@Dreamy Jazz: Hey DJ, at the request of the actual Blair Parry-Okeden - she would like certain information removed from her listing. What is the best way to go about making those changes? FFzero612 (talk) 21:15, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
- I have answered the question on my talk page (as you asked it there first). Please respond to the message at the bottom before making any more edits. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 talk to me | my contributions 23:24, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
Welcome!
[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Simplified Manual of Style
Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

[edit]Hello FFzero612. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Blair Parry-Okeden, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.
Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:FFzero612. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=FFzero612|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}
. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 talk to me | my contributions 23:19, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
@Dreamy Jazz: I am not a paid advocate - I am a friend of the family's that is attempting to help a 70 year-old woman remove information she doesn't want public on the internet. I was not attempting to promote anything by removing the unwanted information. FFzero612 (talk) 13:25, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
- FFzero612, ok thanks for the response. Do request this on the talk page and I'll have a look. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 talk to me | my contributions 14:12, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
