said the purpose of the executive order is for the quote to be relevant? I thought a Fox News link was previously included, but someone may have removed it.G1729 (talk) 18:53, 5 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
@G1729: No, I am not saying a Fox News video clip isn't a reliable source. As I flagged your citation, I am saying the "where to find the source" information is not complete, and not knowing where it came from raises the potential of any citation being considered RS. Example: others reading the article may want to visit the source behind your edit, perhaps to verify for themselves or use it as a source in a research paper, presently they would have to search externally (Google?) against the information you provided, and may or may not reach the exact source you used, thus may or may not get the exact same video clip or information you based your edit on. You have most of the information needed for a viable citation present already, but not enough for others to readily view or verify it directly; at a minimum, please add a full URL for the page you used as your source. Additional information beyond that (publisher, publication date, accessed date, etc.) is helpful for those wanting to verify or research something they read in an article. If you are unsure what or how to include in a citation, feel free to ask, or take a look at the citation template page. Cariboukid (talk) 00:04, 6 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Cariboukid: ok sure thing; thanks for the clarification. I thought I'd added the link before. Would you mind adding it? I don't want to be accused of challenging someone's edit if they removed the link because my understanding is Volunteer Marek said he would stop me from editing the page if I did so. Because I can't remember whether I previously included the link (which I usually do), I'm hesitant to add it myself. Here is a link. http://video.foxnews.com/v/5302260366001/ Thanks again for the detailed clarification.G1729 (talk) 00:24, 6 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
@G1729: As requested, done and done. :) URL added, and I cleaned up the reference to identify show, network, host and guest. I also cleaned up the first reference for same show, so both are consistent, but each having their respected event times within the show. I would, however, suggest you revisit the first citation, maybe shorten its quote for specificity; that sentence about the Obama administration's list of countries seems superfluous to the infiltration part you're calling out. Cariboukid (talk) 05:54, 6 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Cariboukid: Thanks so much! I will have a look at that quotation in the cite and try to pare it down.G1729 (talk) 06:09, 6 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
