July 2011[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen (JSMathBlaster) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.
There are two issues with this:
- It is possible that you have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization.
- Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.
Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guidelines concerning editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages, as you did to JumpStart. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to History of JumpStart products. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

- We understand Wikipedia's policies against soapboxing, advertising and promotion, however all we did was moved the outdated information from the JumpStart page straight to the History of JumpStart products page. We did not write any of the information that we moved to that page. If someone else would like to move this outdated information so it doesn't come from us, that would be great. Sorry for any confusion. JenniferKennedy (talk) 17:37, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- The tone was a little non-NPOV. I'm sorry, but all editors need to adhere to that policy of neutral point of view. Besides, you cited no sources.Jasper Deng (talk) 17:40, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- Well then can it be removed from the current JumpStart page? That is directly where that content, not written by us, comes from. We attempted to move it to the History of JumpStart products page because it does not refelect the current JumpStart brand and did not want Wikipedia users to be misled.

- Another problem: You're saying that "we are doing...", which is not allowed - your account can only represent you. I would remove the text only because it is unsourced.Jasper Deng (talk) 17:49, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- It also seems that you're still interested in promoting your company's interests (whether it's advertising or not), which means your conflict of interest is becoming a problem.Jasper Deng (talk) 17:53, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you for your feedback. I apologize for the misunderstanding here. Just to clarify, my interest here is not to promote my company. It is to help get the most current information to Wikipedia in the correct place, which I know, as an employee of the company, does not describe the JumpStart entry. However, I understand the conflict of interest. I am doing my best not to invoke bias and will look into other ways to have this page updated without that conflict of interest. Thank you again for your feedback. JenniferKennedy (talk) 18:02, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- Trying to update articles about your own company on behalf of that company is what you're trying to do, judging from your comment there. I'm sorry but given your edit history, I'm going to have to suggest that you propose all changes on the article talk pages so other editors can check them, and overall, just don't edit on behalf of an organization which is not allowed. What I just described is the way you can fit in here without causing problems.Jasper Deng (talk) 18:06, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
