Managing a conflict of interest edit

  Hello, Henk.muller. 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. Drmies (talk) 17:52, 5 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Your Work edit

Greetings! I've been checking your edits for XMOS articles because of your declared CoI. Your user page isn't completely clear: are you editing Wikipedia as part of your job, or are you simply an employee? It isn't a problem if you are paid to edit, and your contributions have, as far as I can tell, been fine anyway. Nevertheless, if you are being paid, the paid editing policy requires that you to disclose that. Compassionate727 (T·C) 13:22, 6 April 2018 (UTC)Reply


My Work edit

I am, (as of April 2017) CTO of XMOS, prior to that I was their Principal Technologist (January 2008), and prior to that I was an academic at the University of Bristol in the UK (March 1993).

I am editing these pages to provide a record of the technology in as far as it in the public interest. In the same way that I edit other pages on wikipedia. I happen to have more knowledge about those pages than about other pages.

I am not being paid to write those pages (or any other pages on Wikipedia for that matter); it is something I do, often out of hours, because in my opinion these products are notable enough to warrant an existence on Wikipedia. I am aware that I am writing about products that are made by the company that I work for. I am trying to provide objective and verifiable facts rather than hype. Of course, one person's fact is another person's hyperbole, and I am delighted for those to be corrected.

Alright, I just wanted to verify. Your user page made it clear that you work for Xmos, but was ambiguous on whether or not your edits were part of your work. The notes I need to make on the talk page when checking edits are slightly different between them; that's the only reason I ask. Compassionate727 (T·C) 14:38, 6 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
A direct COI. Please stop editing those pages, make editing suggestions on the Talk pages for non COI editors to assess and implement. Thanks. -Roxy, the PROD. . wooF 17:19, 15 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
I agree. You need to stop editing XMOS pages. You have a strong conflict of interest. Wikipedia does become a record of things, but it does so through the compilation of independent reporting. Editing articles about products by your company to provide a record of the technology is not the same. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 05:07, 16 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
