Disambiguation link notification for January 9

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Howard Markel, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Residency (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

File permission problem with File:Howard Markel.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Howard Markel.jpg, which you've attributed to A VRT notice was applied over 60 day(s) ago, but no message at VRTS has been found since this tag was applied..

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:LL Markel.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:LL Markel.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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. ///EuroCarGT 21:42, 15 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for June 5

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Howard Markel, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page CDC (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.)

June 2020

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Howard Markel, you may be blocked from editing. This edit is seriously disruptive, particularly since it is you who seems to have the conflict of interest. Please see WP:DISCLOSE. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 01:40, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

All of my edits have been sourced. I have also removed some of the "puffery." I am interested in continuing to make the necessary edits to that all content is accurate and noteworthy. Your recent edit removing content from, and changing the section title of COVID-19 back to Sars-COV2, is removing both accurate and noteworthy information and as well as replacing it with less accurate information (the section title should be COVID-19). Please work with me on finding an appropriate resolution. Thank you. WolverineHistorian (talk) 01:46, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for promotion or advertising, as you did at Howard Markel. Drmies (talk) 02:01, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I am not using the Howard Markel template for advertising! Adding sourced and newsworthy information about expert dissemination of information and knowledge concerning the COVID-19 outbreak is NOT advertising. You should specify which material you find to be promotional WolverineHistorian (talk) 02:13, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

For example - Reflecting the significance of the widespread "social distancing" which took effect during the pandemic, on April 22, 2020 The New York Times chronicled the concept's origins. The article illustrated how Markel and other researchers worked for years "to overcome skepticism and make it federal policy. -- linking a SOURCED ARTICLE about how the subject worked to make "social distancing" federal policy is hardly advertising!
