I absolutely work as a yacht broker and specialize in Hylas Yachts. I disclose this on my talk page, my username, and through COI requests. I agree I would like to disclose it better. Is it imposible for me to write about the topic or do you think the page does not keep a neutral point of view? I am sorry that the article is so poorly written. I am trying to be as honest and straightforward about my COI. I am new at wikipedia and apologize that I have broken the rules. Please let me know my boundaries. I would like to make a nice, neutral article about Hylas yachts. I appreciate your help.

You still need to select a new username to use. You can check here to see if a name is already taken or not. User:Hersfold
We appreciate that, but for all the reasons you just mentioned you'd be discouraged from working on that article. Is there anything else you'd be interested in editing about if we allowed a username change and unblocked? Daniel Case (talk) 13:36, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
I contributed to the definition of a yacht broker. I specialize in other yachts like Cabo Ricos, Tayanas as well and was thinking of writing articles on those. Jordanship (talk) 13:46, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
If not deleted, I also would like to comment in the discussion of Hylas Yachts. Jordanship (talk) 14:54, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
Also keep in mind of the conflict of interest guidelines. For those companies or organizations you are affiliated with, I strongly encourage you to keep your participation on those articles' discussion pages so that you can provide recommendations to improve articles in which other neutral editors can judge their level of value and neutrality as far as the article is concerned. Thank you, –MuZemike 21:15, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Hylas 45.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:

  • I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
  • I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
  • If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
  • To opt out of these bot messages, add {{bots|deny=DASHBot}} to your talk page.
  • If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

Unsourced BLP's

Just wanted to let you know that there's a separate PROD tag you should use for unsourced BLP's, per WP:BLPPROD, which is {{prod blp}}. It's a different tag because it's a 10-day timeframe, not 7, for the new BLP PROD process. --Darkwind (talk) 21:44, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. I am clearly new at this. RJ (talk) 21:45, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

Regarding this edit... There are 50+ years of lists that we'll be creating. I'm not saying that I disagree with the edit but there are a lot more lists that need to be tagged if you think that one specific article needs a wikify tag. Any suggestions on how to make the lists "prettier" are welcome. Thanks, Dismas|(talk) 03:38, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

Wouldn't it look prettier and be just as informative to consolidate all the external link sections into a single external link section at the page bottom? That was my suggestion, and I would be willing to help. RJ (talk) 15:42, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

Not cruft, just needs work. Bearian (talk) 20:33, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

Agreed. RJ (talk) 20:38, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
