Hello, EBResearcher. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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:
In addition, you must 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 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. -- Ronz ( talk) 20:42, 5 July 2017 (UTC)

Yikes, I was trying to do some quick content additions but will have to look at the COI stuff pretty carefully. EBResearcher ( talk) 22:40, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
Ok, I think I removed any direct links to my website. Is it ok to list some documents? I have tried to check for more neutral language. Hope it's getting better. EBResearcher ( talk) 23:01, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
Hi EBResearcher. You might also be interested in this wiki article on earthbag construction:
I have access to this source [2], if you don't have it already, feel free to drop me an email if you want this source.

At first glance that's a great article. Yes, wonder if the source is Owen or Kelly who trained me. What's the best way to proceed? EBResearcher ( talk) 22:42, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
I wonder if the history section on the Appropedia page is more appropriate in Wikipedia, but some of the construction techniques mentioned in the Wikipedia page should be transferred to Appropedia? I don't have time to get into it now... EBResearcher ( talk) 23:03, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Earthbag Edge of 7 School Basa Nepal.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
{{
Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 15:23, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
