Annandale Distillery

In reference to this. "Hello, I'm QuiteUnusual. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Annandale distillery seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. QuiteUnusual (talk) 13:04, 3 January 2019 (UTC)"

I am the social media specialist for the above company and am trying to update our Wikipedia page as a lot has changed since its last up date including what was deleted by yourself. Which was our historic first release. A very rare thing to happen. They were direct references from our website which I was still in the middle of editing. The opinions written in the aricle that was posted by my self were tasting reviews by independant whisky master tasters as featured on our site, and also further information on our inaugural release. — Preceding unsigned comment added by S.weild (talk • contribs) 13:46, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

@S.weild: Please read WP:PAID. You are required to declare your association with the company and strongly encouraged NOT to edit the page. Pasting advertising material onto the page is never acceptable regardless. QuiteUnusual (talk) 14:35, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
@QuiteUnusual: Thanks for the info Re. employee procedure. The page is heavily out of date and about 60-70% inaccurate, so i've been tasked to edit accordingly if possible. People are finding the distillery through Wiki regardless of the inaccuracies on there. I just need to make sure they're edited accordingly. Historical bottlings would normally be considered important, but i'll withhold further detail of them as they're already mentioned on the page. Best Regards.

Dear QuiteUnusual,

I'm new to Wikipedia Editing as you may have noticed and not familiar with many of the "technical" tools. Further, I'm not an IT Guru like you with the programming skills to be able to wipe out people's creative efforts in seconds. I write to protest your actions!

I'm native-born and have excellent knowledge of the subject. There's nothing I added that's untrue, controversial or biased. Also, the content I add is fully discussed with fellow natives and non-natives alike prior to entry. If for some "technical" reasons or unfamiliar editing jargon you decide to clear 24 bytes of a contributor's intellectual (hard) work, I sincerely believe you have done a great disservice. You could have contacted me with a helping hand! May I know your specific reasons for taking out some of my material and your constructive suggestions on how to correct whatever you find incorrect?

Regarding my sources and references, I have made a list of insertions that I plan to fit once my writing is done. If that is part of the problem, then you could rest assured it will be fixed.

I dont know IF this is the right way to contact you. I struggled to find a reply path by clicking on your username but found nothing helpful.

I would appreciate if you get back to me post haste so we figure how best the matter can be resolved.

Best regards

There are a number of articles, linked in the message I left you, that will help explain in detail how to write in the correct style for Wikipedia and how to reference your work. To take one example, content such as "The success of their commercial ventures in major cities across Ghana and Accra in particular can be attributed to their excellent coping skills and thrift." is subjective, unsupported by a reference and expresses a non-neutral view ("excellent" is a matter of opinion). I suggest you read the help guides and policies, like WP:NPOV, and work from there. It is best to include the reference when you add the content as this will both ensure it is properly linked to the right content (i.e., so you don't forget where to put it) and prevent other editors removing your unreferenced content QuiteUnusual (talk) 10:13, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
