Unsourced additions and Conflict of interest[edit]

There is no point whatsoever in repeating the same, totally unsourced, promotional claims, that have already been deleted from the article, here.
Please read the article history, and you can see that a series of experienced editors have repeatedly deleted this, and similar material, please do not re-add it.
The reasons for deletion include:-"unsourced promotional additions" "not the kind of content we are looking for" "needs much pruning" etc.
Please try to understand this is Wikipedia's page about Abdulaziz Al-Babtain, not Abdulaziz Al-Babtain's page.
Anyone related to him, or any of his companies or other organizations, has a conflict of interest, so should not be editing the article, but proposing changes, including references to reliable, independent, sources, on this talk page.
Proposals to add promotional, or unsourced information, will be refused. - Arjayay (talk) 09:41, 2 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sul59

Please read that warning notice carefully - it states "Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia" We have had several accounts from the "abdulaziz al-babtain group", including yours, and this appears to be a coordinated effort to promote the group on Wikipedia.

As has been repeatedly explained (at User talk:Arjayay, at Talk:Abdulaziz Al-Babtain, at User talk:Ibkib, at User talk:Ibrahimaldawoud), anybody connected to Abdulaziz Al-Babtain, his group, his foundation, or in any other way, has a conflict of interest so should NOT be editing the page themselves. Moreover, most of the additions that have been repeatedly added are not sourced to reliable independent sources, are promotional in tone, rather than from a neutral point of view, and are not encyclopedic, so are not suitable for inclusion in one of our articles.

If you wish to suggest small, encyclopedic, additions, in a non-promotional tone, please suggest these at Talk:Abdulaziz Al-Babtain citing reliable independent sources (not things published by, or in anyway connected to, the group, but truly independent) the to support each point you want added. These will then be considered by a neutral editor, who will decide if they should be added to the article, or not.

Please note, we are looking for quality, not quantity, and our articles are Not resumes, or Curriculum vitae, nor a means of promotion. We do not want, and will not add, long lists of "Accolades", "Awards", "Tributes" or other non-encyclopedic material, which members of the group have repeatedly tried to add.

Please try to understand, this is not Abdulaziz Al-Babtain's page, but Wikipedia's page about Abdulaziz Al-Babtain - so will also include any valid criticism, as long as that is sourced to similar reliable independent sources. - Arjayay (talk) 08:50, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
