Thank you for helping Wikipedia! —

11.03.2010 I am reverting or undoing the contribution by "Boo the puppy" from the Arthur Alan Wolk article because it has violated several Wikipedia policies about living persons: poorly sourced – self published sources (references from blogs), misuse of primary sources and disparaging (biased) content. The content added by “Boo the puppy” is contentious and reports a conflict Wolk is having with bloggers. Not appropriate for information about living persons.

• - Hi Lawrence, there is some discussion at the BLP noticeboard here that you may want to read/comment on regarding the Wolk BLP.

Regarding this pic http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:ArthurWolksmile-2.jpg and the claim that Mr Wolk said you could use it . that is a weak claim of copyright. Issue one is to be sure of who owns the copyright, often this is the photographer but sometimes I have seen the political people do have pics taken and keep the copyright, so that is one and then the best is if the person that owns the picture uploads it them selves, but they can also contact

I wouldn't call knowing Arthur Wolk and asking for his permission to write an article a shameless conflict of interest but i will refrain from future edits now that experienced Wikipedia editors have taken an interest in this. LEW (talk) 18:38, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

With your most recent edit on that AfD, I would suggest that you refrain from posting further to the AfD itself, as required by

WP:COI. If you would like to continue contributing to Wikipedia, there is no shortage of other articles to work on. best wishes, Nomoskedasticity (talk) 19:53, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

Thanks for your kind and polite tip I will follow your advice. 108.25.143.122 (talk) 20:25, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You allege that you merely know Mr. Wolk. You are aware, of course, that you announced that you have been hired by his firm to "redesign their corporate website and provide Internet marketing services," right? Are you being honest, here? Hipocrite (talk) 23:06, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A discussion has begun about whether the article Arthur Alan Wolk, which you created or to which you contributed, should be deleted. While contributions are welcome, an article may be deleted if it is inconsistent with Wikipedia policies and guidelines for inclusion, explained in the deletion policy.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Arthur Alan Wolk until a consensus is reached, and you are welcome to contribute to the discussion.

You may edit the article during the discussion, including to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. SmartSE (talk) 14:01, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, you're not invited to participate in that AfD, per

WP:COI -- so please ignore this message from Smartse. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 14:10, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

I would disagree with this last message and apply good faith and unless you are told by an administrator then please feel free to discuss and comment there.

This is way out of line -- the COI is acknowledged and obvious and the instructions given at

WP:COI are quite clear on this matter. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 14:16, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

Well I disagree, I suggest if you want to restrict this user from contributing that you get an uninvolved administrator to tell him .

Off2riorob (talk) 14:18, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

You disagree with the requirements of

WP:COI? Then take it up there and stop misleading people here. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 14:19, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

I still disagree that you are correct to attempt to restrict this contributor from posting at the AFD of an article he created.

Off2riorob (talk) 14:20, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

All you need to do is to look at Hipocrite's post in the preceding section to understand why this is the right advice. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 14:22, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I still do not see a reason for you to restrict the user from posting in the AFD discussion of an article he created, as I said if you want to restrict him please get Administration to enact the restriction.

I believe there is a better than average chance that the user is involved in some sort of agenda-driven editing which conflicts with Wikipedia's purpose of being a high-quality, online encyclopedia. The editor has focused exclusively on this article, and has not upheld

there is a right way and a wrong way for a business to approach Wikipedia. As long as you heed this advice, you are welcome to edit. I hope you like it here and decide to stay. Thank you. Jehochman ^Talk 14:34, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

First, thank you for identifying your potential conflict of interest with respect to the article Arthur Alan Wolk. Disclosure can, in addition to flak, result in collaboration by other editors with respect to the notability of the subject and the content of the article. It is not a violation of policy to edit articles for friends, or even for public relations purposes, but care should be taken and scrutiny by other editors can be expected. With respect to paid editing: we have no policy in effect forbidding paid editing, or compensated public relations work on behalf of a client. Fred Talk 20:18, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
