Conflict of Interest

Hello, Gunn Ben 66. 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. 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.104.163.147.121 (talk) 18:18, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

Your edits

Hello and welcome to wikipedia. As well as the conflict of interest issue, your edits to David Garrard (property developer) were problematic in a number of other ways: content needs to be verifiable by the inclusion of independent, reliable sources, written in a neutral tone and follow the style guidelines. If you intend to contribute to wikipedia on other articles, it is recommended that you read some of these core guidelines before you continue. Thanks, Melcous (talk) 19:29, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

I will add that we strive for articles to be accurate, fair, balanced and neutral – to accurately reflect the sourced, cited opinions of reliable sources. To that end, we can't have the subject of an article writing about himself or by proxy, as it is impossible for him to be an objective judge of his own notability, write about his life from the required neutral point of view, and rely only on information from third-party sources and not his own personal knowledge and experience.

Also, no one owns or controls the content of an article. Wikipedia has no interest in what the article's subject wants to say about himself or how he wants to be portrayed. Consensus is Wikipedia's fundamental model for editorial decision making, and is marked by addressing legitimate concerns held by editors through a process of compromise while following Wikipedia policies.

When the article's subject disagrees with its content, there are a number of ways to deal with problems, as described at WP:AUTOPROB. These can include starting a discussion on the article talk page, escalating it to dispute resolution, or contacting Wikipedia directly if there are legitimate legal concerns. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 15:36, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at David Garrard (property developer), you may be blocked from editing. I tried to the best of my ability to explain in my revert summary the need for you to gain consensus at Talk:David Garrard (property developer). Instead of heeding my advice, you chose to indirectly revert me and continue to add the content you want to the article. This conduct is unacceptable, especially in light of your conflict of interest in regards to the subject. SamHolt6 (talk) 14:22, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
