Trying to change page name to "Ole Smoky Tennessee Moonshine" from "Ole Smoky Distillery" to make it a page about the brand and its multiple locations.(Laurenpeteroy (talk) 17:12, 1 August 2014 (UTC))

See Wikipedia:Moving a page for how to do that. You need to be WP:Autoconfirmed to move pages, which happens automatically when your account is four days old (no problem) and has made ten edits (just one more to go!). Regards, JohnCD (talk) 17:52, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Ole Smoky Distillery has been reverted.
Your edit here to Ole Smoky Distillery was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://twitter.com/https://twitter.com/OleSmoky) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 22:49, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Laurenpeteroy. 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 Ole Smoky Distillery, you may have a conflict of interest.

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 ensuring their edits are verified by 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.
• 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. —    Bill W.    (Talk)  (Contrib)  (User:Wtwilson3)  — 17:49, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

This page lists you as the media contact and public relations person for this establishment. A clear conflict of interest. Please do not edit the page any more, and instead propose any changes you would like to make on the article talk page. —    Bill W.    (Talk)  (Contrib)  (User:Wtwilson3)  — 17:54, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

The above message from me was a little more restrictive than the actual conflict of interesy policy. I've added more information on the article talk page. —    Bill W.    (Talk)  (Contrib)  (User:Wtwilson3)  — 13:28, 18 August 2014 (UTC)
