Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights. Edits to Wikipedia, such as your edit to the page Will Todd, may not contain material from copyrighted sources unless used with permission. It is almost never okay to copy extensive text out of a book or website and paste it into a Wikipedia article with little or no alteration, though you can clearly and briefly quote copyrighted text in the right circumstances. Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:

If you still have questions, there is the Teahouse, or you can click here to ask a question on your talk page and someone will be along to answer it shortly. As you get started, you may find the pages below to be helpful.

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.

Conflict of interest editing

edit

  Hello, TyalgumPresd. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Will Todd, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. — Marchjuly (talk) 09:37, 19 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Ok - understood. Thank you. I know that the artist would prefer no Wiki page as it’s currently such a poor piece of information/resource. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C7:6700:2101:C138:E04A:4CF6:F07F (talk) 09:50, 19 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
If the IP who responded above is TyalgumPresd, please try to remember to login when posting because it will help avoid confusion and make it easier for others to know that the same person who created this account is the same person who is posting. Please also see Wikipedia:Username policy#Promotional usernames as well because usernames deemed to represent a company are not allowed. Please also try to remember to WP:SIGN your talk page comment because this too will make it easier for others to know who is posting. These things, however, only really matter if you plan to continue to use this account to edit content on Wikipedia. If you plan to never use this account again, then just leave it be and there shouldn't be any problem.
As for the comment I know that the artist would prefer no Wiki page as it’s currently such a poor piece of information/resource., please understand that articles are written about subjects not on behalf of or for the benefit (detriment) of subjects. Article content is going to be assessed in accordance with relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines (not in accordance with the subject's wishes), and the neither the subject of the article nor anyone associated with them has any claim of ownership or final editorial control over the article. If the subject of the article has concerns about the content, they can seek assistance as explained here. If Todd Will is someone who is considered to satisfy the Wikipedia notablility guideline for musicians, then an article about him is not going to be something that can easily be deleted through normal Wikipedia processes, particularly if the reason is because he doesn't like it or cannot use it to promote himself. In some cases, though, the subject of an article might be able to request that the article be deleted as a courtesy as explained here. If that's what the subject really wants, then probably the thing to do would be to post a comment at Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard, Politely explain why the subject wants the article deleted and what some others think. If most of the opinions are that the subject is at best borderline Wikipedia notable, then probably there aren't going to be any real objections to the article being deleted and someone may just go ahead and nominate the article for deletion. On the other hand, if the subject is clearly Wikipedia notable, then the consensus may be to keep the article even if the subject would prefer it to be deleted. If the article is just in a poor state, then perhaps it can be fixed in a way that's in accordance with relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines. Deletion is really only a last resort that is done when something is pretty much impossible to fix no matter what. -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:02, 19 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, club, organization, company, or website - I have blocked this account. Please take a moment to either create a new account, or request a change of username of your current account here. The new username must represent only yourself as an individual and comply with Wikipedia's username policy.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text

{{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}

at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names.

 Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 15:42, 19 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
