Conflict of Interest

Hi. I notice you've been making edits to articles about subjects you are personally involved in. Why Wikipedia does not have strict rules against this, I ask you to read fully the guidelines on dealing with possible conflicts of interests. This is not a comment on any specific edit, not am I saying that your edits breach any rules, I just thought it'd be helpful for you to read this. Thanks, Darksun 13:43, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please also see WP:BLP#Dealing_with_articles_about_yourself - it is preferable to mass deleting content from Wikipedia. --Darksun 15:37, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

An additional article of use is the WP:COI one. As for a short summary, WP:COI#How to avoid COI edits is pretty good. --GargoyleMT 22:11, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

With regard to your comments on User:Caliwiki123: Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks will lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Nyttend 14:09, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected sock puppets

You are aware, aren't you, that someone will soon be contacting Dr Lu, if he's not already been contacted? All your contributions will be visible for him to see. For your sake, I hope you're not really Dr Sillett. Nyttend 17:15, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected not giving of a damn

Casey Lu is a friend of mine, knows my dispute with Jacob Varkey is (largely) in good humor, and besides this I am a tenured professor and nothing short of felony conviction will threaten my job. Were I you, Nyttend, I should worry more about the pleasure you seem to take in inserting yourself in others' business, and chastising people (in a condescending manner I might add) that you do not even know.

Whatever. However, here at Wikipedia it's our business to investigate behaviour as you have done, even though we don't know you. Last time I checked, Wikipedia was not a place for disputes in good humour — please read Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. If you want to continue editing Wikipedia, please edit as you did to Hiccup, not as you've done anywhere else. Nyttend 16:43, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

Please see Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/67.55.159.44. This account has been blocked as a likely impostor of Dr Sillett and a clearly disruptive one at that. MastCell ^Talk 18:33, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
