Our conflict of interest policy edit

  Hello, Solarmanagement1. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you have an external relationship with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

  • Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.

Sorry, but we don't permit company accounts edit

 
Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose.

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice. Thank you.

Somerville article edit

Hi Solar, judging from the above, you're being asked to create a new user account, one that doesn't contain a company name. Once you have done that, the best place to propose your changes is on Talk:Jimmy Somerville. I have that page on my watchlist so I'll look out for your post, and I'll help if I have time.

HI Sarah, thanks, I've changed the user name (although replying to this message - but the article I want to change is Leo Abrahams not Jimmy SomervilleSolarmanagement1 (talk) 18:40, 23 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

I've put Leo Abrahams on my watchlist too, so if you post on Talk:Leo Abrahams, I'll see it. Sarah (talk) 22:05, 23 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi Sarah, I've sent you an email Solarmanagement1 (talk) 09:42, 29 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
