Hi Ritchie333, Per your request, I revised the Wikipedia profile for Alexandre Mars and incorporated references as you suggested. There are a lot of great citations here. I also looked through the rules for writing a living person bio, to ensure that I was within all requirements. Take a look and let me know if this is to your liking. Thanks so much for your time.

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. While
objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be
a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. If you are only here to promote
Alexandre Mars and his media presence, you have no place editing on Wikipedia.

At your request, the accounts User:Andamanes and User:Jennchowdhury have been blocked. This is now the only account you should use. Be sure to copy the conflict-of-interest notice from Jennchowdhury to this account. -- MelanieN ( talk) 17:24, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

Hello! Jennepicfoundation,
I noticed your article was declined at Articles for Creation, and that can be disappointing. If you are wondering or curious about why your article submission was declined please post a question at the
Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the
Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there!

You are more than welcome to continue making quality contributions to Wikipedia. Note that because you are a logged-in user, you can create articles yourself, and don't have to post a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for Creation if you prefer.
Thank you for helping improve Wikipedia!
Sulfurboy ( talk) 19:29, 9 July 2015 (UTC)Whoa, Jenn! You've been stuffing the article full of promotional stuff and we can't have that. I was only going to delete the latest batch; the External Links you added are inappropriate, except for the website, and so was the Press list. But I see someone has now reverted everything you added over the last few days. They are entitled to do that, per WP:COI. That means you are going to have to get consensus on the article's talk page for your edits from now on. I will add back a few things I thought were OK, but the rest will have to be looked at by the community. And don't even try to add back all those external links to Twitter (not allowed) and his blogs and so on. As for the "Press" section, that was pure hype, I doubt if any of it should be there. We had been allowing some edits from you because they seemed neutral and encyclopedic, and I thought you understood the rules. But after this latest batch - no. From now on, ask at the article's talk page if you want anything added to the article. Sorry, but you pushed the envelope too far. -- MelanieN ( talk) 19:53, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
Hello, I'm
DissidentAggressor. I noticed that you recently removed some content from
Alexandre Mars without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate
edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the
sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on
my talk page. Thanks.

You may be
blocked from editing without further warning the next time you
use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising, as you did at
Alexandre Mars . See further discussion on

Hello Jennepicfoundation, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to
Alexandre Mars have been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without evidence of
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. Justlettersandnumbers ( talk) 15:42, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
Hello, Jenn. This is to let you know that I have made a recommendation about you and your editing here. Basically I am suggesting that you should not be allowed to edit the Alexandre Mars article any more. I thought your recent addition of the "Epic Foundation-approved" material was the last straw, a strong violation of your requirement to keep your editing neutral. I don't have anything personal against you, but I feel that you are not following Wikipedia's rules for COI editors. There will be a discussion by the community, lasting at least several days, and you are welcome to contribute your own comments to it. -- MelanieN ( talk) 23:27, 24 December 2016 (UTC)

It appears I have made a mistake. I misread your user name. I do apologize for the block, but have unblocked you. I might suggest a user-name change so this doesn't happen in the future, perhaps "Jenn at Epicfoundation" which to me is not confusing. (To emphasize, this is a suggestion, not a requirement). Again, my profuse apologies. 78.26 ( spin me / revolutions) 18:56, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
The discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents has resulted in a clear editing restriction for you. There is consensus that you are now banned from making any direct edits at the article Alexandre Mars. You may, however, use the article's talk page Talk:Alexandre Mars to participate in discussions and to suggest that changes be made to the article by other editors. Any direct edits to the article page made by you will lead to an immediate indefinite block of your account.
This editing restriction was decided upon by the community of Wikipedia editors and it is indefinite. You may appeal the decision at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them here at your talk page. De728631 ( talk) 02:21, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
Hello and
welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
Thank you. Toddst1 ( talk) 00:23, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
Hi Jennepicfoundation. Thanks again for being mindful of the COI guideline and terms of use while you are editing Wikipedia on behalf of your employer. Please keep in mind that declaring and participating on the Talk page is the minimum.
Please review WP:COITALK.
(pausing while you read that... :) )
What this is about, is that it is really not OK to be in Wikipedia only to advocate for your employer. An editor can mind the letter of PAID by declaring their COI and not editing directly, but still violate WP:SOAPBOX on the talk page. At some point every editor needs to take on the values of Wikipedia and strive for NPOV content. And ideally at some point you will stop being a single-purpose account and will edit elsewhere to improve Wikipedia - not required of course, but ideal. Does that make sense? Jytdog ( talk) 17:03, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
Hey Jytdog! Yes, this definitely makes sense. Being 100% honest, that's been our goal from the beginning to LISTEN TO THE EDITORS and try to PROGRESS from what they're saying. First, one editor said it's too PR so we took out everything that seemed promotional. Then, they said the sources we were giving were not acceptable, so recently I came across another wiki page with sources that we also have and asked the editors on the talk page if those sources are acceptable and whether we could also use them to edit Alexandre's page. I don't think working from the feedback of our previous correspondence and then going back to the page to say "hey, we listened to what you had to say and here's what we found that we think would be acceptable based on your guidance" is badgering, do you? There's a loooong history here so I'll save you the trouble of having to go through it all and just come to me- the source. At this point, I understand what differentiates a promotional wikipedia article from an encyclopedic one. I'm just having trouble understanding why we can't add more information to this page, if we really are here to make a good article for Alexandre Mars 2) why do the sources used on one page- literally, the exact platform- can't be used for another?
