October 2019 edit

  Hello, I'm ToBeFree. I wanted to let you know that your addition of a "CareMessage" red link to Y Combinator has been undone because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising is against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 01:12, 19 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Managing a conflict of interest edit

  Hello, Pumpkin candle. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Draft:CareMessage, 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. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 01:14, 19 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
