SPA and UPE?

Dear Mike,

Could you please read WP:SPA and WP:PAID and confirm that you are a single purpose account and a paid editor? If so you'll need to declare who is paying you. Please also read WP:COI and let any other editors you're working with know these rules as well.


The general problems include copyright violations - you'll need to get releases for material that you've taken from Lindberg's websites and placed onto Wikipedia. Also just quoting Lindberg's lawyer taken from press releases or Lindberg's website doesn't work. Those are considered to be primary sources. We need material that reliable sources, such as newspapers, have mentioned. If Lindberg wants to make a plea in court, Wikipedia is not the place to make the plea, the courtroom is.

You'll need to be neutral in your edits - see WP:NPOV. I'm letting an administrator know about the problems here now @MER-C: and I've reverted your recent edits. You need to let other editors, e.g. me, edit the article. Smallbones(smalltalk) 16:42, 16 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Can you let me know what isn't neutral here? There any many news articles about Greg Lindberg and it seems to be equally as subjective to focus on just the alleged bribery. There have been numerous articles about Lindberg's business practices, personal and professional life. Can you kindly share why the Bribery is the sole focus here?
