User talk:JohnLunn

Welcome!

Hello, JohnLunn, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

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).

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• Tutorial
• How to edit a page and How to develop articles
• How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
• Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome! —C.Fred (talk) 01:41, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm C.Fred. I noticed that you made a change to an article, St Philip's School, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 01:41, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

Widget.

I invented It sir. JohnLunn (talk) 01:55, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

In which case, you have a conflict of interest and should not be writing about it. Your name should only be added to articles about it if there are verified, independent reliable sources that attest to you inventing it. —C.Fred (talk) 02:29, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Widget (beer), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 02:31, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to St Philip's School. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Gatemansgc (talk) 18:22, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

Dear Sir,so excuse for being slightly ignorant of your protocol,but wiuid you like me to send you the patents?Incidentally,James Blythe,or Lord Blythe, who was chairman of Diageo and formerly, Chief Exec and chairman of Boots asked me to explain to him just before he became chairman of Diego, asked me to explain how it worked.I invented three widgets and sold the last one, the one with the two one way valves, which is the floating one, for a considerable number of noughts.I do apologise if I've compromised your protocol.Best Regards,John Lunn.

I do hope that clears that up sir. JohnLunn (talk) 00:31, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
