Welcome!

edit

Hello, Sudburysaturday, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page Kate Maki, have removed content without an explanation. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the sandbox rather than in articles.

If you still have questions, there is a new contributors' help page, or you can place {{helpme}} on your talk page along with a question and someone will be along to answer it shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia:

I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if you want to get in touch with me. Again, welcome! —C.Fred (talk) 02:43, 12 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

  • If you are Maki, and you want the picture replaced, then all you need to do is release a free picture. It is inappropriate to just delete the picture, however. —C.Fred (talk) 02:47, 12 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
  • Where is the new, free pic? —C.Fred (talk) 02:52, 12 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Please review the guidelines for editors with conflicts of interest

edit

  Hello, Sudburysaturday. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Kate Maki, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID). Thank you.

By definition, the subject of an article always has a conflict of interest.C.Fred (talk) 02:49, 12 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Kate Maki, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you.

  Please stop continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Kate Maki, without resolving the problem that the template refers to. This may be considered disruptive editing. Further edits of this type may result in your account being blocked from editing. General Ization Talk 03:39, 12 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
