Managing a conflict of interest
editHello, ETHSCommunications. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Evanston Township High School, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, please:
- avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your circle, your organization, its competitors, projects or products;
- instead propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
- when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- exercise great caution so that you do not violate 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).
Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 14:36, 14 February 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for changing your username; note that doing so does not remove the conflict of interest you seem to have. Future significant changes to the page about your school should be discussed with the community on the article talk page before proceeding. Please review the above post about conflict of interest for more information; if you have any questions, please post them here.
I would suggest that you not post "our" in the article as that is unencyclopedic. 331dot (talk) 15:15, 14 February 2016 (UTC)
