Hello, Stephen Fried Egg. 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. See the COI 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 (you can use 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 which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. JamesBWatson (talk) 10:12, 22 June 2019 (UTC)

Future editing

Your creation of a new, prominently sited section at Economy of the Isle of Man#Entrepreneurship Ecosystem Development Strategy would suggest you have an unusually-keen interest in promoting the Isle of Man government. Your edit history is mostly one topic only, what Wikipedia calls SPA, that is a single purpose account used to promote certain ideas or topics. You have been advised above about conflict of interest editing - please also familiarise yourself with WP:SOAPBOXING relating to the over-promotion of Isle of Man government internal/external aspects at Economy of the Isle of Man with what some might think as over-detailed. I have added a notation to the section which suggests the content is unsuitable for an encyclopedia.

In addition, content such as "Understand our proposition in attracting more Digital nomad" indicates either/or copypaste violation from government sources or that you are involved. I have also noted you tried to create an article Startupmanufactory which name can be seen at LinkedIn as an advisor to Isle of Man government (Startupmanufactory website), showing the key individuals to be Matt Kuppers and Letitia Seglah both of whom are mentioned cited in references. Also please note all of the references you added were primary sources, which are not preferred. The section is unaltered presently, excepting the redlink you included to Startup Manufactory Ltd. This is just a friendly, custom-created note to guide you. Thank you (pinging JBW for info).--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 19:04, 5 January 2020 (UTC)

Reading Rocknrollmancer's message prompted me to look back at your editing history, including your deleted edits. I discovered that some of your edits duplicated verbatim content from previously deleted edits by an editor with the user name "Jennymiller". There was far too much overlap for it to have been chance coincidence. Can you say what the connection is? There are various possibilities, such as that you are the same person using another account, you are someone else collaborating with her, you are a different person contracted by the same organisation that previously contracted Jennymiller to edit on their behalf, and so on. Whatever the connection may be, please let us know. JBW (talk) Formerly JamesBWatson 21:00, 5 January 2020 (UTC)

Many thanks for all the advice and suggestions. Happy to look into this to help improving the article. Feel free to suggest any changes and edits. Many thanks. User:Stephen Fried Egg (talk) 8:17, 9 January 2020 (UTC)

@Stephen Fried Egg: Thank you for the response but that's not the answer to the specific queries raised by JBW above; do you have any connection to the aspects specifically queried - Startup Manufactory and Jennymiller (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log). Also, the Isle of Man government (any sector), and University College Isle of Man?

I have deleted the entire section due to blatant WP:PROMOTION until these queries are satisfied. This section does not appear to be the result of new-user activity, and being loaded with techno-babble, this amount of detail is unencyclopedic and should remain at dedicated-portals. It's not incumbent on regular Wikipedia editors to develop content for you, particularly when circumspect. Even if it survives, a radical precis is needed.
