should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.

FAQ for organizations

for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;

instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you.

I highly doubt it's coincidence that the persons you added to the two above - named articles have the same last name as you. Please don't create articles or add content to existing articles about your relatives. It's nearly impossible to maintain the needed detachment to write about

neutrally or collaborate with other editors about someone you have a close relationship with. John from Idegon (talk) 00:49, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Jerry McKenna. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. John from Idegon (talk) 00:55, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising, as you did at East Liverpool, Ohio. John from Idegon (talk) 00:56, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
