Hi Michael zasloff! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. |
I contributed to this discussion of trodusquemine. My group discovered the compound and characterized the initial picture of its pharmacology.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Michael zasloff (talk • contribs)
Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion edit
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. ChemNerd (talk) 22:23, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
- Hi Chem Nerd! I am the scientist who discovered squalalmine and I continue to study it, along with its pharmacology and clinical applications. I am the world's expert on this subject and I see no conflict of interest in my regular editing the Wiki page
- I did not create my Wikipedia page, but I have occasionally corrected or added to the science in order to update it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Michael zasloff (talk • contribs)
- There is another account named Mzasloff - do you operate it as well?
- Editing a biography about yourself is acceptable only if you are removing unambiguous vandalism or clear-cut and serious violations of our biography of living persons policy. Please avoid making substantial edits to the article about yourself unless it is for the aforementioned purposes. The reasons for this advice are explained further at Wikipedia is not about YOU and Wikipedia:Autobiography.
- We appreciate and encourage the contributions of subject-matter experts. However you should review Wikipedia:Expert editors to ensure that your edits conform to Wikipedia's fundamental policies.
- Also, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
- With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button (
or 
) located above the edit window.
- This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.--Drm310 🍁 (talk) 17:14, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- It is absolutely a conflict of interest in Wikipedia for you to edit content about yourself and to insert references to your own papers. Please actually read Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline at WP:COI and start abiding by it.. This goes for members of your lab or whoever the other active accounts are, that are adding promotional content about you. Jytdog (talk) 02:59, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
Hello, Michael zasloff. 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. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. 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. Jytdog (talk) 03:00, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
