Conflict of Interest
editIn the common meaning of the term, I have a conflict of interest. I am personal friends with the Rheaume, the developer of the game in question, and playtested the game before it was released. I have striven to avoid a conflict of interest as defined by Wikipedia. Specifically, I believe I have put the interests of Wikipedia ahead of my or Rheaume's interests. I strove to exercise great caution and avoid any controversial statements. I tried to hold myself to extremely high standards and believe the resulting article is limited to verifiable claims only. If I have accidentally allowed some point of view to creep in, my apologies, please correct it! I'll be keeping an eye on the article to hopefully improve my editing in the future. — Alan De Smet | Talk 07:45, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
- As long as you're not pushing a specific POV (which I do not think you are), then it's OK. BTW, I have nominated this article for DYK if you want to check out my nomination. MuZemike (talk) 08:30, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
Chronotron disambiguation request
editI would like the Chronotron name to be disambiguated. Chronotron is also the name of a popular time-stretching and pitch-shifting software product. Chronotron 1.0 was released in 1999 as a DSP plug-in for Winamp. The brand Chronotron and its logo are registered trademarks in France since 2003. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.99.52.53 (talk) 11:43, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
