User talk:Jlcast33
Welcome!
Hello, Jlcast33, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I notice 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 any other 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 firm 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:
- The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
- Simplified Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!
- Also, I left you a reply on the talk page of your old account. :) A fluffernutter is a sandwich! (talk) 17:33, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

[edit]Hi there. To follow up on Fluffernutter's note, I would advise you to disclose your affiliation with General Growth Properties, if you are employed by or otherwise represent the company. It is beneficial to do this because other others will have confidence that you are editing in good faith, and will be more willing to assist you. It is preferred that you disclose your interest on your user page as well as the talk page of the article. Also please remember to sign your posts on talk pages by typing four tilde characters (~~~~) at the end of your post. That helps everyone keep track of who said what, and when. Thanks. --Drm310 (talk) 18:30, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
