Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Matt Grodsky. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Aaron Lieberman, 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, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to 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 Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Longhair\talk 17:14, 9 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Help

edit

Hello. You posted a request for help at my talk page, which was quite vague and simply stated "I could use some help understanding how to update a page without violating any rules.". Your recent edits were reverted for being promotional and possibly affected by a conflict of interest you may have with the topic. The links above and some further Welcome information may assist you which I've posted below. -- Longhair\talk 17:29, 9 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
