An editor in University Relations at Virginia Tech, I am making significant changes to Virginia Tech's Wikipedia page in order to align its content with university style and branding. It is never my intention to offend other contributors by these edits; our vice president has tasked communicators across University Relations to tend to Tech's page more closely.Jbcrichton (talk) 08:19, 9 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:COI and User:Jimbo Wales/Paid Advocacy FAQ. As a general rule, people should avoid editing an article if they have a strong affiliation to the subject.--♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 09:44, 9 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In this case, an affiliation with the subject is helpful, especially to ensure that all information is correct.

Virginia Tech reversions

[edit]

It's customary that after another editor reverts material you added to an article that instead of beginning an edit war by readding the material you instead open a discussion on the article's Talk page to seek consensus. I've gone ahead and done that for you so please join the discussions. ElKevbo (talk) 21:56, 29 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, ElKevbo. Please know that I genuinely appreciate your efforts to introduce me to the proper protocols and procedures for maintaining a viable Wikipedia page and that my "reverts" were in no way intended to start an edit war. My sole intent is to ensure that the university's page contains accurate information, and I regret that I never noticed the presence of discussions. That said, I'm happy that you've initiated the discussion, and I look forward to participating.Jbcrichton (talk) 23:09, 29 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
