Hello Berrely! Why open proxies and VPNs are blocked from editing in Wikipedia? -- Vitaium ( talk) 04:03, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
Hi Vitaium, as you can see at WP:PROXY, open proxies and VPNs generally are used by sockpuppets and LTAs to bypass IP blocks and checkuser checks. If you have a valid reason do so, you can also request an IP block exemption to bypass these IP blocks. — Berrely • Talk∕ Contribs 07:11, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
Hi, I'm not sure the source you added for Arundel's claim to be founder of the Alexandria Times is adequate? It's very primary (being a US trademark publication), and, at least in the form it opens in my browser, it merely shows me that someone of Arundel's name who lived in Alexandria applied for something; the reference as it currently appears doesn't actually show the Alexandria Times' trademark (though it must surely be there). Is there any way this can at least be formatted in such a way that it demonstrates to the reader that the fact is actually true? Also I think we should be very cautious about such heavily conflict-of-interest editing. When someone identifies themselves as the very person they are writing about, it's a bit problematic that they charge in and edit the article. Thank you for not reinstating the rather promotional material he wrote about himself; I would very much prefer to see that discussed at the talk-page than simply accepted. Thanks!

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

Please stop vandalizing the Hunter Wise Financial Group page. Futures Magazine did not do any research. If you bothered to check the original GOVERNMENT PRESS RELEASE (yes, believe it or not, the CFTC is a U.S. GOVERNMENT organisation), you would have noticed that Futures Magazine simply copied from the CFTF press release. Futures magazine has no copyright on U.S. government issued press releases. Duh. Thank you for your cooperation, and I hope you research your edits in future before making them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by EricSavage ( talk • contribs) 22:18, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
