Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Sroth0616. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the COI 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 (you can use 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 which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Home Lander (talk) 18:41, 14 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Sroth0616, You are adding many wikilinks to a number of articles. Please read MOS:LINK, esp. MOS:OVERLINK (What generally should not be linked: The names of subjects with which most readers will be at least somewhat familiar. This generally includes major examples of: countries (e.g., Japan/Japanese, Brazil/Brazilian), geographic features (e.g., the Himalayas, Pacific Ocean, South America), and MOS:REPEATLINK (only once). Also useful are MOS:COMMONWORDS, WP:NOPIPE (esp. regarding edits such as public transportation), WP:EASTER. Otherwise much of your work is futile and will be reverted sooner or later. WikiHannibal (talk) 10:06, 9 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

  The above notice also applies to your numerous and unnecessary changes to aviation pages, such as American Airlines Flight 11. Please read and comply with WP:OVERLINK. Thank you, David J Johnson (talk) 11:06, 9 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

I am sorry. Sroth0616 (talk) 01:57, 10 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Your edits on Merchant Marine subjects

edit

Do your edits of the articles United States Merchant Marine and United States Merchant Marine Academy unintentionally exclude the state maritime academies or does the program only include the Merchant Marine Academy. If the program also includes the state maritime academies then the linking you provided is in error. If the program includes only USMMA midshipmen then my concerns don't exist. Some research into the reference used for that sentence should be done. Cuprum17 (talk) 14:59, 8 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Breeze Airways, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page CCO (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

  Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Rikki Rockett, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. - FlightTime (open channel) 22:41, 19 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use disruptive, inappropriate or hard-to-read formatting, as you did at Blues Saraceno, you may be blocked from editing. There is a Wikipedia Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. - FlightTime (open channel) 22:45, 19 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Please stop WP:OVERLINKING and changing US to United Sates, it's incorrect. Thank you. - FlightTime (open channel) 22:48, 19 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
At Churchill Airport, the link to Churchill, Manitoba was fine. Why change it to [[Churchill, Manitoba|Churchill]], [[Manitoba]]? Also, why link "scientific research", or "Canada"? It's really important you read MOS:LINK, as you're making a lot of work for people. Thanks. Magnolia677 (talk) 15:02, 20 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at North American Aviation. BilCat (talk) 17:08, 29 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

User talk:SS El Faro

edit

Hi, Sroth0616. I noticed that you moved Talk:SS El Faro to User talk:SS El Faro. Judging by your comments, it seems that this was an unintentional mistake. In the future, if you want to discuss improvements for the article, please do so by clicking |new section| and writing your comments there, without moving the page. I have asked for an admin to move it back. Thanks, Destroyer (Alternate account) 01:11, 20 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hello Destroyer (Alternate account),

Thank you for letting me know.

The reason this happened in the first place, is I wish to include all of the information below to the wiki however, I am not sure where to include the info.

Reference 17 is a deadlink.

Add reference to NTSB Investigation Number: DCA16MM001[1]

SS El Faro coordinates “latitude 23.38125N, longitude 073.9111W” (DMS: 23°22'52.5"N 73°54'40.0"W) SOURCE: https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/pdf/ElFaro-NTSB-full.pdf; URL, PDF (Pg. 2 (on Adobe Reader Pg. 19))

Overlinking

You need to stop linking common countries names as it's disruptive. Take a look at Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Linking#What generally should not be linked and SdkbBot who reverts those links. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 10:29, 17 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Hersheypark. See MOS:OVERLINK; particularly the sections mentioning duplicate and repeat links as well as locations that should already be clear to most readers.

Junctions in a highway infobox

edit

Back in the 2000s, we received feedback from an WP:FAC nomination of an article related to the number of junctions listed in an infobox. Because of that feedback, WP:USRD/STDS says that we limit the total number to 10 for American highway articles, and we don't always even list that many. Otherwise, an infobox may dominate the length of an article, which is undesirable. Imzadi 1979  22:54, 25 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

User: Imzadi 1979 ,
First, my most sincere apology for not replying back in a timely manner. (Life as a college student — I know not a great excuse but is the truth)
Second, thank you for expecting why the limit for highway junctions ("JCT") is 10.
Third (a question), what qualifies a particular JCT to be added? Such as destinations along a highway past JCT, average ("avg.") traffic count, total length of highway, etc.
