John Alnwick

I see you have been quick to change my edit describing the FCE as "Reformed and Protestant", choosing the less descriptive Episcopal. I was only quoting these very adjectives as used in the FCE Constitution, Declaration of Principles, which no doubt you are familiar with. My 1936 edition of the Constitution and Canons Ecclesiastical has it and so does the present version on the FCE website. I therefore detect you have removed a source of slight embarrassment in having this as the opening Wiki line.

On a separate issue could you update the number of communicant members, and also should St Stephen's at Middlesborough now be back under the FCE list of churches rather than the Connexion, or hasn't the move been made final yet ?

Just keen to keep Wiki factual and neutral ! Willjo (talk) 18:48, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, John Alnwick. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Evangelical Connexion of the Free Church of England, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest 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 conflict of interest 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 which forms all or part of work 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. Longhair\^talk 19:39, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
