This account has been blocked indefinitely as a sock puppet that was created to violate Wikipedia policy. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but using them for illegitimate reasons is not, and that all edits made while evading a block or ban may be reverted or deleted.

-Changes to articles must be backed by [[:WP:RS|reliable sources]]. You made changes to [[Suburban Express]] that talked about one of their business rivals, sourced to SE's own website. That is not a good idea, since their website is not a reliable source, for obvious reasons of [[:WP:COI|conflict of interest]] and [[:WP:NPOV|neutral point-of-view]]. I have reverted the changes. --[[User:Orangemike|<font color="darkorange">Orange Mike</font>]] &#x007C; [[User talk:Orangemike|<font color="orange">Talk</font>]] 12:35, 15 August 2013 (UTC)
-:Thanks for letting me know about the revert. I was attempting to improve this article and might have got a little carried away. I'll go through and ensure that the well referenced content remains. [[User:Verdict78|Verdict78]] ([[User talk:Verdict78#top|talk]]) 13:55, 15 August 2013 (UTC)
-::I really hated having to do that second revert, but your reference was to an opinion piece, which by nature is not going to have the same standards of impartiality that would be expected from actual reportage, since an editorial is by definition intended to persuade as much as to inform. --[[User:Orangemike|<font color="darkorange">Orange Mike</font>]] &#x007C; [[User talk:Orangemike|<font color="orange">Talk</font>]] 20:41, 15 August 2013 (UTC)
-:Yes I was quite surprised with the revert actually, but I do understand what you mean about editorials. My suggestion is to make a very brief statement regarding the rivalry and use the Daily Illini link as a reference. By doing this I feel the editorial could be used. I'll make the change, if you are unhappy with it then you know where to find me to discuss. Again thanks for your input, there's nothing worse than blindly editing a controversial article with no input from anyone else.

-[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, Verdict78. We [[Wikipedia:Welcoming committee/Welcome to Wikipedia|welcome]] your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things [[Special:Contributions/Verdict78|you have written about]] in the article [[Suburban Express]], you may have a [[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest|conflict of interest]] or close connection to the subject.
-All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view]] content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable sources]] and writing with as little bias as possible.
-If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
-*'''Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating''' articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
-*'''Be cautious about deletion discussions'''. Everyone is welcome to provide information about [[Wikipedia:Independent sources|independent sources]] in [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|deletion discussions]], but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
-*'''Avoid linking''' to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see [[Wikipedia:Spam]]).
-*'''Exercise great caution''' so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
-Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view]], [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|verifiability of information]], and [[Wikipedia:Autobiography|autobiographies]].

-Hello [[User:Aghoch]], I apologize for the mistake. Looking at the article I wasn't sure if it should have been deleted, hence my proposed deletion to see if it would lead to more information being published.

-==Cornstalk, Nebraska==
-Thank you for tagging the article for speedy deletion. I created it with an as-yet-unpublished [[Willa Cather]] letter in mind, in which the author makes a curious pun which I didn't quite understand until now; in fact, she is referring to [[Comstock, Nebraska]] (on the [[Loup River|Middle Loup River]] in [[Custer County, Nebraska|Custer County]]) which already has a well-developed Wikipedia page. Had my false assumption ever found its way into print it would have been a dreadful embarrassment; I appreciate your saving me from that particular literary howler.

-== Speedy deletion taggings ==
-Hi Verdict78. I've just had occasion to decline three CSD nominations of yours in quick succession, because the tags you had applied were not appropriate. Please can you review [[WP:CSD|the speedy deletion criteria]] before tagging any more pages for deletion. For reference, the articles I refused deletion on were:
-* [[Cornstalk, Nebraska]] (now a redirect, based on the thread above) - [[WP:A7|A7]] does not apply to places, only to individuals, organisations, web content and events.
-* [[Lenin Gani]] - [[WP:A3|A3]] does not apply to pages which contain content, which this [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Lenin_Gani&direction=next&oldid=584341715 clearly did].
-* [[Jesper Thorne]] - [[WP:G11|G11]] only applies when an article consists entirely of inappropriate advertising, and would be reduced to nothing if the promotional content was removed. In this case, there was only one sentence which warranted removal; the rest of the article was neutral in tone.
-If you need help understanding how the CSD criteria work, please ask. [[User:Yunshui|Yunshui]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Yunshui|<span style="font-size:110%">雲</span>]]&zwj;[[Special:Contributions/Yunshui|<span style="font-size:110%">水</span>]] 13:35, 3 December 2013 (UTC)
