Hello, Clsbasel, 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 any other 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 firm 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.)
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Thank you for the info.
I'll get a personal login and use it instead. Just wanted to add a URL change. I'll study the documentation first and then come back with questions.

Hello Clsbasel, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Lionbridge has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.
It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa ( talk) 22:05, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

Hello, Clsbasel. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the articles Lionbridge and CLS Communication, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, please:
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 familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. — Diannaa ( talk) 22:12, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
I concur with Diannaa, especially as:
In January 2015, CLS Communication was acquired by Lionbridge Technologies, Inc., a global translation company based in Waltham, Massachusetts.[11] CLS_Communication

Yes, I work at CLS Communication, a company that was acquired by Lionbridge. Using the user name CLSBasel transparently. I don't think i have a conflict of interest. I'm not trying to promote Lionbridge; just trying to research and update some of the out-dated facts and links that I saw. Clsbasel ( talk) 11:29, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
