  Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Paula Barker, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mattythewhite (talk) 19:23, 7 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, PaulaBarker. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Paula Barker, 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 WP: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. Mattythewhite (talk) 19:23, 7 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Stop editing your own page

edit

Paula, I kindly request that you stop editing your own page and using it as a portfolio. Doing so is against Wikipedia's policies, and is just bad practice in general. Feel free to edit other parts of Wikipedia, but remember to remain neutral. Thank you! Ed6767 talk! 19:32, 7 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
