Hello, I'm 331dot. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to World News Media have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles are written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 09:54, 22 August 2017 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Scottrouse. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article World News Media, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

• avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
• instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
• when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
• exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must 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 WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 09:54, 22 August 2017 (UTC)

If you believe the material is defamatory, please follow the instructions on this page(click the link). Note that merely being negative information is not necessarily defamatory; as long as information appears in an independent reliable source, it can be in a Wikipedia article. 331dot (talk) 09:56, 22 August 2017 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at World News Media. Your edits continue to appear to constitute vandalism and have been automatically reverted.

• If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Note that human editors do monitor recent changes to Wikipedia articles, and administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism.
• ClueBot NG makes very few mistakes, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made should not have been considered as unconstructive, please read about it, report it here, remove this warning from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
• If you need help, please see our help pages, and if you can't find what you are looking for there, please feel free to place {{Help me}} on your talk page and someone will drop by to help.

Please stop making disruptive edits, as you did at World News Media.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. 331dot (talk) 10:23, 22 August 2017 (UTC)

World News Media - conflict of interest

Your first edit summary for World News Media states, "Page contained defamatory content, broad edits were made to include information about the B2B magazines we produce instead" [my emphasis]. A quick internet search for "Scott Rouse" reveals that a Scott Rouse works for World News Media. Could you please read our COI policies, and maake a declaration before editing the World News Media article again. You should only be making suggestions on its talkpage, not editing the article directly. Edwardx (talk) 11:03, 22 August 2017 (UTC)

These have all been deleted - please see User talk:AmazingCheque81 for more details. Edwardx (talk) 14:11, 4 September 2017 (UTC)
