== Somerton Court == |
|||
Thanks for your edits to [[Somerton]] about Somerton Court. I've edited it a bit to comply with the [[WP:MOS|Manual of Style]] and added a few citation needed tags - it would be great if you could provide references for these claims. I was particularly interested about "Roger Byron Collins, the Laird of Caithness" for whom I can find no record of the title or holder - could you clarify this? also I did wonder about the similarity with your username on wikipedia.— [[User:Rodw|Rod]] <sup>[[User talk:Rodw|talk]]</sup> 09:03, 18 October 2014 (UTC) |

[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, ByronCollins. 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/ByronCollins|you have written about]] in the article [[Somerton]], 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]]. |

==[[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|Speedy deletion]] nomination of [[:Macedonian Aviation]]== |
|||
[[Image:Copyright-problem.svg|48px|left|alt=|link=]] |
|||
{{Quote box|quote=<p>If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read [[WP:Your first article|the guide to writing your first article]].</p><p>You may want to consider using the [[Wikipedia:Article wizard|Article Wizard]] to help you create articles.</p>|width=20%|align=right}} |
|||
A tag has been placed on [[:Macedonian Aviation]], requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|criteria for speedy deletion]], by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are: |
|||
* It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See [[WP:CSD#G11|section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion]].) Please read [[Wikipedia:Spam|the guidelines on spam]] and [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations]] for more information. |
|||
*It appears to be an unambiguous [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|copyright]] infringement of https://www.key.aero/forum/commercial-aviation/145736-roger-byron-collins-of-welbeck-estate-group-starts-airline-southend-1972. (See [[WP:CSD#G12|section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion]].) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of ''information'', but not as a source of ''sentences''. This part is crucial: ''say it in your own words''. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators '''will be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''. |
|||
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you ''must'' verify that externally by one of the processes explained at [[Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials]]. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission]] for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|Wikipedia's copyright policy]] for more details, or ask a question [[Wikipedia:Help desk|here]]. |
|||
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Macedonian Aviation|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with [[Wikipedia:List of policies|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]].

[edit]Thanks for your edits to Somerton about Somerton Court. I've edited it a bit to comply with the Manual of Style and added a few citation needed tags - it would be great if you could provide references for these claims. I was particularly interested about "Roger Byron Collins, the Laird of Caithness" for whom I can find no record of the title or holder - could you clarify this? also I did wonder about the similarity with your username on wikipedia.— Rod talk 09:03, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
Possible conflict of interest
[edit]Hello, ByronCollins. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Somerton, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's 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 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 independent sources in 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 neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thanks for the explanation on my talk page this is just to say care is needed.

[edit]Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did on Chichester High School For Boys. This violates Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Charles (talk) 13:50, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
Please note l clearly and precisely showed the reference to the ownership and running of Roger Collins' airline Macedonian Aviation on the Southend Airport Aviation Databasesite as follows: http://saadonline.uk/archives/190 There are indeed numerous other verications(ByronCollins (talk) 06:14, 23 August 2018 (UTC))
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Waterbeach. There is nothing in the source to connect Roger Collins to Waterbeach even if he were to be notable which has not been demonstrated. Please read WP:V SovalValtos (talk) 12:35, 23 August 2018 (UTC) The information and cites I gave was 100% correct and clearly shown in these sites: http://saadonline.uk/archives/190 http://www.waterbeach.org/Beach%20News/Publications/2018%20Summer.pdf http://www.twsg.co.uk

Speedy deletion nomination of Macedonian Aviation
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Macedonian Aviation, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
- It appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement of https://www.key.aero/forum/commercial-aviation/145736-roger-byron-collins-of-welbeck-estate-group-starts-airline-southend-1972. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Dps04 (talk) 09:45, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
