Hello, Vinixglobal, 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 another 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 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:

I changed my username to reflect me as an individual. I appreciate the feedback
From what I read I am not at COI with this article as I am not, work for or represent that organization.
Thanks for the heads up tho! I've always been interested in contributing to Wikipedia. This is where i stated and plan to do more, especially with your feedback and the assistance you provided. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Neurosys zero ( talk • contribs)
Well, since we are on the subject: firstly, I do not need to avoid any lack of transparency if I am speaking the truth. This isn't a conspiracy involving the Masons in Angels Vs. Demons. This is a good project and community that deserves to be recognized. I asked what he felt would help keep 2600hz on wikipedia because while I use Wikipedia everyday, I never contribute, so i did not know exactly what was expected. I did a quick google search to locate the additional sources and I elaborated on certain things in the article. I have seen much less "credible" articles on Wikipedia over my years and it is honestly disappointing that you as an admin appear to be so hell bent on deleting their existence on Wikipedia based on some unknown agenda that clearly doesn't line up with the spirit of Wikipedia.
While I know the 2600hz team, I am in the telecom industry and the owner of Vinix. An ITSP not controlled or affiliated with 2600hz, based in Miami. I choose (as have many other companies) to use the software developed by the 2600hz project for my network and I can tell you that many VoIP companies today would not exist if not for the hard work of the 2600hz team. Their presence on wikipedia is important because other aspiring telecoms who cannot afford 500k and up in licensing fees might learn of the 2600hz project on Wikipedia. 2600hz could have been like every other company and closed source their work charging big money for that. Instead they choose to give it to the world for free! That's an admirable and amazing thing to do for the telecom, technology and world as a whole - who in the 100 year history has been a very closed and tightly controlled industry (Cartel most would say). My company would still be slaves doing service work for the large telecoms (AT&T. Verizon, Comcast. Etc) if not for the work of open source projects such as 2600hz. And while they may not get fame, WSJ recognition or you don't see them on your TV and in Facebook/Google ads, it doesn't make them any less relevant or worthless. Quite the contrary: It's their work that many many companies you see in the public rely on! With your logic, this is like saying the that the web server software Wikipedia choose to run on does not deserve a Wikipedia article because you never hear of them, or the programming languages used due to their not being spoken about In the world's headlines. For you to threaten their presence on a respected information service by trying to spin the Wikipedia guidelines negatively against them is irresponsible and unwarrantedly aggressive. You obviously put your search skills to work into seeing the 50+ individuals on IRC and the 2600hz channel and saw the relevance of 2600hz. But all you saw was "coordination' as opposed to simply realizing the actual relevance of the 2600hz project.
It would appear from any reasonable and neutral individual that you are overstepping your trust within the Wikipedia community as an admin. It is not a bias opinion. It is a fact and It is clear that 2600hz is not only relevant, but they have been for quite some time - yet you still seem to want to engage in this crusade to remove them from Wikipedia. Is you don't appreciate my description of your behavior, perhaps you should actually pause and re-evaluate that behavior rather than blind attempt to justify it. neurosys_zero ( talk) 03:27, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
I hope you are genuine and I am incorrect. For me, I feel it important for them to have a presence on the worlds largest information resource as I am somewhat of an idealist. If not for amazing open source projects such as this one, I would not have my career in technology. I do not feel the intent was to "vote stack" as it was simply to show support for the relevance of the organization and its positive affect on the community. In addition to other people who are looking for such a project to see it on Wikipedia. But correct me if i am wrong: the issue at this point is not so much the resources or citations.. but the "layout"? It reads too much like a white paper or advertisement? I needs to just be cut and dry about the organization, its projects and in the discussion, if there is a fact it needs to be cited. Is this correct? neurosys_zero ( talk) 03:55, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
As I noted here, we want to do away with that section once the sources are used to support information in the prose of the article instead. For example, the link you added could be used to support a statement in the "history" or a new "products" section that describes the product instead. VQuakr ( talk) 03:56, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
Ok I think I'm understanding more clearly. I am going to rewrite a majority of it and take your suggestion and read the user pace draft and perhaps you can give it a run over and tell me if I'm going in the right direction? neurosys_zero ( talk) 03:59, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
Am i on the right track? /info/en/?search=User:Neurosys_zero/2600hz neurosys_zero ( talk) 05:00, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
I used Ooma since they are very well known, on television commercials daily and sold on the shelves at Best Buy. Are you in the US? neurosys_zero ( talk) 05:15, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
Note I added a reference next to Ooma pointing to its own Wikipedia page ;) neurosys_zero ( talk) 05:21, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
Ok but it is relevant to the statement that big companies work with and leverage 2600hz software. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Neurosys zero ( talk • contribs)
Cool. You think so far this is ok to start? Replace the current with this one? I actually enjoy this hehe generally speaking, If i wanted to keep contributing? What would be the best way to go about it? By that I mean like looking for subjects I'm familiar with? Or just when I look up an article, contribute if I feel or see a need? neurosys_zero ( talk) 20:15, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi Neurosys zero! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. Be our guest at the Teahouse! The Teahouse is a friendly space where new editors can ask questions about contributing to Wikipedia and get help from peers and experienced editors. I hope to see you there!

Wanna work on it some more? Darren Schreiber ( talk) 04:49, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
I'd be happy to! neurosys_zero ( talk) 14:46, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
You should read WP:WTAF very carefully! You should read the header of articl, too. What you are doing in List of SIP software can be seen as a vandalism. -- Kgfleischmann ( talk) 20:32, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
I did read it. First statement is CLEAR that is is NOT A POLICY OR GUIDELINE. What I am posting is accurate and relevant information with links to the project, on two SIP platforms that you keep deleting. That is against the very fundamentals of Wikipedia. Accurate information belongs on that list. No your preference. neurosys_zero ( talk) 11:39, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Mean as custard ( talk) 11:49, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
In what way do you conclude adding relevant and accurate information as "disruptive editing"? This individual keeps deleting it based in the fact that there is no article. There is no article because there was a recent discussion as to why the 2600hz project article was not "noteworthy". Regardless, he points to an essay about making articles but this is not a guideline. If anything he is removing accurate information. Please accurate explain how this is against policy, rather than threats. Again, I would bet that this is against the very spirit and intention of Wikipedia. neurosys_zero ( talk) 14:01, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
