Conflict of interest editing

Hello, AdamKing8484. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Draft:England's Economic Heartland Strategic Alliance, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
• disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:15, 30 December 2017 (UTC)

Hi AdamKing8484. I saw your question at the Wikipedia Teahouse and have added the above template just for reference. The template contains blue links to relevant Wikipedia pages that I suggest you take a look at. Although Wikipedia does not explicitly prohibit conflict of interest editing, it is something highly discouraged because it can lead to serious problems if left unchecked. The most important of the above links has to do with paid editing, so please make sure you take the time to carefully read through that one. This can be a bit tricky to assess when you're an employee of the organization you're writing about; even if you're not be directly paid to create a Wikipedia article per se and are just doing it as part of your job so to speak, you might still be considered to be a paid editor. You might want to ask for more specific feedback at WP:COIN.

In addtion to links in the above template, you might also want to take a look at WP:OWN, WP:PSCOI, and WP:CORP. The first one is useful to know about because subject of articles do not have any final editorial control over article content the second is just some more general information about COI editing; and the third has to do with Wikipedia notability and how it is applied to companies and organizations.

The last link is important because Wikipedia notability is basically what determines whether a stand-alone article about a company, etc. should be accepted into Wikipedia, and a lack of Wikipedia notability is the primary reason while drafts are declined or articles are deleted. Notability is assessed on a case-by-case basis and the fact the other similar Wikipedia articles may already exist does not automatically mean one more such article should be added to the encyclopedia. It could mean that these other articles should in fact be deleted.

If you have any questions on any of this, feel free to ask below or at the Teahouse. -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:36, 30 December 2017 (UTC)
