[edit]Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that in this edit to Dominik Koll, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Materialscientist (talk) 06:37, 15 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi Materialscientist,
I just saw you updated my chances to the Dominik Koll page. I'm working with Dominik and discussed the changes with him beforehand. He said that the site must have been put through google translate. Would you mind reverting it to the changes I made earlier? I can provide a more detailed explanation in my edit summary if you like.
Thanks!
Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Dominik Koll, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

Conflict of interest
[edit]Hello, 23.242.87.63. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Dominik Koll, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:
- avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
- instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
- when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).
Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Jim1138 (talk) 04:43, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

Suggestions
[edit]I would avoid removing existing text as it probably is of interest. Don't give the impression you are effacing the article. Jim1138 (talk) 04:43, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
