Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, 24.43.8.170. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Matt Lange, you may have a conflict of interest. People with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, see the conflict of interest guideline and frequently asked questions for organizations. In particular, please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, its competitors, or projects and products you or they are involved with;
  • instead, propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, the Wikimedia Foundation'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.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing, and autobiographies. Thank you. Widefox; talk 11:02, 4 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Be advised that this edit [1], if it were part of a larger pattern, could be mistaken for spam for two reasons: (1) that article's topic has nothing to do with RT, so there's no reason to digress into a commentary on RT's coverage (2) the source cited does not support the claim made, that a correspondent reported neutrally. It's a bit more ambiguous than that. Geogene (talk) 23:09, 21 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
