edit Hi Fishkeyring! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Perfect 10 that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. I'm really grateful for corrections of errors I made in creating the article but its important significant changes are not marked as minor

Hello, Fishkeyring. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Perfect 10 (film), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. The issue is that you have claimed copyright for the poster image you added to the article from which a conflict of interest must reasonably follow. It is in my opinion that quite possibly you incorrectly claimed copyright and should have used the incorrect procedure for adding a "Fair Use" poster image to a film article (which I can't currently quickly find). By the way I never claimed the image that I had placed on the article was from the film, only that it was a scene used in the film. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 15:18, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
- From a practical point of view the image you uploaded can probably be used on the article by hosting on English Wikipedia and reducing the image to the absolute lowest resolution ... and going through a few hoops ... ... see Wikipedia:Non-free content and as an example (not perhaps the best) see The Thirty Nine Steps (1978 film) and File:39 steps 1978 poster.jpg. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 17:03, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
- The image file you uploaded to commons for Perfect 10 was nominated by myself as a copy violation (albeit likely inadvertently and in good faith) and deleted by a patrolling administrator ... experience tells me that would have happened sooner or later if I had not nominated it. You're welcome to appeal that if you feel you can. I created what I hope will be adjudged a "fair use" version of the file (I've been tripped up here before so I am crossing my fingers) and uploaded same to English Wikipedia with relevant taggings and inserted it to the article. You are most welcome to replace it with a alternative "fair use" version if you feel that is an improvement. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 21:24, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
