  Hello Davidw9. 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 Process Media, 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 following the 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. ww2censor (talk) 03:40, 10 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Feral House. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. --Orange Mike | Talk 18:58, 11 January 2012 (UTC)  Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Process Media, you may be blocked from editing. --Orange Mike | Talk 18:58, 11 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

In response to your feedback

Yes, I can see that. You should read the WP:COI page and declare your interest on the talk page of the Prosess Media page --- make clear you will restrict your editing. Then only add material that meets WP:42. Hope this helps.
