Hello, KhaiRateman, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits did not conform to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may have been removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations verified in reliable, reputable print or online sources or in other reliable media. Always provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Hello, KhaiRateman, 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.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

your edit history

edit

shows that your editing is focused on one living person - which requires a clear understanding of WP:BLP and you will probably be reverted if there is no attempt to explain your edits by edit summaries or comments here that disallow the impressions you are a WP:SPA who is working for the subject of the article.

sorry to press the point

your edits show you are a WP:SPA for the article about Dean Nalder, and you have been adding to the article with items that are not referenced - you should attend to that, by learning more about WP:BLP, WP:COI and possibly WP:PAID - if they are not relevant, then you need to clarify that.

KhaiRateman (talk) 03:09, 12 March 2020 (UTC)@JarrahTree: Hey JarrahTree, Just a Wikipedian here and looking to rectify a couple of things. I am editing just this page to ensure that I am doing it right prior to any further edits. I've cited the sources from a more current profile, especially from the WA Liberal profile. I am looking to edit and am impartial to everything I typed. I am just following Dean Nalder's progress and I am not paid by The person. I have been a long time wikipedia user and would like to contribute to the community on a regular basis. I understand that my writing skills requires more work and if any tips can be given to sound more impartial would be greatly appreciated.Reply


Also, I would like to point out, His Politics section are all outdated and they are all cited from the media. I was just wondering how is this a non-biased cite. How do I go about this and actually update his Politics section without having any repercussions?

Once again, I would like to express my gratitude to you and accept any criticism. Thank you. ((unsigned))

Thanks for going to the trouble to reply - it is always best to look at and inside more than one article - as otherwise WP:SPA does loom.

well worth reverse engineering other liberal politicians articles, looking at them, and the range of sources they utilise...

if you are able to look and check things inside at other articles - they can teach as much as any editor... JarrahTree 03:16, 12 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

edit summaries

get lost and not the location to qualify what you are doing... not a good idea to overload them. Also very important to look for sources that are not liberal party websites, see what WP:RS and WP:CITE might help you with. Kalau bisa, :) JarrahTree 04:09, 12 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
