  Hello, Philadelphia1933, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as EaglesPR1 (talk · contribs). Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who use multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 16:36, 1 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi @HickoryOughtShirt?4 - I work for the Philadelphia Eagles. I'm trying to add our community information to our team's Wikipedia page. What are the appropriate steps that need to be taken?

Hi, please read the conflict of interest guidelines below and note that you should not be editing any articles about your employer (see WP:PAID) but should instead propose any changes on the relevant talk page. If you do so, you are also required to disclose your employer as explained below. Thank you Melcous (talk) 07:25, 2 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Conflict of interest guidelines

edit

  Hello, Philadelphia1933. 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 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. Melcous (talk)
