February 2015

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Dominion of Melchizedek has been reverted.
Your edit here to Dominion of Melchizedek was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/user/dpashore) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 11:26, 24 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is your only warning; if you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Yopie (talk) 17:29, 24 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

DoM and conflict of interest

There's a chance, given your edit history and the similarity of you name to the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs on the DoM's website, for a conflict of interest to exist here. Either way, you'll find adding material is far easier if you can get something halfway like a reliable source to run a story on the shiny, new, hopefully non-fraudulent DoM.

If you want things like the motto changed, then a statement on the DoM website is fine for that (although the fact the seal remains unchanged will be problematic). Likewise, if you want to distance yourselves from the previous activity, then a statement will help (although the language here will treat it as an unverified statement attributed to the DoM website). We can't have the unsupported detail/fluff that's recently been added to the DoM entry over on MicroWiki. Bromley86 (talk) 08:17, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
