Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Ccg82492. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
  • instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the 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, 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).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you.

Would you please point out areas of the article that do not present a neutral POV? As for the notability tag, the article has 30 references. Please advise.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Ccg82492 (talkcontribs) Reply

You have lots of references, sure, but you lots of references that are pretty bad - this article is relying primarily on blogs and press releases, which are not good sources. They're being used to support a list of products with features (and no criticisms, I note), which makes the article promotional overall. This also purports to be an article about a company, but most of the sources are about particular products - I know that seems a bit like splitting hairs, but per WP:NOTINHERITED, it matters. - MrOllie (talk) 14:55, 17 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
