Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, but at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Darksiders, did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted by ClueBot.

• Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Note that human editors do monitor recent changes to Wikipedia articles, and administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism.
• Cluebot produces very few false positives, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made should not have been detected as unconstructive, please report it here, remove this warning from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
• The following is the log entry regarding this warning: Darksiders was changed by DarkBlade4658 (u) (t) making a minor change with obscenities on 2010-02-05T16:44:16+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot (talk) 16:44, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Just Cause 2‎, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.Template:Do not delete Fin©™ 15:24, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Please stop adding GameZone reviews or previews to articles - this is a conflict of interest as noted above, as you're an editor there. Thanks! Fin©™ 21:33, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

I've created an entry at the conflict of interest noticeboard, as you ignored both warnings. Thanks! Fin©™ 13:15, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Hello. The issue isn't that GameZone isn't reliable (though I might question that myself), it's that you, while an editor at GameZone, are adding GameZone content to Wikipedia. This is most certainly a conflict of interest, and could be considered spam too. It's fine if you want to edit game articles and such, but you should stop adding GameZone content, regardless of any of its attributes (quality/reliability etc). Another editor expressed similar thoughts, which you can read at the noticeboard link I posted above. Thanks! Fin©™ 16:18, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
