Welcome![edit]

Hello, ZippityDooDah, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits to the page Beth Barr have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and has been or will be removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or in other media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. Additionally, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I understand. Thank you for at least removing his name. You have to understand. This is our legacy. And you are the first thing people go to. Kudos to you but when the info is bad...with all we have worked for (in the past) bad for us. Wikipedia is NOT user friendly and as a writer I appreciate your efforts to keep it legit with primary and secondary sources. But there should be a way to contact someone to update info other than being flagged for "vandalism" because subjects dont have a week to learn Wikipedia. Thank you. If I'm blocked it's no loss...this is not a forum in which I actively participate in but I do appreciate your contribution to equalizing access to information to all demographics.

Edit carefully if the page is about you[edit]

Hello, ZippityDooDah. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Beth Barr, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and 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 which forms all or part of work 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.

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 22:03, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
