Chip and Pepper

Hello,

I spent a couple of hours fixing and making the chip and pepper page current. It was highly outdated and did not include current articles or links to the brand. I did not use the page to promote the brand only changing errors and connecting current articles and accurate and current information. I received an email linking me to a list with your name asking me to reach out to you with questions and have you add back what was deleted.

Can you please explain why the contribution was deleted and if you need any further information from me in order to put it back to its accurate state?

I'm the CEO of the company managing all copyrights and trademarks of Chip and Pepper.

Hi Sara. I poked around some and it looks like this is the edit you made that was deleted. Is that correct? If so, unfortunately there are a couple of problems with that edit. First, the tone is way too promotional. Second, Misplaced Pages style is not to not link back to the article subject's website in the body text itself; those links should be either in the references section if they're supporting something in the article, or in the external links section if it's simply a link to the official website.
Misplaced Pages can be very complicated and frustrating to edit; your best bet is to read the links provided on your talk page to get a better feel for what type of edits are likely to be kept and what are likely to be discarded. Once you're a little bit more familiar, consider putting your suggestions for improvements to the Chip and Pepper page on its talk page here: Talk:Chip and Pepper. Just like you we want the article to be accurate and not have outdated information, but we also have to make sure that the article is neutral in tone and doesn't read like an advertisement. I would offer some more help, but I'm going to be traveling soon, so if you have any questions, you may want to ask User:Uncle Milty, who left the helpful links on your talk page. Hopefully he will be able to provide some assistance if you need it. Good luck! 28bytes (talk) 03:26, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
